Hey, i just got my HTC Touch Diamond yesterday and i'm already loving it. Well i was looking around to improve it even more and found a couple of things like the tweaks and stuff but how would i go and put them on my phone? like .CAB files, Gsen, Diamond TF3D Config, lightsaber, and disabling 3G and... w/e that other one was that connects to internet other then wifi. Thank you if someone could answer my questions
Easiest would be to copy them via activesync / Mobile Device center, or just connecting the Diamond as a Storage device. Just connect the USB cable to your PC.
So i pretty much just drag and drop them into a folder of my chose and it'll work? Also do i do the same with tomtom7 application and maps?
hmm.. I did what you said and i just put the unzipped files into the harddrive in my program files but it didn't work i tried opening setup but it's and opera file.
on another not where can i get the cab file for no 3G ?

Hello to all. I don't expect you to know the answers to all of these questions. If you know one or more, can you please reply. I've tried to search for about a week and couldn't do it, so if ya can help me out that would be great. Greatly appreciated!
1. I downloaded WifiRouter and did everything it said, changed my IP address, ran the program, created an Adhoc network and when I connect my laptop it says it's connected, which is a success, but it my laptop doesn't have an internet connection. The whole point is to share your internet via wifi using an Adhoc connection right? It's not working for some reason. I've tried this wifirouter program in hopes that I can share internet via my wifi with my friend's laptop.
2. I need a program where I can change the PTT button on the AT&T Tilt. I want to customize the buttons on the right and left of my AT&T Tilt to open up programs. I've searched and can not find the program.
3. How the heck do I change the default folder of My Documents to something else so when I'm sending files to my phone via bluetooth it goes to my storage card or a separate folder NOT My Documents? I want to change it to my Storage Card from now on. Can't find the program.
4. Where is the brightness fix for the HTC Home? I search and found one here on xda and it crashed my phone. The brightness icon does not work and I've tried multiple HTC Home's and the brightness just won't work on my AT&T Tilt. Does anyone know a definite fix. I heard it was some dll file that I have to replace.
Thanks

Perhaps here you'll find a solution for that problem, it allowed me to reassign my PTT button, post #127: link

3. In the Register. (Use KaiserTweak for that)
4. Update your ROM.
I cannot seem to figure out how to use my new 8925 as a wireless modem via Bluetooth as I had my 8525.
Via USB it seems to work but I have not had any luck with Bluetooth and of course the AT&T Tech support has no idea.

1, welcome to xda-devs
2, read the Internet Sharing + PAN BT client tutorials. There're several of them - Google for them.
I have solved my own problem. Duno if anyone else has the same issue.
Seems the tilt just comes missing the shortcut to the internet sharing.
If you want Internet Sharing via Bluetooth do the following steps
1- Open File Explorer
2- go to the "\Device\Windows" Folder
3- Touch and Hold on "Internet Sharing" and select COPY
4- Go to "\Device\Windows\StartMenu\Programs" and Touch and Hold and select PASTE
5- Restart Device
6- Enjoy!
you didnt have to copy the whole program, could have just made a shortcut to it.
you should also take a look at wmwifirouter
my XP desktop can't net share via bluetooth either but if i use USB my tilt shares just fine.
couldn't find anything helpful in the guides, just lots of references to the toshiba stack
Just like a any BT accessory, you must make your phone visible & pair it.
If you have a WiFi card on your laptop, try using WMWiFiRouter instead. It has been discussed many times in this forum.

