Can someone help me verify.. - Touch CDMA General

I think I'm about to start a sprint contract.. looking to purchase a new phone - that runs android. I'm looking at the HTC touch Pro - as I'm assuming this is the forum discussing this phone. Can someone verify this for me as well as does it 'mostly' work - ie - phone calls, text messages etc..
Thanks and I can't wait to join the masses!

This is a forum for the HTC Vogue, AKA the Touch or Verizon xv6900. It runs Windows Mobile professional. There is a project that aims to put Android on the Touch and has succeeded rather well so far.
The Touch Pro (the diamond with a keyboard) would definetely make a good work phone and do what you say you want it to. You are in the wrong forum though.

This needs to be done!
please can someone get this working on a Diamond and HD... I would be willing to make a Paypal donation and I am sure others will too...
The way Sony Ericsson is trying to fragment the windows mobile community with its exclusive 'panels' is really negative..
Do they even have the "panels" application working on the diamond yet??
i would also like to see this work on htc phones
Any SS of the application?
Theres even a facebook app for Android now, but yet again WM gets left out in the cold. WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON??!

BUMP for the sake of the WM community..
Well. Panels has been ported to HTC Blackstone. Its gonna be a while before it gets ported to Diamond and then we can have this Fb panel working in Diamond.
Please, more informations?
will it be possible to send online msg's in the chat window with this app?
Any news?
Has panels been ported to the HTC Touch Diamond by anyone?
Are there any members working on this at the moment?!
Would like to see the Facebook Panel ported to the HTC Touch Diamond too. I think that a Facebook Application is about the one thing that really should be on the Touch Diamond as many new phones are including a Facebook application. I'm sure it won't be too long though before someone ports it to the Diamond.
I really like the look of the one on the Xperia X1 too. It's about as good as the iPhone one in my opinion and its good that there are more and more Windows Mobiles appearing now. Surely that can only help increase the chances of someone creating an application that many people seem to want.
i believe one is in the works in the "hacking and development" thread already. new app though. not ported.
Ok, thanks, I shall check it out.

questions on xv6800, upgraded from cooked 6700

I put this in the general discussion area, figured i would move it to the correct forum,
I just upgraded form the xv6700 to the xv6800. I had cooked the 6700. The 6800 is stock. I have managed to get all of my apps that i want over, but am lacking 2 things. First one, on the cooked 6700, the text messages would organize themselves into conversations from people. the 6800 does not do this, it just lists them as they come in. I have tried sorting different ways, but that does not do it. I cant figure out what i used in the cooked rom to accomplish this, any ideas?
secondly, I had added the touch diamond qwerty keyboard to the 6700 through the kitchen rom i used. Is there an individual download for this? everytime i search i just get info on the touch diamond.
Thanks in advance guys.
oh, i am running windows mobile 6 professional. OS 5.2.1238 (build 17745.0.2.3)

Yes although ironically it's still in the wrong place. The Verizon 6800 is the Titan (AKA Mogul) which is not the same as the TyTn (AKA Hermes).

2 day re-direct in place.
anyone have any ideas?
WM 6.1 has threaded texting, which organizes the text messages based on conversation, so I suggest you flash 6.1.
That's my answer to your first question.
Devin
ahh, thank you, yes i did flash 6.1. i'll have to look around for that. the 6800 is working very well, and i dont want to screw with it if i dont have too, at least for a couple months anyhow!

Need to know basic about customizations

I'm about to buy an Elfin this Sunday, and after some googling, I want to clear some things up.
1. What is Manilla2D?
2. Should I install Onyx as soon as I get my phone, or should I wait?
3. What's the difference between TouchFLO2D and TouchFLO3D?
4. Is it possible to 'install' TouchFLO3D to an HTC Touch P3452?

1. What is Manilla2D?
It is a theme which comes with most WM6.1 roms, search this section to get more skins http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=260&order=desc
2. Should I install Onyx as soon as I get my phone, or should I wait?
You should read first a lot, Onyx WM 6.5 doesn't have Manilla, WM 6.1 yes,and especially how to flash in the stickies here http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=374
3. What's the difference between TouchFLO2D and TouchFLO3D?
Elfin doesn't support TouchFLO3D
4. Is it possible to 'install' TouchFLO3D to an HTC Touch P3452?
Answer above
Enjoy Your Device
Manilla2D = the Diamond Style.
3D= The Cube, 3D Touch Style.
argh double post
Manilla2D is basically a downsized version of Manilla3D.
and by the way, if you are looking for the HTC touch cube, its not longer available at any other phones, except for the touch and the dual.
More info about Manilla2D avail here
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&client=opera&rls=en&hs=Nqb&q=htc+touchflo+2d&aq=f&oq=&aqi=g:s4
@jeremy: Wait, from your link to google, I take that you mean mean Manilla2D is the same has TouchFLO2D. But tito12 says it's a 'theme'.
And does the HTC Touch P3452 have TouchFLO2D?
Manilla2D(M2D) is TouchFlo2D!
Nonono!
M2D has different themes for you to choose, and the themes is developed by our xda-developers community.
HTC Touch P3452 dafault handset does not have M2D, you have to upgrade to Windows Mobile 6.1 in order to enjoy M2D.
Here are a few pointers.
1) You choose to upgrade either to
- HTC Built ROM, which is their upgraded version
- Cooked Roms, which is made by people just like you and me, but they are usually more functional and practical. And Most people recommend cooked ROM as the HTC Built rom which is commonly known as stock roms, is underpowered and have too little applications. (And lags .. blabla )
One such cooked rom is Onyx and the one I am using.
Which can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=426540
Yeah I read about Onyx. I'll use the stock ROM for a couple of months, and then look towards Onyx.
This is what I've understood.
Elfin with WM 6.0, neither has TouchFLO2d, nor Manilla2D. If upgraded to WM 6.1, it will have Manilla2D, but it still wont have TouchFLO2D. To get TouchFLO 2D, we have to install a separate thing. And Elfin doesn't supportd TouchFlo3D.
Am I right? I'm confused because jeremy89632 says M2D has different themes available, and tito12 says M2D is a theme.
EDIT: Here, Is this the actual interface of an Elfin with WM6.1?
Hi Cyanide
I should have used "interface" instead of "theme", and this interface can be skinned, there are many on developpement and hacks section.
Okay, so Manilla2D is an interface that comes with WM6.1 for the Elfin? And,here, Is this the actual interface of an Elfin with WM6.1?
Yes, manilla2d is touchflo2d.
Okay thanks a lot for the help
This is slightly off topic, but I just want to ask all the Elfin/Elf users here, how do you guys like your phone? Would you recommend it?
EDIT: Also, I read another thread 'http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=531260' in which the guy's phone turned out to be fake. Since I'm buying a used one, what all should I check before purchasing it to ensure it's authentic HTC?
I'd just like to point out that I'm going to buy the phone tomorrow, so I need an answer for this (my last post) asap

