troubles with the compass:
I installed latest (mango fit) version of skymap app. If I activate "point to sky" it told me, that there is no compass.
hd2 have a compass and the htc compass app works correctly.
do I make something wrong or is this a possible bug: compass api maybe doesn't work for third party apps or so ....
anybody experienced this problem or is there already a solution (can't find one)?
I have the same problem, after loading ISV Beta cleanup SkyMap, HTC Locations all report 'Sorry no compass'
I read in the Back to the future thread that it was suggested to do a hard reset and after doing this and reloading the above they still report no compass.
The HTC compass works but I understand this talks to the hardware directly and not via WP7
I have tried several hard resets just in case but still no good.
Any help anyone?
i have this issue with compass from 7720 RTM update... HTC Compass work but in applications which need compass say "not detected" (for example HTC Locations)... hard reset never helped with this (in RTM and final Mango)...
When you even try to install this app, it says:
Not all the features of this app will work, because your phone doesn't have the following:
*Compass
Microsoft is not providing compass drivers as part of Mango, device manufacturers are responsible for that:

For compass to work we need official HTC HD7 update.
So just about everyone with a HTC will have the same problem by the sound of it

Not only those with HTC but also Samsung, LG, etc.
If they forced the update before schedule, then yes because they only updated the OS but not the firmware. The updated OEM firmware comes through carrier update.
To return to our case, check the firmware version (Settings>About) and you'll see it's still 2250.21.40600.444, even if you installed the official update through Zune. Will we recieve the update notification from our carriers? I don't know, maybe not. I guess we have to wait until somebody (DF Team, XBmod, ?) finds a solution for this too.
I hope I understand things correctly and didn't talk bollocks...

Yes you understand fine, I was under the impression it was only HTC who were 'lazy' in issuing carrier updates but I dident know the others were the same.
fingers crossed one of the devs finds something

Did you get the HTC post Mango update? (404443_2250.21.40502.401_oemupdate_release.cab.pks)
Because the HTC OEM update that comes after Mango contains those drivers if i understood things correctly.

Cant see that one but these have recently been posted...

Try explicitly choosing the category "ROM upgrade". Then it will show up.

Yeah, I had done that, nothing new showed up on my end.
EDIT: I just re-checked their site and see that there are sub-categories for the Diamond now, by carrier, and there is a Dec 08 upgrade for some users (Telus).
I also figured out that there is a very recent Jan 09 update for the Euoropean stock version.
I'll have just have to wait for a stock US ROM upgrade for an unlocked US GSM.

Thanks, that is the update for UK users. It took me longer than it should but I finally realized that on the HTC site, I needed to "Select Country" before checking on Diamond Support, etc. It is different strokes, for different folks.
Have anybody noticed any changes/news in this rom besides the small bug fixes mentioned by HTC????
Seems to be a very minor update...

I agree, doesn't appear to be much for a 5-6 month update given the abundance of tweaks on this forum that add a lot user flexibility. At least on the update where I looked at the change summary, there also doesn't appear to be any substantive memory or battery life management improvements either.

Hi all
on the htc dream web site it says that the dream has a Digital compass and motion sensor ..
where do we find these on the phone??
I cant see them
Hiya
You can't see them. But you can use them. Download "Compass" from market and then you can use/see the compass.
Research on how they work by urself.
i cant dont have market
then look up for a APK file of Compass and ADB install it

You can also find some .apks on the net.
To see the motion sensor in action, you can download "Bubble"
Its a level
You can also turn on auto-rotation in settings to use the accelerometer (motion sensor)
thank you for all the help guys
i think the problem is that i have android 1.1 thats why there is nothing under settings for auto-rotation.
how do you install files after downloading them off the net

set up adb if you havent already (guide is posted as stickies and you can search for them as well)
then just
Code:
adb install C:\appname.apk
where C:\appname.apk is the full path to the application
You can also upgrade to cupcake w/ the available updates online

Update to 'Cupcake' 1.5? Of Course! You should have received the over-the-air (OTA) update by now :-S
But anyway, what do you mean you don't have the market?
Microsoft has already started rolling out its updates

Guys I believe you have to have Zune 4.8 - I am not sure though
I had RTM and when I connected to Zune it gave me an HTC UPDATE and everything ran smoothly
After update I just did a reset just to see if HTC had anything especial and now HTC apps won't update or say not available for my country and that rubbish
Also no HTC TAB on MARKET!!!!
Reboot dosen't solve it either

Yeh, you need to be on 4.8, Im on 4.8.2345.0 so no problem there, its just a case of O2 releasing the update to me.

Yeh, from what I've gathered, O2 sends the update out to groups of its users at a time, so I must not be in the 1st group...
Also I have seen the HTC Apps propblem mentioned a couple of times so hopefully for your sake there will be a thread on how to fix it soon
Forced it, thank you so much for the heads up... Currently updating!
i tried forcing it, it still says im up to date with version 7.10 (7720). does having hspl matter at all here?

Usually before a major update is smaller which is in preparation for the larger.
why don't they just include the small update into the big one
