Hi,
after upgrading to 1.93 GER, the diamond doesn't wake up, when I remove the stylus.
How can I tell the device, to wake up again.
Thank you
Hennes
Open back cover take stylus out, you will notice small switch there - in the middle part where stylus should be ... look if it is not stuck
Is there any setting for this function cause my phone doesn't and didn't awake on stylus removing, by the way my rom is 1.37.404.3 nld radio 1.00.25.03
I have the same problem...any idea how to fix this?
Try this
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Keybd\StylusOutStat us
If it is 0, it's in. If it is 1, it's out.

So whats i gonna do with it? edit it or what?
the value dont change. its the same if the stylus is in or out.
tested with restarting app and diffrent thing. there is no notice of the stylus.
ideas?
i'd be grateful for a solution as well, the switch appears to be working.
sometimes there is dust between the stylus and sensor. You can remove the battery and try to gently blow away the dust.

My touchscreen won't allow any input. I tried hard reset, reflashing ROM and radio - nothing helps so far. Now it's stuck on the 'tap the screen to setup your device' on the initial setup screen. The buttons work, slide works, but touching the screen won't. Any ideas? I saw the posts about frozen screens, but I don't think this is it.

Maybe its a loose connection?
Uh - is there a way to tighten it??? ;-)
Any ideas? If the screen is hosed - any suggestions as to who could repair it?
Bump? How about difficulty in replacing the screen on these?

just did mine, it's not TOO bad.. just 4 screws and a lot of careful prying but it's definately doable. There is a how to somewhere on here. If I were you I'd try the tool that lets you skip the screen setup and see if your touch screen works otherwise... strange thing is when I try to align my screen right now it freezes my phone on the "align screen" screen... so hopefully that's what is happening to you and you dont need a new screen. so yeah look for the align screen skip and see if it works.
Thanks for the info - I'll look around for the skip alignment tool. I assume the screws were those outer four teeny tiny torx screws?
OK - Dude - how crazy is that... it just started working again. I just kept hitting around on the screen by forcing it to alignment and it's now working. What gives? I saw a post about magnetization screwing up alignment, but this is kind of crazy. It works if I push the screen part of the phone 'south' and then I can tap and get the alignment to complete. Loose connection somewhere, I'll check out those guides to figure out if the ribbon is tight or not.

glad to hear you've got it working and saved yourself a headache... you might want to try sliding it open and giving it a squeeze below the screen but above the buttons... that's where the screen attaches to the board... give it a try.
OK - more of a 'tard moment for me - the screen protector was jamming against the screen. I figured that out after I had the whole back off and pried open to look internally to see what was going on and then noticed the screen was working fine with the back off.... oh geeze, time for a stiff drink. Thanks for the suggestions - you guys are cheap therapy bahahahahhaaaa!!!
Look out for dust particles
Glad you found out what was wrong. I would like to add that in general, if a touch screen is unresponsive, examine the device for dust particles stuck between the plastic and the touchscreen. It will be understood as a tap by the touchscreen, thereby rendering your own tabs unrecognized. I've tried that 2 times now.
I had a similar problem with my touchscreen. Sometimes it doesn't recognize my touch with a finger or stylus. I have to keep pushing the same spot for it to register the touch.
Now I took a needle and cleaned the space between plastic and touchscreen. For now it seems that it helped. Lets see how it works for now on.
Thanks.
ha ha ha ha ha!!!!
at leats you admint the retardness
D'oh.. the problem stays. Do I have to open the whole machine, and clean it that way, or can the problem be in the software?
I think, that after a soft reset the screen works properly, but after a little while it overlooks some of my taps.
What SPL are you running? Are you experiencing the 'screen freezes'?
"XDA-Developers HTC Kaiser HardSPL CID Unlocker v1.0" says in the readme.txt file. Does 'screen freezes' mean that I can't do nothing with the screen, or what? What is the SPL's job in the PPC, I thought it was needed only for the OS flashing.
OK, now I know what you mean with screen freeze. It sure does freese. So the problem is not in the touchscreen, but in somewhere else? The whole phone freezes in time to time.
what spl are you running?
OK, I suppose that was a tip. Thanks for the tip. I upgraded my SPL from 1.0 Olipof to HardSPL 3.56.
Everything started going very smoothly for now. Lets see how it keeps being smooth after couple days of using.
Hi,
When I pull my stylus - nothing happens... doesn't turn on or unlock device.
or during a call opens "notes".
Everything is Checked - it should do it, but it won't...
Any Ideas ???
Thanks
Take out the stylus, then remove the rear panel from your diamond. Look to see if the tiny magnet strip has become dislodged. This happened to mine after I'd had it just two days... it made it difficult to insert the stylus, and it just felt all wrong, because the strip had stuck itself in an awkward position. It also wouldn't recognize when the stylus was withdrawn.
I very nearly returned my diamond under warranty, until I looked closely at the stylus aperture and noticed this issue. I fixed it with a tiny spot of super glue on the magnetic strip and deft use of some plastic tweezers... saved days of re-programming a replacement.
Mr. Orange owes me a beer I reckon ;-)
Thanks for the reply...
The magnetic strip is there... I feel the magnet working...
but the diamond doesn't recognize when its in or out...
Anyone ?? Help - is it hardware or software ????
also a problem with the magnet strip
I own my diamond now for three weeks and something went wrong with the magnetstrip..it looks like it is still inplace but the magnetic force is stronger on the outside of the phone then on the inside (where its supposed to be) I'm trying to move te strip in the right position. but is not working.(seems like te strip is in the correct position)
It just happened. Really annoying..The phone goes on when I remove the stylus. (and the stylus is holding , but I don't get "the magnetic snap anymore"

