it has about 6 months, and i think i send it back to warrenty.
yah, either your pushing way to hard or the lcd isn't being supported correctly. Definately try to get a warranty fix on that.
The answer to your question is right here. Good reading.
lol @ NotATreoFan
Reminds me of those old goosbump books where you had to flip to a certain page only to be sent back to the page you were just on.

now whats the point of that? Who nominated you the xda-police?
Seriously the majority of your posts are telling people to search, and scolding people for posting a question thats been answered before.. why don't u be productive and head them in the right direction or just not post at all!
how is that not being productive. Don't we send our children to school for several years so that they may be educated? Don't we want them to be educated so that they may succeed on their own, without leaning on other peoples knowledge? Aren't the teachers of these children being productive?
All we are doing is trying to drill into everyones head to use the search function.
I say NotATreoFan FTW!!!!!

Some times I can see the screen being indented when I tap it. This happens in bright light and I'm not sure if it's not an illusion caused by the shape of the stylus.
I deleted the other thread.

I can understand if someone 'bumps' their post if they don't get a answer within a reasonable amount of time. But it's just plain rude to create a new thread 20 minutes after the first one.
As far as being the "xda-police", well that is just stupid. I do not scold people. I simply remind them that search is there for a reason. I have often said that regardless of what my title says (since its purely by post count), I consider myself only a few steps above noob status... since my Tilt is only my 5th WM device I've owned.
The difference is that I know how to search (on any site, not just XDA) for what I am looking for.
I didn't mind the noob posts of just a few months ago. They asked their question, however redundant, and usually got an answer pretty quick. However, what we are dealing with now if a special breed of n00b. Some of them go as far as starting their post with "i'm a n00b, and can't be bothered to search" and then think that just because they put "noobie question" in the subject line, we'll forgive their ignorance and answer their question post-haste.
Anyway, back to my original point. Clearly my first post was meant as a joke. You seem to be the only person who didn't get it.
Sure, let's continue arguing about how bad people are and how noobs won't search, when it'd take like 20 seconds and 5% of the effort of arguing to just answer the damn question.
But that'd be boring right? Besides, don't you want to feel all smart and "guru" by "pwning noobs" and showing them how stupid and lazy they are? That makes us feel so much better in the end. One's gotta self-assure somehow, right?
... and I must say I'm pretty impressed. Unlike what appears to be general consensus, I'm pretty much sold on Touchflo 3D, bút I still have some problems and questions some might be able to answer. Some of the questions I know are still unanswerable, some have already been answered, but I'm just writing them down for completeness. The ones that have been answered have been edited in for future reference.
- Can Opera be removed or can the Browser globe on the Internet page of TF3D be linked to Internet Explorer?
According to KukurikU, the answer to this question remains no for now. Probably, a modified ROM can change this behaviour. NChief says that using Opera some more would be a better idea, as he feels its a more capable browser.
- Can the background of TF3D be changed on all pages, instead of only the Home screen?
Not yet. This might be in future updates.
- Can we add custom cities to the TF3D Weather application?
No, according to a thread about this question, for now it appears HTC is using a DNS referral to forward our weather inquiries to AccuWeather in a special layout. Using any city in this script that is not listed in the normal list yields no result as the whole thing just reverts.
- Can you set the SMS/E-mail pages in TF3D to only display unread SMS/E-mail?
Not yet. This might be an option when TouchFlo 3D is more heavily modded.
- Can I have the battery indicator show at the top of the screen while TF3D is running?
According to most people, it should already be there. Sadly, it is not for me. I'll investigate this some more to find out if there is a particular reason for this.
- Can anyone tell me whether the bottom USB connector on the Diamond is a modified 5-pin USB mini connector, and whether such a plug can be used to charge the phone (in case I lose my original powercable).
Again, according to KukurikU, the original cable is a modified 5 pins mini-USB adapter, I'm going to take the guess that the remaining pins are used for audio/feedback purposes.
- What are generally accepted must-have games, and generally accepted must-have applications for WM6 / Diamond?
Sadly, KukurikU felt he was not intelligent enough to answer this question. Until now, I've found that Advanced Configuration is one handy utility to have (especially in combination with the quite useful tweaks topic), and that alternate GPS software (ie besides Google Maps) is much lighter on the battery.
I also have some remarks and comments:
- Hard-SPL Dev + TLR's ROM are on my Diamond and they're great improvements. They stopped me from returning my Dutch, crippled ROM without handwriting support, slow, laggy stuff.
- Overall impressed. Good battery-life, fast, responsive, uncluttered, very broad range of possibilities, wow.
In case I asked any stupid questions: yes, I'm new. Sue me.
Why, I'm glad to see so many enthusiastic replies . Let me add another question then:
- Is it possible to minimize TT7 while still having it use the voices to indicate the route (ie. to listen music and TT7 at the same time), and if not, does another navigation program support this?
It appears this should be possible, and in some cases I find it does work, in some cases it doesn't. If I find out what way to get both running is best, I'll edit it in.
- Learn to use opera and you will notice that it's WAY better than IE
- The background can not be changed on all TF3D pages (yet?)
- You can not add custom cityes to the TF3D Weather application
- I have learnd that I can use any mini-USB cabel for chargeing(don't think its recomended tho)
That's the questions I can answer, hope I got them right.
btw, try searching the forum

