Hi everybode...
Sadly I'm missing one of the more cool features of my Diamond. The vibrator effect that comes with hitting the wall in Teeter game is no longer pressent
Sad because it's a cool feature when showing of the phone
Does anybody know if is't maybe a reg setting thats gone wrong ore maybe how to fix the problem? Without it, the game is not the same...
Pleace help!
Chears...
First of all I would say you should try a soft reset. While the device is booting it will also short vibrate so you know that the hardware is allright.

Been there done that... The hardware is perfectly OK. It's only missing in Teeter game
Chears...

hey ive been having this problem for the past couple days and was wondering if anyone has experianced the same thing or could shed abit of light on it.
basically whenever writing a text, or word document or typing a web address, etc and i click on the letter "w" nothing comes up and the phone crashes, doesnt let me type anything, goes super super slow and doesnt really respond to nething so i have to reset it. this happens when using the "w" on the on screen keyboard and on the pull out keyboard.
i havnt dropped it recently and its in perfect condition, also havnt installed anything recently that may hav caused it. it just seemed to randomly start happening. will have to try a hard reset if theres no other solution, but any ideas would be greatly appreciated?
I would suggest a hard reset. If it is a software error that should do the trick.
But i guess this has something to do with hardware. I had that problem with my wizard. The commanager button caused the device to crash. Once I opened it I found about 1 kg of dust sitting behind the button. Once that was out of the way the device was normal again.
edit: Just try opening the device as a last resort.
here you can find the service manual. Link removed - no longer valid
thanks mate, may try a hard reset then. but i'll leave it till weekend after exams have finished as its quite time consuming installing everything again, etc.
i perhaps should have mentioned that it only crashes if "w" is the first letter i use. if i type something else an then use it, it seems to work. (altho i havnt tested this properly, i'll assume this is usually the case). just seems like a very strange problem to get
anywayz, thank you for ur advice
nice screen name Is this a stock ROM or a cooked one? maybe the keyboard fix would correct it?

haha thank you.. umm.. its the default one that came with the t-mobile mda vario III. was working fine up until the other day.. whats this keyboard fix u speak of tho?
I have almost the same problem with my "w" key also. I have to press it longer than i do other keys to get it to type a "w" and when i do it causes a slow down on my phone.
sounds like its time for a song..

lol.. u can spell out the name of the band without the letter W.. so its good.
flobots - No "W"
anyway.. on topic.. wat rom is A7LAS using?
I've had my Diamond for a couple of weeks and the accelerometer has worked normally until now. But now it seems to have stuck - in Teeter, the ball is fixed in the upper left corner and will not move, and apps like Opera and the photo viewer does not react to rotating the phone anymore. I've used the cool Sushi Profile Switcher v.0.2 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=406769) and have
shaken the phone a lot. Has anyone experienced anything similar? Is it possible that I've physically broken the g-sensor? - I've hard-reset the phone but it didn't help.
Thanks in advance for any answers

Use the Bubble level program which visualizes the angle of your phone. It offers the ability to calibrate the phone. Maybe it helps.
You can find the program here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=408056&highlight=bubble+level
Maybe there is a reason that HTC didn't build in a profile shaker... that would be something :|

That's not true. it only calibrates it in the app itself. As soon as you leave the app, your gsensor has the same calibration as before.
Thanks for the suggestion - I installed the BubbleLevel program, and allthough it didn't solve the problem, but I think it does give a hint that it might just (hopefully) be a matter of calibration. The green blob doesn't move at all, but the degree number in the top changes from 71,5 when the phone is flat on the table to 90 in vertical position, so movements are still registered.
Could it be that one of the axis the sensors measure is broken?
Come to think of it...: Even though it isn't calibrated, it should work no matter what. If it's calibrated wrong the axis still should register movement in any direction. The only thing wrong would be the read-out compared to the horizon.
I'm affraid that something is physically wrong with the device
Does the 'shake app' still work, or isn't it? Maybe there is a difference in sensing shocks (g's) and the angle sensors.
Probably there is another app, but I wouldn't know one other at the moment: The light sabre applet has a 'debug' feature from which you can see if G's are measured along the axis. Should give an indication too...

Did you try a hard reset? I presume soft reset has been made?
Maybe the drivers are just f*** up

I don’t want to sound condescending, but do you know what a hard reset is?
It's not simply removing and replacing your battery!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2332732&postcount=1
I do not understand what is the problem .. to play whit the diamond you keep diamond to the hand and not on the table no?? also tends in my hand a little, but I have no problem playing ...
Ric
the problem is, that a broken G-Sensor does not even allow you to play Teeter. When you open opera, it stays in landscape mode as the device "thinks" it's turned sideways

I know, unfortunately I did hard reset the way described in the guide, but the sensor is still not working.
I've also made a simple little test-application using the g-sensor api described here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2381034
Running this on my Diamond shows that movement on the x-axis is not registered at all, movement on the y-axis only shows very small changes, while movement on the z-axis seems to be registered fine. I guess this suggests that the g-sensor is actually broken

