[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] elkloso:
Hey guys,

can someone suggest me a good rom for HTC Touch Diamond. It should be Windows Mobile 6.5 with HTC Sense and it should be fast and use low memory.

I found it very great if i could configure some Icons on the Home site like the energy rom (it is very slow and use many memory).

Sorry about by bad english, I am from Germany ;)

Know someone such a rom?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Marickian:
right ... i want me too .. freea i think is ok .. now i have energy ... but u are right (it is very slow and use many memory).

i use it for some months now and never change it.

Its fast and stable. If you dont like stok roms, try to instal SPB Mobile Shell 3.5.5., you will love it ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] elkloso:
Thank you.

The best Rom I found is the rom called "Mannis ROM V1.30" (I cant post Links, because I haven´t eight posts) but I think it´s not interesting for you because it´s German. It is very stable and fast.

I know that this has been posted in the Samsung Focus forum here BUT since I have an LG this seems to be a WP7 general problem.

Does anyone have tricks or tips to turn this sound off? Even when turning the system sound down to 0 and set the profile to vibrate, the shutter sound is still LOUD and clear.

I guess we'll just have to wait until we have root folder access to reach that wav file to mute it.
[Windows Phone 7 General] arturobandini:
Very annoying.

It is probably for stupid legal reasons. So you can annoy everybody when you want to take pictures during a professional meeting.

http://social.answers.microsoft.com...7/thread/8d4b3623-a796-456c-a43b-c51f7f7074f3

There's a trick I think. Launch a song on Zune, Pause. Take a picture.

Hope MS can solve this.
[Windows Phone 7 General] pillsburydoughman:
yea I heard it was for legal reasons, same on the blackberry. The weird thing is my ex's iphone didn't have the shutter sound and she snapped unsuspecting pictures all the time
[Windows Phone 7 General] fb401:
Interesting trick but it didn't work for me.

Legal reasons eh? You would think that MS would have used the mui's loaded in the WP7 rom to determine where it's illegal and where it's not. If my WP7 rom is 0409, give me the option to have the sound or not.
[Windows Phone 7 General] tai4de2:
On the HD7 (and maybe other HTC devices?) the shutter sound respects the volume control.
[Windows Phone 7 General] keyboardP:
Seems like my HTC Mozart respects the master volume as well. Turn that down to zero and there's no shutter sound.
[Windows Phone 7 General] fb401:
Hmmm...so it seems like LG & Samsung are the culprits. If that's the case then the ONLY way we'll have this fixed is to manually edit the wav file that makes the sound. I highly doubt LG and Sammy care enough to work on this even if we raise a stink.
[Windows Phone 7 General] water911:
Then do it.

XDA, tear down that shutter sound!
[Windows Phone 7 General] frighte:
Found working solution... for me anyways

Hey everybody, I've been trying to get around the issue for a while myself and found this: karnicki.eu/?p=10 for the omnia7. It did the trick for me and whenever I set the phone to silent the shutter stays in STFU mode! I fiddled with the sound settings before but it might be something magical about the 1000/-1000 combo. Please test and confirm.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vangrieg:
If someone has an unlocked device with TouchXplorer installed and willing to experiment, there are two files:

\Windows\camerashutter_mirage.wav

\Windows\shutter.wav

that you might want to replace with .wav files containing just silence.

I'm not sure if it's possible to do, but may be worth a try.
[Windows Phone 7 General] krjcook:
turn your phone volume down then take a picture, usually works for me.
[Windows Phone 7 General] kapanak:

Just loaded this on to my phone after using NFX for a while. Everything is great except I am having a couple of issues with apps. I have ESPN scorecenter which force closes as it tries to open. Foursquare will open but when I try to sign in it says that their servers are down, but this has a been three days now. Does anyone else either have these problems or not have these problems or have an idea of what could be wrong?

Also I was wanting to use magic smoke as a live wallpaper but it force closes every time it tries to load. Any suggestions here?

Thanks for the help

EDIT - Running Cyanogen 6.1
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] il Duce:
I don't know if you found this yesterday, but over in impaler's q+a thread there was talk about espn. Apparently they (espn) broke the version you had and put out an update, which fixed the issue for most people, I don't use those apps personally, but if you haven't updated through the market yet, go do it, it should fix your issue.
[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Yup, newest update fixed the FC issue with Scorecenter. Don't know about Foursquare, but Scorecenter is fixed for sure. :)
[Epic 4G General] christophocles:
I am LUCKY to get 8 hours of battery life on my brand new stock Epic.. I usually get 4-6 hours. It will NOT last through a normal day of work without putting it on the charger around lunchtime. I take it off the charger around 6:30 AM and I am usually home by 4PM and have to immediately go and charge my phone.