I already stated in the first post that many of these have already been answered, but that I'm listing them for completeness. Please, if you want to point the finger at anyone not reading, please point it at yourself. Especially for you, I've been so free to bolden the text I'm referring to in my first post.
Besides that, I must say the search function on this forum is pretty useless - thanks to people posting those same questions over and over. For one of my questions, I ended up going back to page 13. I'm glad this forum is so inviting to people with questions, I mean, after all, a forum is not for asking things, is it now? Of course not, that would be absurd. Especially seeing that to find the answers to some of these questions, you have to spend almost an hour digging through multi-page threads in a 50-page topic list. It would be extremely hard to answer those questions for someone who knows the answer to these, I know, but honestly, I take it someone can put in the heroic and epic effort to at least try? Now, if there were a sticky with questions answered too often, that'd be a first step in the good direction. A bit like the, may I add, excellent list of tweaks. Do you hear anyone ask for tweaks besides in that topic? Of course not, there's a practical resource for going through that.
Nevertheless, I would like the answers on the questions not answered yet. There are at least three I know have not been answered yet, or of which I could not find the answer. At least, thanks for the ironic reply.

you are funny (not going to say ridiculous).

this is a good example of life-death question. here is an answer: you should have it all the time, it is already there! duh!? look again...
i think you didn't notice that the great majority of posters here are fighting with really technical issues or waiting for help in critical issues, not to mention the ones that are developing tools and applications to make our diamond more reliable and fast. the forum is full with "after 1 week", "i have it for 2 weeks" complains and reviews. don't want to be mean or sarcastic (and it is hard for me not to) but could wait a little more or search a little more here and in other places?
I agree with tha-rami, the search function doesn't always provide the results you want and this is a forum i.e. a medium for a free and open exchange of views. Yes, a search is most peoples' first option but I for one simply don't have the time to spend hours and hours trawling through each page and topic.
Have a little patience and don't assume that a poster hasn't searched - two days ago the search function didn't work at all for me. If you can't be constructive in a reply then you have to question why you're replying at all!

