TouchFLO 3D missing? - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

I bought the HTC Touch Diamond today, and it seems to be missing a few options. TouchFLO 3D option does not exist on my Today screen menu. Opera doesn't exist either. Will I have to do a ROM update, or will I have to download them myself?
Model No: P3490
ROM Version: 1.37.720.2 WWE
Radio Version: 1.00.25.03
I'm getting quite annoyed of the way it functions at the moment. Please help me.

hard reset.

I got the same, do a reset of teh device adn itll reinstall everything and then itll exist.
Start->Settings->System Tab->Clear Storage
Then select clear storage only and enter the code and let it run. Your TF3D should automatically tuen on after this
I had the same bother.

Thank you for the genius solution! It works like a charm! Even got a bit faster!

Touch Flo

Is it possible to have touch-flo working on our wm6 himalaya
the other devices apart from touch
dont seem to be able to get it working as it does on touch
so i would not count on it
but few components of touch flo seems work.
I think at first we need fix gprs trouble.
yeah but from what i understand they need to use some hardware button to activate some of the flo
which the touch people dont
what i'm intresting in is if wm6 will give better bluetooth a2dp for himalaya
doubt it though :S
sorry for offtop
wm6 give at least Bluetooth PAN over MS drivers.

Works flawlessly with 400 MHz.
Much better than WM 5.0 on my StarTrec headphone.
Sascha

Yes i also confirm this. It isnt working.. my device is now freezed on boot screen.. hard resetting it...
from what i've picked up in forums for trinity and hermes then
the touch flo require a special screen dll
all devices have that dll but the touchs is different
and they all seem spc to the device so one cant just move the dll from touch to another device
well that is to say one cant move the dll from touch to another device yet!
When you search Youtube for Touchflo, you get a whole bunch of clips from all kinds of HTC devices running Touchflo quite well. Some do use buttons (who cares?) with touch screen finger touch mode, others seem not to touch any hardware buttons at all. In all cases they're able to access anything on screen without ever grabbing a stylus.
Although I've not yet been able to taste this kinda success on my Hima, it gives me good hope that soon enough it'll be available to us as well.
In HELMI_C addon2 is touchflo version which i can install (and mustn´t hard resert). But i can´t run it - some problem with certificate.

We might have a solution.
tofclock wm6 rom all installed ok....(with tochtest.cab app from addon2)
touchflo opens in bits... (goto programs then touchflo) theres separate apps for each screen...makes sense..
what dosnt work at all is the task bar button at the bottom,... comes up with "cannot be opened. either it is not a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found....try reinsalling ect..."
in the top left of the error window it has ' " ' ..what is it trying to open???
ive trailed through all the settings but theres nothing to configure for this,,, id would be amazing to get this working like the 'touch' phone...
anyone any ideas????

Got the same problem.
Got the same message today from another taskbar button. I downloaded the test version of Pocket Hack Master today. I uninstalled it also for several other issues a.o. that it wants to constantly run at the highest turbo speed, telling me that CPU load is 100%, while I want to underclock to expand battery life.
But the same message from unrelated taskbar buttons sounds like we found another bug in the ROM. HTC and Anton Topov both spread their software with trusted certificates I assume. And I checked, there was nothing wrong with the startup shortcut of PHM as you probably checked for Touchflo.

Installed Duttys WM6.1 5.2.19716 - Comm manager opens randomly

Ok.. so a few days ago I installed this:
Rom: Duttys WM6.1 5.2.19716
Radio: Polar 1.58.25.14
Everything works great... except for the stupid comm manager. I remapped all of my buttons... so now the only thing the comm manager is assigned to is the "press and hold SEND button".
However....
The COMM manager will randomly launch itself. It seems like it happens sometimes when i'll click text messages, or open slide out the keyboard... etc. etc..
For what it's worth.. i installed the same rom and radio on my girlfriends tilt, and her phone does the same thing. Has anyone else experienced this?
Yea, I was getting the same thing.
You should flash the latest version of that rom, it's the 1 5.2.19716_UC. I still get the comm manager popping up, but it's not nearly as much as what you're seeing now. And if you can believe it, the latest one is even FASTER!!!
And it is UC compliant.
UC = "User Customization":
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=366337
New rom here:
http://www.mediafire.com/?5wdmtmyylvg
Actually dude thats the one i'm using. I forgot to put the UC at the end. :-/
So... i guess we are stuck at the moment.
EDIT: I changed my sig to reflect the correct Rom ..... anyone else having this issue? Anyone know of a fix?