The file "Internet Sharing" was a link, the exe was something along the lines of intshar.exe or something. If you COPY instead of COPY SHORTCUT than your link wont have a pretty icon (its only 26byte file)
btw. wmwifirouter looked kool
Whenever my HTC Diamond is connected to my pc microsoft activeSync(cable),
the time of diamond is updated to the wrong time which is not the same as the clock in my pc.
Besides that, one thing that really annoys me is that it sychronises automatically which alwiys transfer those unwanted files into my diamond.
Next, afta auto sychronisation, i found some files in my diamond but i cannot locate them my pc. I couldnt find where' are those files in my pc. lol, but i believe da files are from my PC. Is there any way that i could check where did those files come from after synchronisation?
thanks if u could drop by n help =D
Have been using my new tytn II for the past weeks, so am a newbie to this XDA-dev malarky and think its all great and fandabiousy, (preverbial) 'BUT' am having problems with lost bluetooth files......
I use a mac on leopard with bluetooth file exchange for data transfer/cabs etc. with the latest rom wmbile 6.1 from HTC site.
Also use the 'missing sync' as a go between instead of 'active sync' but tend to drop files across using the standard bluetooth file exchange as that seems to work more consistently than the desktop mount or instal option of the 'missing sync' -
tytn tells me that it is accepting the files and then says 'do I want to save file to device' I select 'yes' with no option for where to place them this means that I end up having to hunt throughout the device for the transfered file, which consistently is invisible to the naked eye
If I use the search it does not tell me where the files are being stored and does not offer any advanced options (that bit just does not seem to be playing at all no matter what it searches on) so I double click a cab from the search menu and it instals
From a file management perspective this is a nightmare as I presumably have redundant cab files somewhere on the phone and data which is just hoggin space
Have searched the forums here and htc and the blogs and the wider yhoo/ggle for the past day etc. But to no avail nothing on where this pesky little blighters are being stored or transferred to or no info on how to direct them to a folder of my choice.
So the million dollar question is.......... where they go? (presume there is a default)
The two million dollar question is .......... can I manage these more efficiently with better software? (if so any pointers)
And the three million dollar question is .......... How many smarties did it take to build the london underground?
All help much appreciated in full!

The default is under the Devices documents folder ( My device ----->My Documents using file explorer) . I also use a macbook pro. Best bet is to transfer things to a cardreader. MUCH faster and you dont have to worry about dropping out in the middle of a large file transfer.
Also, depending on the rom, there is also the option for an actual "Bluetooth transfers" folder which i also believe to be under the "My documents" folder on the device.
you are a guiness sir ! loads of cans found and deleted !

do you run tomtom? and if so do you find it works using the card reader to sync to HOME (their update software) ?
Am attempting to run tomtom 6 nav and have just bought the maps for western Europe but it will not sync through usb or bluetooth

Simply copy the maps onto the root of the sd card once downloaded. When you start uo tt6 ( im running tt7) it should ask for your key. Input it and all is good

my problem is found in the access to the maps - tomtom use 'home' software to download and pair with the device unfortunately this does not work with tytn and mac so am stuck at the 'turn your device on and pair' screen. with no links to my legitimate map downloads etc,
(have only found tomtom 6 navigator to work without crashing my tytn...)
have emailed tomtom to see if they can give me a manual cab download rather than this messy software malarky! still waiting reply.....
Well, just when i think I have things figured out. If a cab is right for my phone, how do I get it onto the phone. Can I do it by the USB hooking it up to my Desktop and then copy and paste into the phone from the desktop? How do I then look at the phone and see if that cab is really there and launch it??
I have a file that tells me it's a CAB file to launch the BTAG that activates the Bluetooth settings and Voice Mail 1.6. It is from a cooked ROM and I only want this one CAB....
Thanks

Just put the .cab in intern memory or your storage card. Launch it (by clicking on it) via File Explorer.

hmm, the question is ok but not as a new thread, not in dev; how about general - newbies questions?
I really do hope that you don't make it a habit of yours starting new threads for every single question you have, urgent or not
thx for helping him
to finalize: use disk drive mode to get it to your phone via usb (activesync might lead to data conversion), you are able to select the target folder, disconnect, open a file explorer, navigate to your dir containing the cab and click/double click it for installation
depending on the cab it will either be installed (to device mem) or you will be asked where to install it (device mem or sd)
done and best