Even if I put it on airplane mode, kill all running applications, and shut the screen off to standby, the phone still seems to suck battery life down very quickly (~5% in 20 minutes on airplane mode, wtf???).. So airplane mode doesn't help.. And I really DON'T want to put it in airplane mode to conserve battery because then my phone is completely useless -- it won't even ring when my wife calls..

Is my battery defective? Please tell me it is... This can't be right..

Are there processes still running that use lots of CPU, even when the stock sprint "task manager" program shows that nothing is running? Is there anything I can do to improve this if I root the phone? How about custom roms? I would really like to run Froyo/Gingerbread anyway.. If anyone has any suggestions to help to make my battery life not such an EPIC FAIL, I would greatly appreciate it.

EDIT: Also wanted to comment on the SLOW CHARGING. With the stock Samsung wall charger, it takes at least a couple of hours to get a full charge. With a USB cable plugged into a PC overnight, it only gets to about 50%. Compared with my previous phone, the HTC TP2, this is really really REALLY slow. It charged in 30-60 minutes and the battery lasted much longer.

I did notice that Samsung only provides a 0.7 amp charger, versus a 1.0A charger for the TP2. Why does Samsung limit the charge current like this? And apparently there is no nueBattery mod driver for android :(

UPDATE: JuiceDefender looks very promising. Installed the free version and my battery is only down to 95% after one hour. Thanks for the suggestion.
[Epic 4G General] sleebus.jones:
FWIW, I'm getting about the same 8ish hours on mine running DK28. I'm losing about 4% an hour without touching it. I'm seeing some people claiming insane battery life (18 hours with heavy browsing on wifi) I wish I knew how they were managing that.
[Epic 4G General] knyque:
Wait, it won't even ring when you're wife calls? and you're complaining?
[Epic 4G General] ghlu:
First, the airplane mode means you switch the phone to airplane mode first then switch it back so you won't have time without signal problem which can cause battery drain.

I am able to get 10+ hrs at least by doing the following

1) use airplane mode trick so no TWS

2) use titanium backup to remove a bunch of stock junk

3) use titanium to freeze certain applications (DRM, MediaHub, Qik etc)

4) Have as few applications as possible that constantly pull data
[Epic 4G General] socos25:
Just yesterday I had 1 day 17 hours before switching

Yesterday when it finally gave up the ghost with the battery indicator blinking i checked my stats.

I had 1 day, 17 hours unplugged. Screen time was around 2 hours and some minutes. I had 45 minutes of talk time.

One thing i will add is I purchased a charger with two batteries off Ebay. Previously when charging with the stock charger as soon as I pulled it off the charger it would read 97%. With the seperate charger it reads 100% for quite awhile before it starts to drop.

And for the record I purchased this charger and two batteries of Ebay for a winning bid of $0.01, plus $9.95 S&H. It was a steal in my opinion.
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
Unless you are getting near 12 hours of battery life, one of 3 things is occurring:

1) You are using the phone an insane amount

2) You messed something up

3) The battery is defective

For the record, its almost always number 2.

I suggest doing a Factory reset, which will wipe everything off the phone. Then without installing anything or setting your facebook to update every 15 seconds, see how long the battery life lasts. If it is still only 4-6 hours, then your battery is most likely defective.
[Epic 4G General] Kcarpenter:
well of course it won't ring if your wife calls if its in airplane mode. That radio is turned off. ;)
[Epic 4G General] Koadic:
8 hours? That's it? I wouldn't call that normal, but that's just me...

I just plugged my phone in after 4 1/2 days (108 hours) running on a stock 1500maH battery, running Quantum Rom 1.5 (DK17), no special apps running to disable data (aka Juice Defender, etc.), not in airplane mode at all, with the DRM software running, in other words, a more or less 'Stock' configuration (taking into account any differences in the base Rom).