I just found something out. A friend of mine and I have identical everything installed on our tilts...
Here are our rom versions, radio versions, and DIFFERENT protocol versions... we installed from the EXACT same files. WTF?
Check this out... we ended up somehow with different protocol versions... does that make a difference?
I have the issue with the comm manager opening up, he doesnt.
My info:
Rom: Touch v6.1 WWE
Rom date: 02/19/08
Radio version: 1.58.25.14
Protocol version: 25.69.30.05h <---notice the H
My friends info:
Rom: Touch v6.1 WWE
Rom date: 02/19/08
Radio version: 1.58.25.14
Protocol version: 25.69.30.05w <---notice the W
Maybe this is some insight... but i have no idea how this happened if we both used the same rom, same radio, same everything. Hell, we even used the same cab files when we installed our other apps, and we never installed a different comm manager.
On a side note... I also installed ALL of these same files on my girlfriends Tilt, and she has the same issue that I am having with the comm manager.
WTF. LoL
I went through the registry and at first glance everything appears ok. I suppose i'll do a little more digging later on...
Pictures of both of our info.... my picture is missing the one missing the beam button and with the "H" at the end of the protocol... his has the "W".
I had him try to do the comm manager glitch about a dozen times but no go.. so his isnt broke. Lucky bastard.
because i got the same problem with W and H i am curious if you find out how to switch the versions.
What i found out is:
W means GSM (900/1800/1900) and UMTS (2100 anly)
H means GSM (850/900/1800/1900Mhz) and UMTS (850/1900/2100Mhz)
Same here.
I have the same problems with my comm manager randomly opening when I have a program open and switch to landscape mode.
But I'm not running anything from Dutty.
Rom version: 1.56.405.5
Radio: 1.27.12.11
Protocol 22.45.88.07W
I have nothing to add other than to say the Comm Manager opens everytime I slide too.

New Diamond - No Touch Flo 3D?

Hi I'm from Bulgaria, and a big HTC fan.
A friend of mine showed me today a brand new HTC TD and Touch Flo 3D is missing. Compared to my own device, has a RSS Hub, but no Touch Flo 3D. There were no time to check the rom version of the device (may be tomorrow). Any ideas why a trader will offer it in that condition, and how to restore the plugin?

Went to Start - Setting - Today (tick TouchFlo3D on)
There is no TouchFlo3D to tick on...
If you HARD reset the device, it counts down from 3 to 0 after the OS is installed, in order to install additional programs. If you press the reset button in that time, the device will boot without installing these programs. You end up with only WM6.1 installed, and not all the HTC software as TFL3D.
@ 205_lacoste,
Thank's, that was the problem. Now everything is installed and running.

