I've asked this a few times but to no avail. It's not anyone's problem but mine but I don't know how to fix it.
I've only done two mods to the phone.
The disabling of the auto-attach.
And the Boost TFL3D Performance mod#1 on the mod list.
My problem is simple.
The phone lags....
For example, when you click the people icon and then click your contact list, the damn phone takes forever to pull up on the screen.
The reason I sold my Touch Cruise is because this phone had a faster processor.
Please, can anyone tell me how to increase the speed of this slow azz phone?
If I can't do anything about it, I'm buying an iphone or something else.
Thanks much,
Mark
Certainly the best way to speed up the phone is to flash a custom ROM to it. There are many out there that are MUCH faster than the stock ROMs. I highly recommend Dutty's V1.2 rom, but there are certainly others.

I have owned most HTC phones and after tweaking this is my fave and fastest so far...
Firstly what what ROM version are you using?
First post. Glad to meet u all.
I had official Vodafone spanish ROM until yesterday. My last phone was a QTEK s100, so no Wireless, no GPS, no Gsensor, no light sensor, no WM6.1, but it was fine, speed was OK. Diamond had poor speed compared to S100.
I flashed with the new official ROM from HTC and it seems a new phone. Try it.

I'm using the latest ROM 1.37 I think.... I installed it a few weeks ago.
I'll take a look at other roms.

Cool, I highly recommend flashing to Duttys ROM 1.2 at the Mo 1.3 should be with us in the next few days - I understand your frustration m8. I have been using these toys for years and they always need tweaking (but thats become half the fun)
What I will say is that you will se significant increases in speed from 1.37 which in honesty I thought was ****e and bug ridden so no surprises at your dissapointment. We are still a little way away from the perfect ROM but every time gets closer - rest assured. I think you will be pleasantly surprised after flashing to Duttys.
If you need anything else just shout shout.
NB. enable all the power management functions in schapps config and your battery will also last a hell of alot longer.

Sorry my bad. I was referring to the thread starter
The latest ROM is 1.93 - and even without additional tweaks, it speeds up the diamond significantly. Make sure you flash that before tweaking and than complain again.

I second that. 1.93 is the Rom all Diamonds should have. Upgraded mine and im very happy with it. Phones very speedy now. Good luck!

Thanks Ta, just an update.... I installed (and donated) to Dutty's new ROM. All I can say is THANKS... Great install, great ROM, works fantastic.
Now if I could just change the "video call" softkey for "contacts" in the phone screen, I'd be super happy.
Thanks again,
Mark

Go here and download the softkey manager(it's free) http://www.fantasticbytes.com/downloads.php (make sure you tick the "HTC Diamond Mode" checkbox on the main screen).
Doesn't that soft key manager just change your today screen softkeys? I think the OP was referring to the dialer screen soft keys...

Can't help you but hope you're sure other phones will be faster. I thought with the 500 MHz processor in my Mio A701 it would be very fast compared to other WM phones at the time just to realise they were all slow.

Hi Cassatta, I'm from Genève, CH and using a Kaiser configured with Orange but I never can use video call, I don't know why. Let's try together tomorrow (20/08/2008).
By the way, which ROM do you have? Did you backup the original from Orange Switzerland??? I need it to configure my keyboard...

I am using the original from from Orange: 1.82.71.1 FRE.
Tomorrow is impossible for me (no 3G where I am).
Could please give me your phone number and I'll call you next week.
Good thread to collect some phone numbers
Sorry all!!
I have a problem with my Kaiser and it is sent today to the Orange support.
See you later!!
Bye!!
In the US?
Anyone in the states wanna give this a try?
Don't you need a frontal camera to do video calls?
Not sure on the US version of the Kaiser, but on other branded phones. You can use the main camera, but have to be using a mirror or keep turning the phone around.

