well first this post doesnt really belong in the upgrading forum... you are wanting help on how to use your device.. best advice for you is to play around with it and try what works best for you, every device is different.. and the first place you need to start looking is the wikki... so what being said:
RTFW

hey i just read that whole post but it was no help . i thought i was doing a upgrade but where would i post my wizard upgrading questoins at if not here?

your post was more directed at today plugin's and app's... the upgrading in this board is directed at changing your roms completely... for apps and plugin's you will wanna use the wizard general board

tmbile wing touchflo

ok guys i did alot of searching tried alot of things but still i have not been able to install a touchflo rom i just got the phone and i have been trying this for the last couple of days and i have no where i downloaded couple of the touchflo version here but still nothing so if someone could put a link to one that works and tell me how to install it i would really appreciate it thanks
You could try to install a rom that already has touchflo cooked in... Starbase64 roms are good for that...
Heres one of his latest ones (28-06-08). Its UC compliant - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=394417
He also has lite roms too....
Cheers....
Just remember to install Hard SPL 1st.... It's not a guarantee to not brick your phone BUT it makes it a hell of a lot easier, and possible, to fix..... Read up on the upgrading forum. Its the post at the top...
Uh.....This guy said the T-Mobile Wing......Which last time I checked is not the Hermes....OP should go to the "Herald ROM Development" section if he wants to flash his Wing......
sorry bro for some reason i couldnt find th herald forum so i thought i had the name wrong and used this but ill go look for it again

XDA Ignito / HTC Touch - Need advice (help) plz :)

hi guys,
I have just joined the forum and this is my first post..
I have bought the XDA Ignito or the HTC Touch Diamond.. and have been exploring the phone. Was wondering if I can get some help here, i know there are lots of posts there but some things are complicating to me!
Just to inform that I am a newbie with all this stuff.
I want to customise few things:
I'm on orange and therefore I dont want the O2 screen at the start, and although I like the blue and white theme (of the TouchFlo3D), I would like to see the original version (black) also..
In the Internet option, When I click on Launch Browser, nothing happens and I have to manually open Internet Explorer from the Start menu!
I thought it is possible to browse the web in landscape by tilting the phone, but when I tilt the device nothing happens. Is it because im using Internet Explorer?
What do I need to do to purely customise my new toy lol
Also I would like to know of any tweaks that I may be able to do to maybe make the phone more faster?
One more question, I would like to know how long on average does the battery last? Mine lasts just about a day!
Thank you lot in advance! Appreciate all the help I can get!
Cheers
dakz
The simple answer is to flash a new rom. This will make your phone a standard diamond and remove the O2 branding
Internet explorer does not work in landscape. Most diamond's have Opera installed as the default browser which does switch to landscape
The new Rom should make your phone faster - the custom roms are usually tweaked for speed
If it's new, you are probably playing with your new toy a lot, so 1 day battery is about right
You could also try diamond tweak or advanced config from this forum. Both allow you to tweak in a user friendly way
There are sticky threads about these at the start of this very diamond forum
hey hays
firstly thanks for the reply..
So where do I or can I download the new rom and is it easy to 'flash' it? But before that i would want to know how to backup the current one just incase therex problems later!
Regarding the browser, i will try find the opera browser n download and make it the default, hoping that will work!
Right once i get those things done i will search the tweaks..
cheers so far
dakz
I downloaded Opera, including the new beta version from their website and yet it does not tilt to landscape when i turn the phone
Can someone who is able to browse the web in landscape plz tell me which version of Opera you are using?
thanks
opera browser landscape version??
no one willing to put an input??? Need to know the opera version!
I suggest you to backup files using spb backup and then flash the rom you like. It's easy, there is a fine tutorial. Probably you will have opera with it.
cheers
thanks for that
spent most of today just researching it around the forums, catching up on all the terminology that had been confusing me lol
I will download n flash a new ROM soon.. but I would like to backup my current one, which is 1.93.206.3 WWE and Radio version 1.00.25.05.
Anyone know where I can download these original ones?
thanks once again.
dakz
I know nothing about backuping whole rom, but I suggest you not to worry about that, there are few O2 roms here I think, radio also is no problem
yeh i might forget about backing up the whole ROM and instead im just going to find 1.93.206.3 WWE ROM sumwhere lol and then i can start messing about!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=430636
dont work!
thanks idrisito, i've checked that thread earlier today..
the link they provide in there dont exist any more
does it not! ill sort it out when i get home!
found it, i think!
well i did find "O2 XDA Ignito ROM 1.93.206.3 WWE November_2008.rar" from http://www.mediafire.com/?wz2amnzyk1w located in the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=430636&page=5.
Now im slightly confused, will this do as my backup or should I wait until you sort out the link u have given me earlier?
that link i posted (i.e. the first one on the XDA ignito thread) does work ! i just downloaded from it !
thats the latest one it should say december 7th!
the other one i upped whic youv got does not display the splash screen correctly
once you'v downloaded the december 7th one that should allow you to return to the stock ROM, after flashing other ROMs, if you want to ever return for warranty purposes!
wicked! thanx
Hey idrisito thanks bro!!
dont know what happened!! its strange lol it was not working before! honest!
well im downloading it right now.
I also managed to flash Hard-SPL-Diamond-OliNex 1.40 and updated my Radio to v1.03.25.18 from 1.00.25.05. How would i find out which radio is better lol are there any things i should look for?
Two days of hard reading on this forum ahh lol but glad its done successfully without any problems.. next stage is to find a good ROM and flash that! Might start with the HTC's original one and compare it to the O2's blue theme.
thanks n keep up the good work
update: I just tried to flash Diamond_WWE_1.93.707.157 ROM but for some reason was unsucessful! It ends up with the following message after 1%:
error [244] INVALID MODEL ID
What am i doing wrong?
dakz
you need to carrier unlock your phone (CID unlock) if you want to flash any ROM!
have you installed unsigned hard SPL? (i suggest unsigned)
it probably didnt work cos the rom your installing is for a different region!
go for one of UDKs or some of the othe widely used ROMs in the forum!
there is a way round flashing the rom you currently have but it involves deconstrucing>> changing the model ID>>reconstructing the ROM and then flashing!
its easy enough once you know how!
the best radio in my opinion is the one suggested in UDK R3 ROM thread