Touch Flo 3D = HTC-Sense
Hi there,
I too was wondering why my brand new TouchDiamond 2 didn't have touch Flo 3D installed. Through doing a bit of google research I found the following info in wikipedia:
From the HTC Hero[1][2] and HTC HD2 onwards, TouchFLO 3D has been heavily extended and is now being referred to, along with other usability improvements, as HTC Sense.
HTC Sense is a user interface, based on the TouchFLO 3D user interface,[1] developed by HTC for mobile devices running Android and Windows Mobile. Announced June 24, 2009, the first phone running Android to feature HTC Sense was the HTC Hero,[4][5] and the first Windows Phone to feature HTC Sense (an updated TouchFLO) was the HTC HD2, announced October 6, 2009.[6]
At the World Mobile Congress 2010, HTC showed their new updated HTC Sense UI to debut on the HTC Desire and HTC Legend, with an upgrade available for the Hero and Magic.
The Windows Mobile version of Sense is the successor to TouchFLO 3D.
Perhaps this addresses the issue you've been having? You can tell if you have HTC-Sense or Touch Flo 3D installed by going into settings, then into "all settings", then into "Today", then select the tab for "items". There you'll find a list of check boxes. If one of the check boxes says Touch Flo 3D then you have that, if not it should say HTC Sense. Checking or unchecking that box will enable or disable that functionality for your phone. Hope this helps! Good luck!!
Cheers!
I have the same problem but the hard reset dont help...please hepl me
I have also been having some problems with my Diamond. My uncle got it in a contest, but could not use it with Verizon. I got it, started it, and the installation process worked up until a point, where it froze. I soft restarted the device and it seemed that all was working, except no Touch FLO. Checked the Today section settings, no TFLO option. However, under Settings>System there was a TouchFLO icon, it seems to just be options for TFLO. The phone has been working fine with my AT&T SIM, even after hard resetting twice, everytime, (even after leaving it plugged in and on all night) the install stayed frozen. I called HTC support, and apparently my phone is an Indonesian model (that explains why the charging adapter what European, and no carrier logo is found on the box or phone) but they could not fix my problem. Is there anyway I can get TouchFLO?
You'll need to go to settings and set up TouchFlo3D on the startup...

Am I crazy? Has this always been there?

I thought I downloaded and installed Diamond TF3D Config program. It's the one that you can change the tabs on the home page, add and delete tabs, right?
Well, it seems it was slowing down my setup so I tried to delete it several ways and each time it's still there.
So tonight, I came home and did a hard reset. Settings - clear programs - 1234
That does a hard reset, right?
Well, it redoes everything and guess what, the Diamond TF3D Config
program is STILL there....
Am I missing something?
FWIW, I'm using Dutty's 1.4 version ROM
Thanks,
Mark
That is indeed a hard reset. It might be a part of the customizations and to get rid of that, do a soft reset right before the customizations initialize.
Try going to settings/today/items/unclick Touch flo 3D
If you haven't tried it....
Will
I used Dutty's 2.2 ROM and the programme comes pre-installed as part of Dutty's ROM it seems. Using the advice above about soft-resetting before it installs the customisations should work (?) but then you won't have any of the other awesome apps Dutty pre-loads.
Also, I can;t say i have noticed the TF3D config affecting speed (when tried on my stock ROM) especially when the Advanced Configuration tweaks are applied.
Just my thoughts

2.53 TD2 questions

Hi everyone,
my HTC Diamond1, which I've had since release, have now died. When looking for a new phone, the TD2 is currently number one on the list (unfortunately I think the HD2 is too big).
I am a little hesitant to buy a phone which was released almost a year ago. And essentially all the reviews of it is phones with release ROM versions, making it hard to evaluate the current state of the TD2. Now with 2.53 ROM versions officially released, I wonder what the current status of the phone is?
How does the new ROM perform; I love the new Sense version, but does it perform adequately (remember I'm used to TD1 performance...)?
What have changed since the introduction of WM6.5; does battery perform badly now? Better to stick with 6.1?
Are current owners generally happy, or do you think I'm stupid to buy the TD2 instead of perhaps the HD2?
Would be immensely grateful for any input and help to solve my decision agony!
Thanks!
Strong buy
Very happy with my TD2 for almost a year. Used cooked rom of 2.53 and will install official one today. Go and buy it. You will not regret. Keeping in mind expectations differs.
Cheers,
Hi!

The reg key is under HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila => "RSK path and text" but I have found that manila RSK is not configurable in 6.5 even if you tweak the regisrty.
2.53 rom update australia
Hi everyone,
I noticed that HTC didnt release a 2.53 Sense UI ROM for Australia, Does anyone know if its possible to run something like the UK WWE:2.53 rom on an Australian Touch Diamond 2 without issue? Will it even work?
The other issue is that my serial number wont allow me to download anything from w w w.htc.com/uk anyway.
Thanks.

