Hi,

As far as I know, yes. Isn't that easy enough?

I considered this allready and maybe I will do it, but as long as the phone is sitting in the Krussel case I have to make a hole into the case as well.
I do not understand at all why SE made the rest button not accessable from the outside.
Anyway - many thanks for the tip
dingolino
It's not only SE. I think it's the new thing to do
Touch HD has the same problem.

Pure marketing strategy...
Imagine yourself buying a new phone: "ah, the reset button is very accessible, hmmm this device should hang up often..."
either that or - "damn i dropped my phone and now the soft reset button is jammed in, i wish they made it on the inside/more protected"
i think the soultion in the touc diamond is a very good one.
Its hidden unter the stylus. No one sees it, its protected and easy to use.
Agreed, this is purely for 'own protection' for some dumbo users

Same goes for the X1, but the cover is just on top of all that, just check it.
Lol
And of course the reason it's the same thing on the Xperia s because the Xperia is actually made by HTC anyway. It's hidden inside so dumbos go pressing it too easily or by accident.

fake what ?
simple.. go to jwelery shop. hehe

there is a chance that the'll do it even better from the original!
If they are anything like the iPhone copies I wouldnt hold me breath! Its bound to happen tho!
what about registering at htc e-club... ?
or do you mean before buying the device?
Looks like they mean BEFORE purchasing the device.
Eg how do you know the device is fake?
From what ive seen of the iPhone fakes they are pretty obvious but ive yet to see a copy of the Diamond. The iPhone fakes looked kinda ok, but the software on them wasnt very good at all. (check YouTube for some examples!)
I guess it would be obvious from where you purchased it from eg eBay (thats where they usually are for sale!)
its been done.

it is simple look for HTC logo between screen and buttons ... this copy obviously doesn`t have it and thinking about it they can`t put it there because then it would be crime and they could be prosecuted for it ...
Even the box is styled like the Diamonds with -"CECT Smart Mobility" on it! (not high quality plastic like the original Diamonds box, hehe!) They have even left the HTC logo on the phone on the box artwork!
Cheeky fellows!

The problem is when they put pictures of the real Diamond and then send you one of those fakes Anyway just avoid ebaying expensive items to sellers with less than 1000 votes and you should be confident that they are selling what they are showing on the pics.
yep ensure for buyers protection and you won`t have a problem at all ... you can always contact e-bay about buying fake item

I don't think they have windows mobile installed.
Hello.
I am a long time Windows Mobile user and have used some of the great utilities here on XDA in the past but this is my first post.
Please dont flame me to much I searched the forums and did not find a direct answer so now I must ask.
I am a long time WM 6.1 BA user and finally purchased a tilt over the weekend on ebay.
This thing is great! Except
Three of the D-PAD buttons are not working: down, left, and right.
They do not light up the keys when pressed. My first assumption is hardware.
Second assumption is a conflict with what is installed.
Hopefully someone here can give me some insight.
A few specs:
HYPERDRAGON III
KAIS1*0 MFG
SPL-1.0.0 LIPOF
CPLD-8
R 1.65.24.36
G 25.94.40.06W
D 3.SJ.HD.03
I think some of this could use updating but if its hardware I am not going to waster my time.
Thanks for any suggestions and thanks for such a great forum!
its hardware.
It may not have nothing to do with the problem you described, but I noticed you are using SPL 1.0.0. HD III requires HardSPL 3.29.
So, flash the right one. In case of not solving the D-PAD button issue, at least it would prevent other issues.

Is there a solution to this? Can the button hardware be purchased somewhere for a reasonable price?
As far as the update I have to wait for a usb cable but most likely will be doing nothing other than returning it.

Just buttons. No hardware there.
So is there anywhere to get the hardware buttons?
Is there somewhere to get the hardware buttons for these that anyone is aware of? I am not afraid to open this thing up to fix it.

Hey there.
My Xperias screen is broken, the bottom half is dead but the touch is still working. The phone is fully functional except for this and that the slider is bent in the lower left corner a few millimetres. I am using my old K810i and I'm buying a new phone soon, but just leaving a functional Xperia to rot in a drawer seems a bit... uneconomical?
NOTE: I will NOT be repairing the screen. No, there is no insurance that covers a broken screen. No, I won't buy a replacement screen for 90 bucks. Don't suggest it, please.
What I am looking for are uses for this device now that I've decided not to repair it and rather get a new phone, so don't give me comments like "Why not fix it?", if you'd be kind. I want to utilize the phone as it is, maybe the keyboard can be connected to my PS3, maybe I can sell the phone, maybe I can use it as something else. All suggestions are welcome!
Thanks
/Felix
Anything else than selling it will require huge effort and good tech skills.
if you're not gonna fix it, sell it; it's basically useless. Give someone else the chance to resurrect it.

Hm.. since there are devices with a 480x480 resolution on WM6.1, I am thinking it might be possible to cook a ROM that uses 480x480 instead of 480x800 and therefore the part of the screen that's still working would be quite usable.
I don't know if this would really work or if anyone has ever even tried it, it's just an idea.
YE, lets cook a rom for one device oO
[x]sell it
maybe a tech freak will love the opportunity!

