I must change my Elf because my baby damaged my Elf.
I whont take the Elfin but where are the differences????
The peoples that warks in the shops doesn't knows the difference...
For the simple.....
The Silver Elf is ever elfin or not???
There is a serial number that i must know????
Tnx
wrong forum, the elf is the one above
The difference is basic: memory space.
Elf has a 128M ROM and a 64M RAM.
Elfin has a 256M ROM and 128M RAM.
For my Elfin I noticed a change in model number, it has P3452 visible at bottom of his box.
PD: Maybe this is a wrong forum for that question... but if you wanna help, do it.
Ok I am new to this and I want to add the manilla 2d to my hone, but how do I find out if it is a ELf or Elfin?
lol... i'll answer that for the millionth time...
if u have 64MB Ram --> it's an Elf
if u have 128MB Ram --> it's an Elfin
That's it
Thanks I was kinda figuring that was it.
Hi, i'm getting a new phone in the next few days and there's a lot i would like to know before buying.
i know Touch comes in two models (elf and elfin), and that both viva and Elfin have same rom and ram memory, what other differences are there between the Elfin and the viva and which is recommended?
If i flash an Elf model, will it become as fast and as good as a flashed elfin?
comparing all three of them, assuming they have all been flashed with the latest os (6.5 stable i believe?) are there no significant differences between them?
I wanna know as much as possible because i have the possibility to buy any of them and the difference of prices between them is very little, but the HTC Touch looks much nicer than the viva, and i'm still not sure if the touch is Elf or Elfin (64 or 128 rom and 128 or 256 ram right?)
i'm sorry for this post, i'm pretty sure someone else has already asked all this before but i searched a lot on this forum and didn't found all the answers.
Go for HTC Touch Elfin and use one of the cooked roms here in xda.
Touch Viva has the same hardware as the elfin,the difference is it only has updated WM version (6.0 in elfin vs 6.1 in viva) and has touchflo out of the box.
I recommend using miky's roms or onyx but you must hardspl your device first
Miky's Rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=541886
Onyx Rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=426540
or try this rom
Ahen's Rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=569687
Edit:
HardSPL is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=445666
use 3.10
hope it helps
thanks a lot dude... i´ll come back when i have it.
..
So this means that HTC Viva just upgraded the OS to WM 6.1 and change into a different housing?
Do they have same hardware components?
HTC Vivahas changes in hardware Tri-band vs Quad-band but thats the only hardware difference there is and also you wont notice any performance increase since its using the same slow omap850
a regular elf has 64Mb RAM/128Mb ROM
an elfin has 128Mb RAM/256Mb ROM
htc viva = elfin only cheaper
OIC. So It means elfin is ok. which do you prefer?
I purchase HTC touch because of the price and luckily it was the enhanced edition.
Hi guys,
i have a pre-release of HTC HD2. In the hardware settings i notice that i have 320 MB (RAM size).
Actually i have the duttys ROM and i would like to know if there's a possibility to enable the 576 MB (RAM size).
If yes how is it possible?
Thanks in advance.
Niccolo
Well I would also like to know that on T8585 can we enable the 576MB RAM..!!!
Thanks..!!!
Nic:
What RAM does it say in 'Hardware information'?
Hi,
RAM Size=320MB (Hardware information).
Actually i installed the radio 2.08 and the Duttys ROM.
Thanks in advance

and what it shows now after inistllation of the dutty and the radio is it still 320
I have a t8585 (O2 hd2) with 448Mb RAM (after installing some stuff).
Hi guys,
after the installation of "Duttys_LEO_Sense_2.5_5.2.23544.5.5.0_2.10_HG_Ultimate_Radio_2.08.50.8.2_V1.1_WWE" i have in the hardware information always 320MB (RAM Size).
So i'm thinking that it's not possible to unlock hidden memory (if there's), in my model (i have a pre-release of HD2).
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks again

A Pre-Release?
Also there are guides on how to obtain the full RAM.
I have the same device T8585 with 448 MB Ram - on the hardware info page -
But it seems to work with only 336MB Ram on the Task Manager page :/