On my previous Touch and Touch Dual and also Ameo devices ive had Tom Tom Navigator 6 minimised with music playing and the Voice directions have still worked.
I have John Cleese as the Voice on my device and its great listening to him chatting all over some dance music! hehe!
Regarding the custom city in Weather, see this thread... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=397599
I agree with both sides of the argument.
It took me a few seconds to search for Custom City part of the Forum, but ive also had problems searching for items.
It would be nice if there was a thread started, that literally was edited and updated with all the common questions. (I suppose thats what the Wiki's for, but i never look at it as its never usually up to date) no other posts were added just 1 long 1st post that had a list of all the useful threads in it and what they were.
It can be hard trawling through many pages of threads trying to find what you want, but in my experience its worth it! Some of the replys to people asking questions can be a bit sarcastic tho...
eg
Search the Forum
Try Searching
or
Have you thought about Clicking on Search?
But i understand where these people are coming from, they have all searched through the forums and looked for what they want. Maybe it does take a little longer but im hoping that moderators will begin to tidy things up on here as there are alot of duplicate posts and information.
I think maybe the Forum should have a "Diamond Reviews" or "Reviews and Experiences" section added in. That way all the people that want to voice their opinions can do in their own part of the forum, plus this will free up some of the General Diamond discussions. Just an idea, please dont flame me for my opinion.
Anyway, I agree that XDA Developers is an excellent source of information for all things Diamond. All good! Glad its here and glad there are so many helpful people on here. Nice one!

If you already knew the answers and were really interested in "posting for completeness", you'd have posted the answers too. More to the point, how exactly is the community here best served by posting the same old questions yet again, under yet another post with a completely nondescript title?

you can explain to them, you can beg, you can ridicule them you even can insult .....no results..they'll never quit.
they just don't get it. they don't know that there are rules or maybe they know but don't give a f...
The arrogance is outstanding! There are just three sub-forums here for the Diamond so if you super smart phone geeks want to have your own sub-forum I suggest you start one - 'uber geek' or similar. This is a forum as previously stated and some seem to spend a great deal of time putting an individual down rather than pointing them in the right direction. Don't mention the search facility, it's poor. This evening I searched for 'GPS latitude' (I wanted to see if I could get raw lat & long without installing TomTom, Co-pilot or something similar). The result of the search pointed me to a thread of multiple pages - I got to page 13 before I gave up without any mention of anything relevant.
I give up quite a bit of my time suporting people via the Microsoft newsgroups for Vista, Outlook and wireless networks in the full knowledge that most posters don't have the knowledge that I do in these areas but, not once have I arbitarily decided that I'm smarter than them. No doubt in some cases I will be and in some cases I won't. But for your information, if qualifications are any measure of 'smartness' (and they're not!), I have a Bachelors and two Masters degrees and the next time your aircraft takes off late flying you to wherever it might just be because I'm searching a forum for the umpteenth hour.
Relax and help others, you may find that others will help you one day!

