Yes, everything works. It's basically the same hardware, just more memory. The only things that wouldn't work are related to the lack of physical keyboard on the magic (but you do have software keyboard for most).

Thanks. Tried from my friend's Magic. It's really good and smooth when running applications. No big deal in the absent of physical keyboard.

Hello!
Anyone know if there is a Stock exchange application on the Touch Diamond?
Just like the one in the IPhone.

Im getting used to that response. Theres simply nothing new these days that works WITH the Diamonds VGA screen rather than against it.
Im seriously beginning to wonder why I bought a Diamond.

Okay so whats the solution for the stock exchange app then? There isnt one.
There are no damn apps being developed anymore for WM especially on high end VGA devices.
I too would like a decent stock exch app.. if im moaning over nothing, point me in the right direction and i'd gladly shut up
Well it wasn't a good app.I better just wait for a better app to come a long.

I can only see about 1/2 of the cells vertically. I guess it only works if you reduce your text size in windows... but then the phone itsn't finger friendly anymore.
yes,i also have that problem.
Try this:

I used on my Kaiser and use in my Diamond...
Works perfect.
It has only one issue...
SOmetimes, when you starts the program, there is a fade on the screen... But you have only to press the power button twice and the programs goes well...
Would be great if HTC Home has a tab for stock exchange and share price update. HTC did it for weather, why stop there. Stock price should be next.
Yes,i agree. Hopfully a application that will work perfectly with the TouchFLO 3D.

HTC Touch and Android

Hello,
Apologies if I'm in the wrong place (again).. I'm trying to buy a new phone and would love to run an android port on it. I'm currently looking at Sprint - at the HTC Touch Diamond ($199 after rebate etc) or the HTC Touch Pro ($299.. less desirable) the sprint site doesn't mention a querty keypad for the Touch Diamond.. Is it fair to assume the Touch Diamond is not a good candidate for android - or is there a touch screen keyboard now?
I'm really sorry if this post is off topic.. I've been all over the intertubes trying to find a good smartphone that will effectively run an android port (I'm well aware its under heavy development) that will atleast make phone calls (or should be able to soon). If the Touch Diamond won't work - can someone recommend a different phone?
Thanks,
Keith
Well seeing as the HTC magic and Hero are both non qwerty it would be safe to assume that there is an on board virtual keyboard.

If you read the last sentence of the first paragraph - you would notice I'm referring specifically to the android port.. I got my phone already, thanks.

I'm new to this whole .. rooting thing

Alright, so I just got a Rogers G1 and I would like to get THE smoothest, most fluid, feature-packed ROM. I have Android 1.5 right now. So.. where do I start? Thanks!

Might wanna wait did you see this yet?

Magics will be given to dream owners.
You should have gotten the magic since it has more ram and will be supported longer with updates.
You can always use search button or even simple google search:
"Rogers Dream+Root" heres one

Well.. I use AT&T's 3G, as I live in the US. So, I had to "import" it from Canada. I already have a jailbroken iPhone 3G S. So, I really don't want another touch screen phone with the same form factor. The G1 has the physical keyboard and seems like it could make a pretty good back-up phone. Do you think it's pointless for me to keep this G1, even if I get the latest and smoothest ROM available???

Seems like you got the phone just for the KB and not the OS. You just need to read carefully so you dont end up bricking your phone.

The HTC Dream is the only phone with Android that I can think of that has support for AT&T's 3G network AND a physical keyboard. The BACKFLIP is coming out, but ... yeah, I'll pass on the whole MOTOBLUR OS. Also, what are my chances of bricking the phone? Seeing as I've never done this before and have no clue where to start.

You can worry about that later your jumping the gun already and your phone is still stock.
First you need to root and if your successful then you can worry about using roms.

Nexus on the kaiser

is it possible to get the Nexus One operating system to run as HaRET on the Kaiser?

The Nexus One runs Android 2.1 with some custom UI stuff made by HTC(/Google?). Technically the answer to your question is "yes".
If you are asking "Can the Kaiser duplicate the exact same look and feel as the Nexus One?" the answer is No.
YMMV but in my experience there are some really good Kaiser android builds in the forum here. They may not have animated wallpapers, voice search, fully functional bluetooth or camera, but very impressive for the Kaiser.
Thanks
thanks i will have a look but can anyone suggest one that has the the feel of the Nexus One because i don't no whether to buy one
Thanks

If you have the option , buy one. Running Eclair on your Kaiser will not give any kind of indication at all , how the Nexus One will be. The Kaiser has a smaller screen less than half the processor speed, and will only boot from inside WM.
You will probably learn more by watching you tube videos of the Nexus One than by running 2.1 on your Kaiser.
Moved as not ROM Development.
Like others state theoretically possible but spec wise the Kaiser does not cut the mustard.
There are some new versions of 2.1 that alredy has animation working and voice search and camera the only thing different from the nexus one is the menu
Got the Nexus
i got the nexus one now it's great but I'm not gonna change any software on it because i just want to see what the actual phone software on it is like.

That is an easy equation
Google + HTC = crap
Google + HTC + XDA = fast, smooth, no bloatware, useable
WRONG

no it's actually really good not slow at all and i will cusimize it once i just see what it can do without any off that because i have no doubt xda will make it a lot better.

[Q] Touchscreen Lag IncS

Hey folks,
I'm experiencing with my IS, as mentioned in the title, an input lag of the touchscreen. It is not really disturbing, but the fact, that my friends Wildfire recognizes the input better, with Stock 2.1 ROM installed, bothers me really
In the moment I'm S-off on Android Revolution HD 1.1.2, which has a slightly better input than stock 2.3.3, but it is still there. Please tell me, if you are experiencing similar problems.
thanks Max
Only thing I've noticed so far is that if you drag slowly In some applications (like the browser, doesn't matter which browser I'm using) it doesn't scroll at all... but in the settings menu I can swipe downwards as slow as I want to, so I guess what I'm experiencing is software related...
What I really want to know is if I'm alone, or if there has noticed the same thing
Sent from a dumb phone
with my IcS... ive noticed that certain parts of my screen at the randomest times will stop recognizing input.... for me this happens exactly at the O and N key... after leaving it for a few seconds... it starts working again so not much of an issue to me...
there is an app in market place called touchscreen booster... maybe apply that and see if that helps u change the sensitivity...

thanks for the advice danial.aw. I tried your method, but the only touchscreen booster app i found in the market was for SGS, so that hadn't had any effect
Keeps annoying me buying a 500$ phone that has such a crappy touchscreen...
Sounds to me like you might have a faulty unit if it's bad with both stock and custom ROMs. Never had any issue with mine.

Not a clue I'm afraid. Always worth asking them I suppose.
well yes it says thats its for SGS only... but the app worked on my Atrix when i had it... so im assuming it might actually help more phones than that... try it out and see...
Doesn't make any difference no matter what i set in the app. I will drive to a store today to see if it might be subjective but I don't think so.
Edit: well it's not only subjective, I'll give the warranty a try, lets see how the will react
wooh got all of my money back, I'm moving to WP7 now. Android hasnt persuaded me...maybe again when 4.0 comes out.

If you are leaving android id probably recommend waiting for the next iPhone not wp7

God WP7 is woeful, the mango update had better fix/add a lot of features...
No I've tested the one from my sister for already two months and I'm very content with WP7. A Phone should be fast and I'm not really into Apple's politics.
You will be in microsofts politics though. WP7 is as closed down as ios. At least with apple you get a good warranty service.