Granted, I barely used the phone in the last 4 days though :D
[Epic 4G General] sleebus.jones:
I'll do that. For the record, I've got fbook set to never update, and seesmic once every 6 hrs.
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
LOL at screen on for 52 minutes total. That is 11.5 minutes a day.
[Epic 4G General] Koadic:
Like I said, barely touched my phone in the last 4 days... been feeling a little under the weather so have been at home a lot and in bed doing all my internet stuff and gaming (pogo) on a laptop instead of on my phone. ;)
[Epic 4G General] kristv:
Since I updated to the leaked Froyo, my battery life has plummeted. It lasts maybe 1/3-1/2 as long as it used to. Turning off 3G has helped immensely though, so that must be the culprit. I used to be able to leave 3G on while at work and make it to bedtime before having to charge it. Or if I shut it off at night (which I usually do), it would make it through my commute to work the next morning. Now, I'm lucky to get through the work day unless I turn off 3G. Huge difference in battery life for me since updating. I'm hoping they fix this in the official release of Froyo.
[Epic 4G General] sleebus.jones:
Well, I've recently found out that if you flash via update.zip while the USB is plugged in, you'll mess up the battery calibration of your device. This is what I did, and i'm pretty sure the cause of my problems. I did find a fix, and here it is:

There is a shorter version that also seems to work well:

From what I've been told, you don't have to wipe the stats (you need root to do that) but it helps if you can.

I think this may also stem from interrupting the inital charge of the device. I know I did this on both my wife's device and mine (plus my added fubar of flashing with the USB in). Anyway, hopefully I can report some good news tomorrow.

I get 4 or 5 hours if that. I can barely make it to 6. But i probably use my phone more than the average person. Because i take public transportation and browse, stream, email and have 4g connected on my commute back and fourth.
[Epic 4G General] christophocles:
I've been running JuiceDefender for about 5 hours now and I am loving it.. I still have 75% and I can still receive calls just fine.. It turns off data when the screen is off, but turns it on at scheduled times (default is 1 min every 15 min) so that your emails/twitters/etc can update like normal. The paid version has even more features so I bought it..

Never mind im dumb for not reading his post. Already answered my question sorry.
[Epic 4G General] kenvan19:
Decided not to quote the whole thing but I'm in the process of doing this right now! Took 2 hours to drain my batt from full (running everything and keeping my phone searching for gps constantly in a place where it would also be searching for signal makes quick work of a battery!).
[Epic 4G General] MaxPatlick:
*golf clap*
[Epic 4G General] christophocles:
Yes, with juice defender I can receive calls and my gmail/twitter/facebook/etc. are all already up-to-date whenever I pick up my phone. It works exactly as before, except my battery is not constantly being drained now.

I guess the downsides are that I might not get a new email notification for 15 minutes, and that there is a service running in the background that may cause some slowdown. Neither has been a problem for me so far. I highly recommend this application for Epic 4G owners. Problem solved, basically.
[Epic 4G General] Toast95135:
I usually get 12hrs with moderate use (~2hrs with screen on, half of that is usually on the browser). I turn background data off bc I don't have a twitter and I rarely check Facebook so when I do I just use the browser.

I also noticed that wifi burns more battery on DK28, on 2.1 I would hardly lose any battery on standby with wifi, now I get a 3-4% drain per hour... But with 3g on now I lose less then 1% an hour, it used to be a battery hog.
[Epic 4G General] diego1985:
Ok that's fine with me. I just start using a couple of hours ago, I'm impressed it actually uses the best network for me and everything. I love how it automatically uses wifi when im at home.
[Epic 4G General] sryans2004:
Even if you barley use the phone.. Thats still insane battery life.. I have yet to hit the 24 hour mark.. Highest I have reached was 18 hours, and that was tweaking it up a lil. Today I got 15 hours without using any tweaks.. I do see a improvement in battery life on my phone using dk28
[Epic 4G General] sleebus.jones:
Well, I went through the process I described and it really didn't seem to reset the calibration. Using "spare parts" from the marketplace and clicking on "battery information" I could see that the phone was calling a full charge at 96 percent. If you show a full charge at 100%, you are good to go. However, if you show Battery scale at 100 and battery level at some number less than that, this should help you out.

1. Keep the battery information displayed so you can see what's going on.

2. Plug phone in. Let it charge until it stops on its own. (I usually keep tapping the screen to keep it showing, you may want to change your screen timeout so you don't have to mess with it.)

3. Look at battery level. If it is less than battery scale, unplug the charger, wait a tick and then plug the charger back in.