ROM update Australia
kobralabs,
You can download the new ROM update with a random UK serial number like "ht968l100040". It is just to make sure that you are downloading the correct file in your language. If you are OK with the English ROM with Manila 2.53, just download and enjoy it. I did the same thing and enjoying the new Manila.
thanks mehmetkoksal,
I might also download the previous version offical htc australia rom, just in case. Do I need to run something like HARDSPL first in order for the UK ROM to work on an australian htc diamond 2? Oh, btw, what region is your phone?
Thanks
Re-ROM Update Australia
kobralabs,
My phone is from Turkey. Therefore with my original serial number I was not able to download any update even the 6.5 for a long time. Therefore I used a UK serial and downloaded the WWE update. But my Vodafone original ROM did not allow me to update the ROM therefore I hardspled the phone with attached program which unchained my ROM from Vodafone and then I was able to update to new ROM.
Thanks for that mehmetkoksal. I have downloaded the WorldWide English ROM and the linked HARDSPL and will try updating my phone tomorrow. Hopefully Manila 2.5 is not to slow.
Just Flashed the New 2.53 Rom - Problem
Hello I have just flashed to HTC's new rom for the topaz with manilla 2.5, I think it is a great rom and a vast improvement over the 2.1 version.
However the programs icon from the top right of the screen has disappeared from this version, so there is no easy way to shut down programs without going into task manager.
Any suggestions or does anyone have the program as a separate cab to install it.
Regards
Colin Williamson
There is a cab in the Leo forums which brings back the taskmanager in the upper right corner, have a look there.
This one should work, but none of them play well with 6.5.3 because of the drop down menu.

Is your TD2 a T5362 UMTS 850/2100 (Telstra)?
Can anyone comment as to whether the HTC stock WWE 2.53 would be compatible w. the UMTS 850/2100 radio? It would be good to be entirely free of the Telstra modifications.

Predictive text display problem in XT9 mode with new ROM 2.53
Hi
Question for anyone running the new 2.53 ROM recently made available by. HTC
Just upgraded to the new 2.53 ROM and with the XT9 function that I use for predictive text using just the phone pad keyboard (which I prefer over the QWERTY keyboard on the small Diamond 2), now as I type letters, what is displayed on the screen is the actual first letter of each key I press, while potential word matches are shown in highlight boxes. Previously what was displayed in the message screen was the actual predicted word as you typed letters and if it wasn't the word I wanted I could then look at the other options - now, I have to select an option for every word I type.
So with the option for word completion turned on in XT9 mode and using the phone pad keyboard which I always prefer to use, if I type the letters to spell 'car', what is displayed are 'aap' and I then need to select 'car' from displayed matches - damn annoying! Anyone else with this problem or is it a new 'feature'??? Or am I just imaging things and this has always been the case and just seems a little different on the new ROM - going crazy!
Only issue may be that I needed to download the ROM from Asia as that is where my phone was purchased to get my serial number recognised so now in the text input settings is an option to use PinYin as the input method (which I have to select) and use the English version on the keyboard so wondering if this is something to do with it?
Thanks for any help you can give
Tim
Yep, highly annoying! Is quite easy to fix though
Fire up a registry editor, navigate to HKLM / Software / Tegic / eT9 and change "ExactInListMode" to 0
Then soft reset.
Also notice you cannot save your added words between resets..

Official ROM update
I would like to update my diamond2 to the last ROM.
The problem is that if I go to http://www.htc.com/europe/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=912&news_id=596 and put my SN I get Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device.
If I go to http://www.htc.com/sea/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=249&cat=2&dl_id=915 it's working, I just downloaded _HTC Touch Diamond2_RUU_Topaz_S2_hTC_Asia_WWE_2.53.707.4_Radio_Signed_Topaz_61.44etc.25.35_4.49.25.91_Ship.exe
Is it safe to install this ROM? Will it be in english?
PS. I bought the phone from a guy (used, not new) and I don't know from where it was bought.

If you put your SN into the asian website and it came up with a ROM it should work, but I don't know for sure.
WWE means worldwide English, so it is an English language ROM.

Yes, you can install it and yes, it will be in English (WWE = World Wide English) If the site let you download it using your serial number, then it's good to go without any tweaking (ie. HardSPL, etc)