Hello Cassatta.
By the way, could you please dump your original ROM or ask someone (Anonymous e.g.) on how to do it?
Moreover, I called Orange CH to have a detail about my SIM card that is ok for video calls. The only answer they could give me was: "soft reset you phone and wait for 10 minutes before it works..."
If anyone else has an idea of the problem...
I'm currently using HyperDragon III Pro released 21/09/2008 (i think).
I send you my phone number by pm.
Regards,
Neo
What can I do with this phone other then what it does out of the box?
Theres so little information and work I can find on it.
hey buddy,
there isnt alot of things that can be done with the phone right now.. which company do u have it from?
the first would be App Unlock your phone to be able to install applications .. jsut search on google "app unlock S620" and follow that procedure...
I have a wm6.0 running so i have a couple of skins and stuff installed... most of the stuff that can work on the Vox Forums can work on libra as well. besides the roms ofcourse.
if you got any other questions holla for sure... i know it was a pain for me to find any information on the phone!

surprised me too! the poor phone still doesn't have enough ram and is missing wifi, otherwise it would be perfect.
I just picked up one of these phones yesterday and am still getting used to not having a touch screen. If I'm not mistaken this phone does have the GPS. What's the process for getting it to work with Google Maps, etc?
Thanks
no this phone doesnt have gps....
it has the processor which is needed to have gps... but apparently it doesnt work with any company...
iv looked around for a fix .. but no one has found out one...
and 5800 doesnt have wifi built in either
AGPS vs Libra/s720
Sorry to contradict you, but hie phone has AGPS and it does work (I have it working right now)
To be sure we are talking of the s720/LIBRA 100.

I changed to WM 6.5 last night. I had the AT&T 6.1 rom before.
With both ROMs, my camera is just black. Doesn't show anything at all (not even darkly.
Any ideas? It's probably not software if it doesn't change when I update the ROM right?
I don't care for 6.5 much, so I'm going to try another 6.1 rom in a minute...
Thanks
Your radio ROM is incorrect for whatever hardware/ROM revision you are using. Experiment around with different radios until you get one that allows your camera to work.
Nice of you to search for the oldest problem out there.

Thanks for the advice. I'll just assume in the future that if I search and find nothing, that I must have used the wrong terms, and shouldn't bother asking in the future. Glad you saved me.
I did search. Now, when I searched "radio rom camera problem" (after the 1st response) I got tons of hits. When I searched "8925 camera is black only" I got nothing relevant. It's new to me.
Well, oddly enough, I encountered a much more serious problem with the ROM I was using, so I went back to 6.1 (I don't like 6.5 for some reason)
After loading the AT&T 6.1 rom, the camera works...
Thats because the ATT ROM has an included radio, which evidentally is one that works with your hardware revision and enables the camera.

Ok- So Radio rom can be flashed with or without the OS rom? Good to know.
The radio rom has to match the hardware? Or the OS?
I'd like to give the WM6.5 rom another try, if I can get everything to work

Alot of the stuff I'm reading I'm remembering some of... it's been along time... lots of "oh yeah...!" moments... I want to be making my own roms in no time.. I guess I'm a few years late to the party... sad that they are killing Windows Mobile...

A couple years late to the Kaiser party, but I still love my Kaiser and it my not be as flashy and my be a tick slower and may not have the spacious screen that the HD2 has, but with a custom rom and a little tweaking, it does everything An HD2 does, and I love my keyboard.
Windows Mobile isn't dead, it was just taking a long vacation while Steve and Bill and the others were playing the " fat cat " billionaire roles to the hilt while the company went down the toilet.
Hopefully Windows Phone 7 series is the start of a resurgence that will integrate Windows, Windows Mobile, Zune OS and XBox into a fully integrated powerhouse, before it is too late.
Maybe Apple overtaking them is exactly what they need.

It was also on the rom flashing tutorial
7. After I flash a Rom I dont have any sound in calls and the camera is black
The Radio has to match the version of Rom you flash i.e. WM6.1, an incorrect Radio will give sound and camera problems. Read The Ultimate Radio Thread to find a Radio that matches the Rom there are lots to try on there if one doesnt work then try another.

Hello Guys,
I have an XDA Diamond for few months. I placed my simcard in the diamond and it has signal(UMTS,GSM). But suddenly after ca. two months it lost ever and ever again the signal. Now I have definitely no signal. I flashed hard spl and tried many Roms and Radio Roms, but this did´t work. I think it´s a hardware problem. Now I´m very mad about this crappy phone, but I´m fourteen and have not so many money to buy a new one. Can anyone help me?
hey guys, why nobody helps. Xda-developers is great, but my diamond has absolutely no network. I tried all possible things i can do, but nothing works.
PLEASE HELP

If it was the original stock-rom of the brand from your diamond (rom+radio) and it didn't work, I think also it is a hardware-failure ...
