Chinnesse HTC Touch (ELF). GSM Phone - Touch GSM General

I have a Chinnesse HTC touch, it is working very good and has windows mobile 6.1. I would like to load it a new ROM but I am not sure if I can damaged it due to it is not the original HTC.
Please help.

Just run the Elf Device Info tool found in this forum to make sure you don't have an HTC clone. If it is not a real Elf it will say "Unknown" and you will not be able to flash.

Result "Unknown"

I have used this tool and my results are "Unknown".
Is there any chance of flashing, can't I just format the phone and install all new software?

No. The hardware is completely different (at a guess, you haven't posted what it has inside, but it will more then likely be cheap parts and some marvell processor). If you did, it will probabaly brick the device, if it even found it to flash to it.
Personally, I wouldn't try, you have a clone. You have stated it works. I wouldn't want to brick my phone if it was a clone just to try a new rom. Again, this just highlights the point to not be swayed by cheap clones, they're just not as fun to tinker with!

I just pulled phone apart using this forum HTTPforum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=407323
The processor is a OMAP 850AZVL

That guide is for the HTC Elf(in), not the ELF Clone, you even say in your signature yours is an Elf, not a clone? You're also not the OP, can you confirm if yours is the same as the OP, or you actually have a HTC Elfin?
I think we all know that the HTC Elf(in) is an TI OMAP 850 201Mhz.?
I don't mean to sound mean, I am more confused...
I'm not saying that guide doesn't help with a clone - I don't have one...
(I have also realised you highjacked this guys thread knowing yours is an ELF when this is in reference to a clone for a start...)

what's the model ID of HTC P4351 (HTC Atlas) ?

From WiKi:-
The HTC Atlas is a variation of the HTC Herald sold under T-Mobile as the Wing and under HTC as the HTC P4351.The only differences between the Atlas and the Herald are the external casing and the keyboard layout. ROMs for both devices are interchangeable with the only problem being the keyboard layout of special characters.

The Model ID of HTC Herald (P4350) is HERA100
The Project CodeName of HTC Herald (P4350): HTC Herald 100
can anyone tell me
what's the model ID of HTC P4351 (HTC Atlas) ?
Thanks.
Many People Are Using A Wing, But No One Would Like To Tell Me What The Model Id Of The Model.
Why?
I don't remember what it said when it was stock out of the box .. but if I remember correctly, its the same id.
I believe its still HERA100
Might be wrong though
It's very easy to know the model id if you have a WING on hand :-
- just take out the battery from the unit then you will find the id number.
hope some one can help.
thanks.

How about the Leo's compass and graphic performence ?

In the HTC official Leo Spec, it has digital compass. Does Leo's compass work as the same as Iphone 3GS(not using gps)?
I am using touch hd, and I enjoy NeoS2007 Pack3. Is the HTC Leo's graphic driver best enough for the graphic performence?
yes and about the graphic performence: it's definetely better than on the HD.
Yeah well. But will HTC pull another qualcolm on us and make the HD2 a device without full drivers?

If you can't read it for some reason, send me your email and I will send you a pdf of the article. I would post it on the site, but due to copy right issues, I wont'.

Depends on what you mean by "full drivers". It's already a known fact that the HD2 has hardware-accelerated OpenGL ES 1.1. What's not known is whether it has video decode acceleration or not - but from what I've seen I'd say not. Apparently the Toshiba TG01 does, though. Although TBH, it might not matter all that much considering how fast Snapdragon is anyway.
maybe the official Leo Roms can show the details
In Htcpedia, the official multiple languages can be downloaded from the link:
http://htcpedia.com/news/official-htc-hd2-wm6_5-rom.html
Maybe some experts can tell us the details in the ROMs, and show his/her evaluation.

Yeah, but to fork out a huge amount of money, I'd rather that the full hardware capabilities are being made use of. I don't want the HD2 to be like my HD. A device with huge potential but locked.

You likely have a clone. Should be a 3.2mp camera too.
There is a thread for flashing clones, just search the forum.
(US phones do not have front cameras but are 512mb/256mb)

no, your phone is NOT real HTC. it is FAKE. you will not be able to install ANY Diamond 2 ROM. sorry.
the thread you should look for for the FAKE diamond 2 has tags with the T5355 i think. the ORIGINAL Topaz is T5353.
you bought a crap copy. sorry.

Windows Phone 7 for HD mini

Any method can install WP7 for HTC HD mini?
Thanks!
Here's the ROM.
http://rs561.rapidshare.com/files/387471275/Mondimg_WP7.rar
I haven't tested it myself as my Photon has not arrived yet, so you may need to make some adjustments, but generally it should work. At least, it works on HTC Mondrian.
is this workin' on hd mini?
at least WM7S requires ARMV7 processor, while MSM7227 is ARMV6.

Did this work?
I dont really think mounting WM7 on a mobile made for WM6, as we all know windows is kind of OS which demands more memory and lot of hardware features for its newer versions, though HTC got 600MHZ processor i think it is suitable for WM6. I was really thrilled ot get a windows mobile before i bought my HD mini, however now i regeret for not going with Android! atleast for the apps that doesnot support windows like google mobile navigation i should have gone with Android! anyway i still love my mini

I really don't believe that it works. But I'm also curious, whether he enabled windows phone 7 on the HD mini. That would be very interesting.

no as the CPU supported by WMP7 is a Snapdragon .. which is NOT present in HD Mini, thus no WinMo7 foo ya
impossible
its not working............
this seems impossible and crazy!first,hd mini's hardware is not fit wp7;second,here is too little devs work on mini!

Telus screen?!

I have a telus htc vogue with a broken screen, anyone know where I might find one? Out of pure boredom i would like to get it working.
Unfortunately they don't seem to have parts lying around for this device these days. A peek through craigslist showed that there are used htc touch's out there anywhere from $40-100 depending on the condition. Because the screen is one of those unwarrantied things that likely are expensive to repair/replace, I'm guessing it's almost better to replace?

Hey jamezelle,
I have a Vogue with a broken power button (in the main board) laying around. If you just need the screen, I can sell it to you for like $10 + shipping. The device works great otherwise, I just haven't got the time to fix this thing...

Verizon branded, but the device should be the same, right? I don't believe that the different branding calls for different screens... (could be wrong on this one).

Drivers are different, it seems...
Really?? Im planning on buying one, and as far as I can tell, they're the same . Never listed any specific requirements to use it. Maybe one of the drivers work better then the other, but the screen is still the same...

there are three different screen manufactures for the vogue screen meaning different drivers. i don't remember the manufacturers names off hand, but i know dzo's android kernel auto detects which screen you have and then uses the appropriate driver.