shalom! go to:
settings/personal/phone/advanced (tab)/"when a call is connecting, open the Notes application when stylus is pulled out"
also in the diamond's manual
My htc diamond has a problem that, sometimes the device will be turned on accidently, causing accendential phone calls, which is very annoying.
By then, I realised the problem was caused by the stylus control (which turn the device on when stylus is pulled out), that the problem never occur without the stylus. So, is there any way to disable the stylus sensor control that turn on the device?
When you remove the battery cover and the stylus there is a little black switch on the side.
Edit: Ahh well it aint a switch but it is the sensor for the stylus. Break it and you'll be fine
use a Password so you can't do anything when it is turned on

is there any software to deal with, apart from breaking the physical component?
I had same problem before!
just use a plastic tape to cover the sensor is OK!
you will say bye to this problem
I was just looking for this and can't find it :/
I'm using the cdma diamond
I have the same problem - my Diamond sometimes wakes up in my pocket because of the stylus sensor . I've been looking for software solution, but nothing found... Is there a registry key that can turn the stylus sensor off? Or maybe a small program that does this...? Please, need your help...

Use TouchLockPro and dissable the Stylus sensor in the program. When it wakes up in your pocket, it will lock your phone and go to sleep again after 30 seconds.
Any other way? TLP is too much for me, I look for something only for stylus sensor (I don't need to set light sensor, g-sensor, etc.). Otherwise I would like to completely turn it off (Diamond wouldn't wake up when the stylus is out). And of course I don't want to break it...

A piece of paper or tape over the stylus sensor/notch will also do.....you do not have to break it, as described in post #5.

I have the same problem with stylus sensor. I used a small piece of cellotape over the black part of stylus. This helped to avoid self unlocking. Hope there is also possibility to disable stylus sensor in the registry…

Want to see if any other Kaiser users have had these two problems and if they have any fix:
1. Keyboard buttons aren't responsive (about half), meaning you have to press them hard for them to work. I'm suspecting this is from the sweat when i'm at the gym but then again it could be a keyboard aligning problem.
2. When I slide out the keyboard, the screen flickers in two places in a circular manner.
I know both are hardware issues so if anybody has any ideas, i'd appreciate it.
I have the same problem with unresponsive keys. I've had it a while and I've never used the keyboard with wet or dirty fingers. A friend got the same phone at the same time and has always had a more responsive keyboard, even from new.
If anyone has any ideas on fixing it, I'm all ears.
I'm curious, has anybody fixed their Kaiser's keyboard with the keys needing to be pressed hard in order to work?
Hard to press buttons
Im assuming it just needs cleaning out but any other ideas? Going to look for guides to take apart just hope it doesnt void a warranty
spray some windex on it.

Were you successful in doing this? I don't mind opening up the Kaiser, I just want to know what i'm doing and what the culprit is.
Recently i've lost my digitizer, and i've tried to find the reason. and open my diamond following the instruction on "PDA CENTER".
but after re close it. it does not goes on.
the vibration operates but the device does not come up.
PLEASE SOMEBODY HELP ME.

Easy problem! The 1 or 2 cables from the lower PCB are disconnected.
You need to remove the lower plastic cover (5 screws). One flat cable connector is right under the SIM, the other is under the batt. connector. You need a fine tweezer and press them back together.
After that put the batt in and try, no need to screw all together yet.