I know what you can do, start your own phone store and use that X1 as a display model.
Haha, "Askew Xperia with random cracks and scratched battery cover"
Thank you all for your tips. I'll try to sell it for 80 bucks or so, if I don't find using it for my PS3 EXTREMELY useful ^^

Sell it to us.
Think I should put it up on the marketplace? Appropriate pricing...?
Dont know if anyone else is feeling this way but I ve failed to turn the device on a little to often from the power button sitting so low. But just to throw it out there, I bought the nice transparent back -black/frame case from T-Mo and now like a breeze no more problems with switching the power on. And also the camera button people been saying "is to hard to press" is a breeze as well.
Yep, I've found this as well. Kind of glad its not just my device and its just a design thing. Its ok, slightly annoying, sure I'll get used to it.
It gets better overtime... either that or I just got used to it.
another reason why I am getting the venue pro
Yeah but it works for me, though. When I used my Touch Pro2, I always hit the power button accidentally while in my pocket. The HD7 is less likely to do this.
I just got it today so I'll update if anything changes.
DJ Lu - Was the case you got at T-Mo an HD7 specific case or was it for some other phone? I'm looking for a nice case for the phone if anyone has any good suggestions for here in the USA.

I'm not sure which case he's using, but I bought the T-Mobile HD7 case that they had in-store, it's this case: http://mobilitydigest.com/speck-case-available-for-windows-phone-hd7/
It makes the power and camera button a lott easier to turn on.
@Jonded, yes its a specific case for HD7. @ace its just like that one but with a transparent back. But yes it fits perfectly And it dont look cheap at all..

Quite liking that. Will need to find a UK distributor.
Guess I have to be different. But I like the fact that the button's flushed because I tend to keep my phone in my pocket. This reduces my chance of powering the device accidentally, like I used to do with my Touch Pro2.
Agreed, I used to do this a lot with my HD2, turn it on and butt call people. i think its more of the fact that the button is on a bit of a slanted edge, so you just have to press it at an angle. For example, if you are looking at your phone, you have to press the button slightly at an angle away from you, not just down
im actually returning my hd7 for that reason .. not only power button the camera button too .. hard to take a pic ..i dont see it lasting more than 6 month pressing it the way u have to in order to take a pic..gonna return it and wait for the dell. or switch to att and get samsung...

Just buy the case T-Mobile has for it, it makes the buttons a lot easier to press, they actually feel normal. You'll probably want a case on your phone anyways. If you like the Dell for another reason, then go for it.

Hi there,
I am from Singapore and there is NO CASE for HD7 at all. I tot the case you bought looks great. I was just wondering if you are able to help purchase 1 for me, and then mail it to me? I can take care of all the payments through paypal if you are fine with it?

Sorry, I can't do that for you, I'm only 18 and still living with my parents, my mom would think it's weird if I mailed something to someone online. She's not very trusting like that, I am though. Maybe someone else could do it for you.

If you can't get it done. Here is a case from Fommy that will be available on the 27th of this month. Probably about the same time it will take to get it shipped to you I'm about to order one myself and it's WAY cheaper than the 30 bucks tmobile wants for their subpar cases. http://www.fommy.com/view-full-page.asp?divid=HTC&model=HTC+HD7&cat=cases&skuno=89932
I've been having problems with the sensitivity of the top 2mm of my phone's screen. I don't remember when it started but I think it was around a couple of months ago.
Before, it was only difficult for me to swipe the notification bar down, but now, I can no longer swipe it down unless I rotate the screen.
I don't remember how or exactly when it started, but I remember that I was using ARHD 70.0, then I updated to 71.1 in attempt to fix it, but it only worked for a while but it came back again. I also tried other roms such as MaximusHD and Eragon but still the same. I also tried rebooting to safe mode but still the same. I also used both stock and elemental sense kernels.
I updated my firmware back then to 6.06 and now to 6.07 but still nothing. I haven't tried downgrading yet though.
I tried using the line draw test and the result is found below.
Does anyone know how to fix this? I already searched xda and google but i found no solution to my problem.
It could be a hardware related issue. If it's still under warranty revert it to stock and re-lock the bootloader and just send it back.

Has your device been dropped or been water damaged? The digitizer connection from the mb could have became a bit loose.
*Edit*
I have read on a forum for the HTC One X which seems to have a similar issue to yours where a part of the screen is unresponsive. Someone suggested to clean the connector.

I did some more research about it and people are saying it is a digitizer issue. So replacing the digitizer should fix it, but you will need to buy the lcd and digitizer together as its nearly impossible to replace them separate from eachother.
Quote from androidcentral
It's definitely a hardware issue. I have been dealing with the same issue for about 6 months now. When I try to swipe down to bring up the notification bar I get absolutely no feedback . If I give it a smack with my palm near the top corners I can often times get it to start working again. However, it's usually short lived.

I see. Thank you very much for the help. I think I'll just send this to the service center when I get the chance. I will probably ask them to fix the red tinted camera as well. I just hope it won't be too expensive.
You have a dead spot. Sorry kid. If updating the OS still gives you the funk, you need a new screen.

You could do it yourself and save a bit of money if you know what your doing. There are tutorials on YouTube.