Why, thank you. I'm not even going to reply further to Mr Ray, as I've had quite some fun reading his reply. He seems to indeed be quite literal, and he appears very good at ignoring the very cause of a forum and for indeed seems to love using that to put 40 minutes into trying to make fun out of someone (which ended up in a fail, although I did chuckle at the "Is it now?" thing, which was, admittedly, rather funny). Now, you, you are pretty horrible as well, but luckily, you posted some answers.
I'm glad to see people agree with me, and I know why. I know that they know that even Mr Ray and you both started one day by asking a question here. I know that most likely, you've been treated the exact same way, or that you were so lucky running into a normal person who has more to do than wasting 40 minutes putting someone down. Well, try someone else for that, I usually just skip those posts.
Oddly, I have a problem with one of the questions - and the problem is: there is no battery indicator, and if there were, why in gods or any deity's name would I ask for it? I'm using TLR's ROM 1 on a Dutch Diamond. I play to flash it to TLR's ROM 2 as soon as I get Outlook on this PC to at least not lose my contacts, and will report whether or not it shows up then.
Glad to know that the battery charger is indeed an USB 5-pin connector. Also glad to know that there are sane people around. I was thinking of spending some more time on these forums, and seeing that the most active posters around seem to be half-intelligent morons that spend days lurking for threads that contains anything they can flame (a common problem amongst the more 'elite' users of forums, of whom some feel they're too important to waste time reading topic-titles of subcritical questions, but feel new people should click through all 50 pages to find an answer tucked away on page 27 of the topic because the search engine in vBulletin forums sucks big time. I studied some internet- and social psychology, no master in that, though), I think I actually should may I find some spare time. There are probably lots of people around with subimportant questions and the best way to help them, is to help them.
Luckily, there are people like Skier641 around, people who maybe do not know the answer, but do voice their opinion against those of the 'elite' who feel they're exactly that, effectively rendering them useless to both community and forum. Luckily, my questions have been answered rather satisfactory. I'll edit the answers into my first post for further reference. Maybe, some day, the search engine will actually work and yield someone this thread, after which they can quickly and easily find the answers on page 1.
I'm spending too much time on this. For your information, this took 6 minutes to write. I hope that Mr Ray and whatever-his-name-was-again are having 20 minutes of great fun using their reverse psychology on this subject. It's amazing how most likely, they'll spend tens of minutes writing a witty reply to this one, instead of taking the five minutes it would've taken to answer my questions. Or maybe, after I posted that line, they'll act smart and reply in one line. Alternatively, after that line, they may not post at all.
That makes 7 minutes.
Hey all,
This is my first post on here so be gentle please!
I just got a touch Diamond and i love it, My boss got the new iphone and he has all those apps where u press a button and it fills with beer or a chick comes out and washes the inside of the screen. What i am wondering is, Is there any like those for the Diamond? Or could any of you very kind developers hack one or make one that would work?
I mainly want the one where the chick comes out an cleans my screen coz im a perv!!
Thanks in advance!
I have seen pretty much everything else from the iphone come over to our phones so I'm sure it is out there somewhere (cannot say that I have seen it yet though)
i know its early days at the mo, so i dont mind waiting for this stuff but if anyone has or does see anything like these two apps for the Diamond then id really be interested !

Thats no app. Thats a video in fullscreen. Even the Today-Screen is faked.
You start the video, then 7 seconds it shows the Today-Screen, then it fills in the Beer. Same with the naked girl...

There is a post in the this topic about a lightsaber app that uses the acceleromitor (SP?), and i noticed none of you guys had gone in there to flame the guy who made that post!
Surely these are the same kind of things, The beer app isnt a video. As i said in my fist post my boss has the iphone an that app an it's no video, it moves as you move you're phone around.
If you have a problem with where a post is put then all you had to do was alert a mod or ask for it to be moved not go an Epeen mission. I signed up to these forums because ive been reading through them for about 2 years lookin for advice or cool apps for my older PDA's that ive had an this didnt seem like the kind of place where people were arse's for no reason!

no, the post is in the "diamond" section not "diamond rom development"
the guy posted where this kind of things should be posted and he posted an application not questions about some hypothetical, nonexistent applications.
the space in this forum and in the first page specialy is "expensive".
ppl are watching posts regarding ROMs and important stuff related to diamond. each time a noob start a thread like yrs he pushes the really important stuff to the next pages.
what's so difficult to understand and to accept? why argue?!
nobody asked from you explanations or apologies. all we are asking you is to stop. come and check the forum from time to time and if there will be such an application you'll see it posted exactly like the saber....got it?
one thing more...stop asking here stuff that you see on iPhone...this is a diamond forum and we don't really love the "i" word.
now, are we OK? should i explain it to you again? with simpler words? should i bring here a few more members to ask you nicely to "let it go"????
Thank you for helping us keep this forum clean and please don't slam the door!
P.S.
congrats to your boss for his fine taste and choice of PDA!