Hi Bäcker
So did your sensor also work for a while until appearently broken? And did you by any chance also 'shake' your unit quite a lot before it happened?
it worked fine, now it does work, but its drasticly registering negative X axis data
So teeter can't be used and it flips opera/album on it's own
i did not shake it but a relative's kid (5yrs) dropped it on the carpet - which might be the reason
Just get it replaced under warranty
Me too
I have exactly the same issue.
I dropped the phone once - on a soft surface, no scratches or external damange but...
Teeter Game - ball only rolls on one axis, otherwise stuck at top of scree.
No Rotation in Opera or Camera
Camera, after taking photos and then viewing them in the viewer the are presented upside down and can not be rotated.
I've done a hard reset twice with no resolution.
Contacted HTC. they said that since it's past the 30 since order date the best they can do is have me send the phone in for repair - no replacement.
My main concern now is that since this seems to be a problem others are having too from similar 'small knocks' is it even worth sending back for repair. At this rate all owners will soon be facing the same issue.

Is that why my teeter ball changes its habits depending on how I calibrate the sensor? Oh okay.
Download the calibration tool stripped from the Raphael.
from several days ago whem i touch in diamond icons never select the one i touch!!!... It selects the icon on left or right but never the right one....
When i have a phone call i select the green icon and it turns the phone off
What can i do?
I aligned the screen thousands of times, i installed the different calibrators and nothing.
I align screen, it works well for a few seconds and becomes crazy again. I soft reset, a tried everything i remember and always the same.....
Obvious question: Did you Hard Reset?
Try a hard reset.
If that doesnt work then it sounds like the screen is screwed, get the unit swapped.
I've just installed a new rom! I think i have to swapp the unit
The problems are the same. Anything more i can do??
If you just installed a new ROM, did you do a hard reset? To me it sounds as if the calibration for the touch sensor is off. The first thing that you do after a hard reset is calibrate the screen.
So you can try to calibrate the screen, bofore doing the hard-reset.
You can but when you hard reset you just have to do it again
Also, you could check your local optician for any additional problems.
No, but honestly, a hardreset and recalibration should fix the problem. I'm aware that GNes/GSen can give some problems if it thinks it has rotated the screen, but I've never seen that occur outside programs that don't rotate the screen by themselves.
If that doesn't work, Sync it, back it up, whatever you want to do, possibly flash to stock and return it to whereever you bought it/HTC to get it swapped.
thank's everybody... I tried it all and the same. Going to swapp
have the same problem.. it wasn't there before, had the phone for 3 month.. i think it has to do with water under the screen, used it in the rain and then it began to behave this way (due to the big speaker hole maybe?) , it works fine otherwise! Any idea how to fix it? waterdamage? - guarantee or what?
I think it´s wierd if you can´t use it when it´s raining..?

How many phones can be used risk free in rain?
i don't think that's the problem. no water in my phone, rain or other....
i think it started after gsen installed...may be wrong, or else or.....
Very little chance Gsen having anything to do with it. Many people are using that (including me) with no ill effects.
Hmmm, I though I was the only one with this problem. I'm on the second unit now, the first one always do soft reset by itself after every few wake up. Now the alignment always gone off after few minutes of use. I'm waiting for the replacement unit now.
Initially I thought it was because of the ROM update I did, but even after I restore the original ROM, it still happen.
Looks like I'm quite unlucky with the Diamond .
problem solved!!!!
gone to look for assistance.
After 3.30 hours new touch screen and they sad to me new components inside.
For now all good. Till when??....
hope it was the last problem
So its a guarantee issue? - bad components inside?
It still works ok, so i wait to send it away..
till now all ok.
Hello everybody! This is my first post.My name is Matt, I'm from Poland.
I have big problem with my Kaiser ;/ When i want click something on the screen by taping or clicking a button, the phone dont reaction
Please help me
When you say there is no reaction, do you mean that the phone is just slow, and takes a few seconds, or do you mean that the phone doesn't acknowledge the tap at all? If it is the second one, it may be a hardware problem. How long have you had the phone? When did this start happening, and did you do anything you think may have caused it?
Dave
i have Kaiser six months.Maybe You're right, this is possible hardware problem ;/
ohh my God
Soft then Hard Reset?
I had a similar issues many months ago. I still don't know what locked it up, but I ended up hard resetting, which cleared it up. Thank God for SPB backup.
Good Luck
Ok, I do a hard reset and check the problem again
Hi guys.. I explain my problem: in short words during the day happens very frequently that the phone goes into freeze ... the touch does not react, but the rest of the system works perfectly: the side buttons work, messages arrive, rings etc .. when it happens I have to do a soft reset and then returns all ok .. I did a hard reset but nothing has changed. This problem makes me think of a faulty closure of some system process such as the one that operates the touch .. it's possible in your opinion? From what can be caused?
thanks