Tips to get a legit HTC
Buy by walking in, not online.
Get from legit sellers, like big time corps.
See if the box have HTC logos and windows mobile logos around it.
Check for warrenty.
Thats all.
Im pretty happy with my elfin, except it lags GPS.
Umm, what do you mean 'lags GPS'?
HTC Touch Elfin and Elf does not have GPS.
Or known as the global positioning system which tells you where you are.
If you want to get a GPS for your elf, you must pay around SGD100 or around US$60 or even cheaper if you get from ebay.
I know it doesn't have GPS. You wrote it 'lags' GPS, so I was wondering what you meant. You probably meant it 'lacks' GPS.
Anyways thanks a lot you all, I finally bought it.
I'm avoiding making a new thread, so here goes.
How do I format the memory card? Will simply connecting the phone to the PC in data transfer mode and formatting it from there do? Or is there some special method?
Congratulations
Just insert it and start explorer to see that it is visible

HTC As Web Cam

Hi All,
I have HTC touch 2, I wann to know if I can use it as web Cam..Or there is some software which can help me to do so.
Waiting of any suggestions.
Hi Ripudaman, welcome to XDA!
First of, this forum is for the HTC touch (Elf), not the HTC Touch 2 (Mega).
But to the point, if you searched google with say... Windows Mobile as Webcam you may get some results...
I use Mobiola, it isnt freeware though.
Unless you know where to look. Can't possibly suggest anywhere though, forum rules

its plausible. but will need great amount of Dev Support.
You need to write drivers which should be compatible with Dell Hardware.
That will be the biggest challenge...after its done the hardware can handle the OS flawlessly...
I know Cotulla would be a good person to ask this.
It's been a while since last post on this thread, but I will ask again. Is there a possibility of this happening. I am a long time windows mobile user, last phone was HTC Touch Pro/Titl 2 (I have both). 6.5 was great, I wanted more speed. Got DVP, great hardware, software absolutely sucks. Need to go back to WM 6.5. Wi-Fi Sharing, Email refreshing every 15 minutes, not using acceleration and light sensors to its fullest extent, not being able to save stuff on file system, not running WM 6.5 apps, list goes on and on.
Any ideas anyone ?

hi
i have done some inquiries to this matter some time back. and it seems it is possible but difficult. nobody is interested in wm anymore, except for few guys like you and me. most of the capable devs who could make this possible are not interested in wm anymore and too busy with android and wp7. as the previous reply suggests why dont you pm cotulla? he might be able to give better advice. or the next best thing you could do is trade your DVP to a hd2, which is the best phone around running wm. but minus the keyboard. and have you tried wp7 with the mango update? doesnt it support most of previously missing functions?
I can sell DVP and probably even make money on it as I currently reside outside of the US. WP7 has taken away a lot of features. Mango was a little improvement from 7.0, but still has a long way to go. The IMAP email refresh 15 minutes is horrible, I use phone as internet connection backup, WM6.5 apps don't work, I have some of my own apps I wrote, those don't work of course. WP7 looks great and works great for a regular Joe Shmoe, but for me as a business user it doesnt cut it. It's really not worth it for me to sink in so much time into this. PM'ing the guy who knows about this won't do any good, not like he is going to sink in weeks of his time into it, you know. I will go back to my Tilt2/TP2, Titlt2 for use in Latin America, TP2 on T-Mobile while in US, Titlt2 also gets use on At&T networks in US. Probably looks like for me to get some more speed need to invest in a pair of HD2's AT&T and T-Mobile radio frequencies. They will do 2 things I'm missing now: faster browsing + ability to zoom-in using Multi-Touch. If you find out of any new phones that would make me happy (HTC HD2 + keyboard LOL) pls let me know. DVP running WM6.5 would be a damn good phone though . Thanks for input !!
ok...gud luck with your work..will let u know if i come across any news..