So you got flamed, so what?! the point of that is you have to learn from it. and if you have read these forums for two years you should know by now to post in the correct thread and the correct forum for your questions or needed advice. Everyone here is willing to point you in the right direction but some people react different to wrong posts etc.. but hey,eveybody is different and also you can have a bad day or be cranky,so dont be sad about it, just go to the right forum and thread and someone will help u if they can. keep the peace. greetings
I want the one where a girl actually apears out of nothing Cleans the drewl from my chin, then from my phone and then magicly makes a thread move to different forums.
That would be kewl.
I've taken a look at some of the apps.
They got one mayor Plus.
They look good.
But most of them aren' t that functional. (from what i've seen)
But that might also change.
Chapeau Steve Jobs, for bringing out this SDk that will allow for all these great apps that most consumers seem to want.
Is there a Remote Desktop app for the Iphone BTW?
I like general ChitChat.
As long as it stays just that Chit Chat.
...and no I'm not going to ask everyone what's the best ROM or some such; I read the "Read Before Posting". I just thought I'd kind of introduce myself and allow people the opportunity to relive their first experiences vicariously through me.
But yea, I'm very excited to finally get my hands on one of these and I've got a serious amount of reading to do on how to get everything nice and nifty. Wish me luck!
I do have one serious question though, as far as physical aesthetic modification, how easy is it? I may want to repaint things and especially get rid of that awful AT&T logo. I'm assuming there are those out there that have tried similar things to what I'm thinking of.
Someone was asking this before, I think someone else was suggesting sugar cubes, but I cannot find the post... I'll keep looking.
EDIT:
Found It: Search this forum for "Sugar" there are loads of ATT Logo Removal threads

Hey! Thanks for lookin' out.
As far as actually repainting the whole thing, has anyone done it? Faceplate only, though.
I hate the ugly att logo, like most people. although honestly this phone doesnt look all that slick to begin with. The kaiser is an amazing phone, even more so if you know how to use it right xD
welcome and hope you enjoy it here.

...and no I'm not going to ask everyone what's the best ROM or some such; I read the "Read Before Posting". I just thought I'd kind of introduce myself and allow people the opportunity to relive their first experiences vicariously through me.

I have the Stellar and I thought it was really nice looking when it came out. But since the Diamond / Raph, well ... what can I do

Hey everyone! I finally got my Kaiser yesterday and I spent all night and morning toying with it.
I'm now using HDIII and I've customized it completely to my tastes with all the different tweaks and such out there. Thanks for the welcomes!
It's so funny now, though, because after all this customization, I keep feeling like there's more I could do to it and I want to do it all, haha.
If I had known the Kaiser was capable of such things, I would've gotten one long ago.
[EDIT]
I was wondering if anyone would be willing to just tell me how to fix one thing. I probably could've searched it, which I did, but I guess I either did something wrong or that wasn't it. I wanted to change the screen where it displays the 'RGD' lines with the numbers. I thought that would be the 'welcomhead.96.png' but I guess that's not it. So, how could I change this? Thanks.
If you are talking about the little numbers in lower right corner when it boots, that's the software and radio version info it can only be changed with a different ROM.
That's the Splash screen, there is a post by pof and by -888- somewhere that will help you.

Not true. He wants to change the splash screen. Not change the numbers themselves. Its a simple flash and you are all set
I could have sworn I read somewhere that someone had modified the screen angle of the kaiser to be almost perpendicular to the keyboard when laid out. I though for sure it was here on XDA as this is pretty much the only site i read/ post in actively, however ive yet to find the original thread. Im curious about modding mine to have a sharper angle ( plus I have a spare already in hand if I make a horrible mistake )
Has anyone seen the post im referring to ?
Thanks
here it is TonyChen Screen Mod It's posted onmike channon's space which has many more disassembly guides.
Thank you very much I knew I wasnt totally crazy ! ( almost there though lol )
Has anyone here tried this yet ?
i haven't but just looked through the guide and shouldn't be that hard..
I think you'll be fine, specially if you have experience with disassembling and reparing devices. Just don't get too frustrated if one piece won't open/come off and just keep at it gently so you don't damage anything.
good luck and take photos
I certainly will!
Although it may be a few weeks before I get to it. Things are kinda busy these days