I haven't found anything that solves the situation.
I tried many ROMs (with 576 enabled), but i always have in the hardware information 320MB (RAM Size). So if you know some link, documents, ROM, please send me detail.
Thanks in advance.
Niccolo
Alright stock hd2 should have 448 ram on it no matter what, i had rom 1.43 and i had 448mb ram now im using Energy's rom and i have 576 ram flashed alot of other roms with 576ram enabled and i havent got any probs.
Be sure to flash the correct Radio/Rom cuz from what ive read on the forums only a few radio's enable 576mb ram hope this helps xD
I have the following situation (Software Information)
OS version: 5.2.21895 (21895.5.0.90)
Manila version: 2.5.20121412.1
ROM version: Dutyys HG Ultimate V1.1 WWE
Radio Version: 2.08.50.08_2
Protocol version: 15.34.50.07U
Resuming i installed the Duttys ROM that contains all the features for the 576MB enabled but in the Hardware infromation i always have 320MB (RAM size).
Thanks

Humm considering the rom u have and radio it should show u 576mb ram really strange.
Try flashing another rom with ram enabled to test it, if not mayb its just not showing it but the ram is actually enabled
and use MTTY(u can find the sticky in Rom Dev thread) between flashing so u have a clean base.
I have tested many ROMs that says 576MB enabled but the result was always the same (320MB in RAM Size).
Thanks

may be you need to upgrade it to 448 first then to 576 , try this

There is no upgrade to 448 as this is the standard. If you really got the pre-release some users could see in early videos of the HD2 then this is a hardware-issue which can not be fixed/improved. Only chance i see is to contact HTCs RepairService and ask if a physical upgrade is possible and what it would cost... Sorry Mate
BTW: Where did you get that pre-release ?
Elburna,
after many ROMs installed i think that the only solution is to contact HTC and ask if a physical upgrade is possible.
Thanks

The reason to that your only seeing 320/336MB of ram is because HD2 uses 128MB for graphics/graphical acceleration.
So 320+128=448
But if there is a way to further increase the amount of ram to 576MB even if you bought the 448MB edition then i would like to hear about it to!
EDIT: LOL, found just seconds after writing this post that you can flash the newest 2.10 Radio ROM to enable 576MB, but i think that you'll have to install a new Custom ROM to make use of the 576MBs . But you will still have 128MB of the 576MB used to graphics. But there might be custom rom that enables full usage of the 576MBs.

I got an HTC Pro Three too, the pre release version of HD2.
So you mean, this device has 448mb too? its just that 320MB is the allocated RAM to the user, and the 128MB are for graphics? that's odd, because currently with the latest Artemis ROM, i do have maximum of 60 to 65MB of free RAM available (this rom has the highest free ram i have ever tried) which limits my device's activities, i can't do multi taking that much.
So with the 448MB HD2 (official), there is also a hidden RAM of 128MB so that it can be unlocked and make use all (576MB) of the 128MB, which i assume is also dedicated for graphics. ( 448 + 128 = 576MB ).
I think that these two devices are different in terms of RAM (HD2 and the pre release of HD2).
For the HD2, hacking the ROM and using 2.06, 2.07 and 2.08 (2.10) radio versions will make the 576MB free to the user, thus eliminating the rom to dedicate the 128MB to graphics.
While for the HD2 Pre Release (HTC Pro Three), has a total of 320MB of RAM, 128MB is dedicated to the video and hidden from the user. I would like to think also that the radio versions mentioned above will be able to unlock the hidden 128MB, but IMO, there should be a different rom hack for this HTC Pro Three, as the hack applied on the HD2 (448MB ) won't apply here.
Any tips from the cooks how to make the rom for hd2 (448mb) 576MB ram compatible? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
pls i have this htc elf0200 with me ram size 64mb,flash size 128mb and also i need english rom for this phone.If it is elf please can i use any elf rom on it?

your device is classified Htc Elf (with specification of Internal Memory: RAM: 64MB, ROM: 128MB) while the HTC Elfin (Internal Memory: RAM: 128 MB, ROM: 256 MB) but the two are similar, so for the rom file there is no difference!