4. Repeat steps 2 - 3 until you get battery scale and battery level to match.

Best part, no rebooting needed.

This should get you pretty decent. My battery voltage is now showing 4180mV when charging. I know that's not the max 4192 that you can get, so I'm going to do 2 - 3 a few more times and see if it will come up a bit. I do know now that I get to 100% at full charge when I was only getting to 96% at full charge, so that's a 4% improvement.

So anyway, hopefully this helps out some other folks, I'll let ya know how it goes with me.
[Epic 4G General] Comando156:
Yea I have the same 8 hours battery life problem no matter what rom,kernal combination. Froyo or enclair. Still battery life sucks. Have tried stock settings, killing the media services, evrything is set for manual update no auto... I have been thinking of going to get a battery swap...

[Epic 4G General] bryanfritz1:
How long does your phone stay charged to 100% for, it seems like my charge drops from 100 to 98 or 97 % real fast.
[Epic 4G General] pilby:
Odin flash fixed it

I've been all over the board with battery consumption, depending on my setup.

When I got the phone, I was a little disappointed with battery consumption, but found it workable. I would take it off the charger in the morning, and if I barely used it throughout the day, I could get home 10 hours later and have it still be on (but beeping). In order to use it for anything more than the occasional text message or 15 minutes of talk time per day, I had to use a charger at my desk at work, and/or a car charger.

I used the update.zip to upgrade to DK28 (without wiping first) and battery life went thru the floor. I almost had to have it on the charger constantly. With nothing really happening (wifi, GPS & 4G off, no extra apps going) and me not using it at all, it would consistently drain away 50% in 2 hours. I found this to be maddeningly unacceptable. I tried the battery calibration trick, made sure to do the airplane mode trick after every boot, uninstalled apps like crazy, shut down all but the barest services, and nothing helped. I thought for sure my battery was just toast. And not only did the battery drain like crazy, but it seemed to be taking far longer to charge.

I finally yesterday did a fresh Odin flash of DK28 using the tar. That has made all the difference in the world! Since I did that, I have yet to get below 75% because with light usage it only drains about 1-2% per hour. Not only that, but the home screen and all my apps are much snappier and more responsive than they were on DI18 or my first attempt at DK28. I'm now very happy with DK28.
[Epic 4G General] ort84:
Lately my battery life on the DK28 froyo rom has been pretty horrible. 8 hours of standby eats an easy 30% of my battery. If the wifi was left on it goes up to 40%

I really don't want to go back to 2.1 but might have to. :mad:
[Epic 4G General] sleebus.jones:
My battery life is considerably improved from yesterday. Doing a WipeWipeWipe in the morning yesterday seemed to make a pretty remarkable difference. I know it's said that it doesn't wipe the battery calibration, but it did something, because my battery lasted until about 9 pm last night, when it was usually crying to be plugged in at 2 pm. For the record, I updated to DK28 via the 3-button method and did not WipeWipeWipe (at the time) or do a factory reset. I've yet to do a factory reset.

So that was one thing, but the calibration I did this morning + my modified procedure in post #23 seems to have really made a difference. I'm at 73% now at 2pm, and usually I'd be plugging in right now. I haven't been on it a whole lot today, but that's a pretty impressive improvement.

So this has taken me from a "probably need to take this back to the store" to "this is going to be OK". Good news for me, as I really wanted to hang on to this phone.

So:

1. If you haven't done the WipeWipeWipe yet, do it.

2. If you haven't tried the calibration + my post #23 update, do it.

Let me know how it works out for ya.

And is it possible to root it with dsixda's kitchen?

Because my phone is rooted and i don't want to lose it
[Legend General] BlaY0:
Why do you need this RUU? You have previous RUUs and OTAs so you can build the latest release yourself.
[Legend General] matn013:
Haven't thought about that.

So I just have to take an old RUU and replace all the files with the newer ones from the OTA Froyo update and then root it with the kitchen?

Or do I have to root it first?
[Legend General] BlaY0:
It is not that simple since OTA updates contain binary patches to existent files. So you would have to patch the majority of files with bspatch utility...
[Legend General] matn013:
Damn, hoped it would be easy :(

DO you have a link for the bspatch utility because I can't find it.

Right this is a common limitation of man providers with pre paid plans. To monitor and control minutes the forwarding for calls is locked into carrier voicemail and unable to be changed.

If you want a different voicemail you will need to be on a full regular plan.