I would be glad to help with any questions as well as I was once in your position
All queries regarding flashing and use of HSPL & USPL should be posted in dummies guide thread.
All queries relating to themes should be posted in relevent theme thread.
No need to create new thread. Please try and abide by forum rules in future.

Camera not working on P3400 since day one

Hi All:
I bought a P3400i about an year ago and the camera on the phone has not been working since the day I purchased it.
I tried tapping on the camera icon under Programs, Tried pressing the Camera button on the device, and even tried locating the Camera EXE file and tapped it. The camera app doesn't open at all. I tried a hard reset as well. It still is not working.
(But whenever I tap on the camera Icon under 'programs' it promptly appears on the 'recent programs' list under the 'start' menu)
Please help!
Is there a solution to my above problem? Its so frustrating to have this phone without a camera. Would be great if someone could help.

Try to load a custom ROM and see if its a driver related issue. Or try a stock ROM from the wiki. But PLEASE PLEASE Read the stickies about upgrading in ROM Dev section properly before taking a dip.

Before downloading the stock ROM, you will have to find out whether your gene is 'Old' or 'New'. To find that out there is a thread by ramersonw in the Gene\ROM Development section - have a look there.
But make sure that you do not patch your SPL (since You never said that you want to flash your device with a custom ROM ).
You can find your stock ROM in the Gene wiki. at

Best of luck

Thanks Addicted. A couple things though:
1.) The HTC Gene Wikiwiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Gene only has two stock ROMs. One for WM 5 and one for WM 6. I have a P3400i running WM 6.
So, When I click on the WM6 link there, it goes toforum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=396744. Now this thread has another linky to a rapid share file called Old_gene_original_WM6.rar. Is this file only for the old gene? Where do I find the stock ROM if my phone is a new Gene?
Please advise.
2.) I couldn't find the thread for identifying new and old gene. Please help!
dude plz do hard reset ur gene......no need to do all the stuff......but if u wana do,then plz read all the threads of upgrading vry carefully.....
@above
I did try a hard reset. It still isn't working.
Actually, I am scared of this ROM flashing thingy
Is there any other way to set this thing right. May be a driver or something I can install for the camera to make it work? Any help would be really appreciated.
plz change ur rom.......i think it will help u out of this stufff......b4 changing rom plz read here each & every step carefully....all d best
