Hi
I just got my first htc phone today the touch diamond it all seems very nice so far im sure i'll figure it all out soon i tried out the wi-fi but now not sure how to turn it off, it keeps popping up with new notifications of the connections available could anyone advise how to turn it off, many thanks
another question as well the 3g sign at the top just means its available doesnt it? i browsed the web briefly to see what it was like i dont want to be charged for on the net as my unlimited web browsing doesnt start for a couple of weeks, i guess when you exit the page your exited out of the internet, is that correct? many thanks
best to have a good play around with the device to learn all of what she has to offer tap start, settings connections tab then wifi then menu "turn off wifi" - press and hold the hang up button you will be provided with the option "terminate data connection".
have a look in the diamond thread lots to read and learn also check out the wiki also
hope this helps
I have been using this phone over a year now, and I have re flashed it at least 10 times, every time to get a taste of a new rom for this phone(currently running 6.5.3), although this phone is cool, but gets sluggish, some time, though I managed to tweak it to work fast, which I will be discussing in later threads, in this thread I am going to answer a simple problem, where the users are unable to use GPS with Google maps to get exact pin-point directions. I found a flaw in the settings, and this generated either "GPS signal too weak" or did not get the right lock. After this setting, you will gain a lock on the satellites almost instantaneously, when you're under the open sky.
SO HERE IS THE TWEAK:
START GOOGLE MAPS APPLICATION.
GO TO MENU (RIGHT SOFT KEY)
ENTER SETTINGS
SELECT "GPS SETTINGS..."
NOW HERE BY DEFAULT IT SAYS "MANAGED BY WINDOWS" CHANGE THIS TO "SET MANUALLY"
SET COM PORT TO "COM3:" AND BAUD RATE TO "9600"
SELECT OKAY, CLICK ON "USE GPS" (SO THAT THE TICK BECOMES GREEN.)
RESTART GOOGLE MAPS, ENJOY.
Google knows everything even on the roads, even in cities like New Delhi, which are densely populated, there was ever this incidence that this device and this awesome technology failed me, it is great to have such tool in your pocket.
PM me for any other queries for this phone.
Cheers
can install any other os on it ?

Hi , tried searching ththis problem without success.
Have 3.1 wifi USA brd updated method
With either the search from home screen or within browser search via address bar it stalls and does not search google, but if I go to Google.com then it immediately searches as expected.
Any advice appreciated
I was Rom shopping and noticed my browser stopped working. I am currently running Blackhole 2.0 but have this problem with any rom I run or if I just go back to he original back up of root. I am using the MR 2 radio and everything is working great.
So I get 4g (LTE) speeds with the hotspot, I can access facebook and pop3 mail, so I know the internet is working
Whenever I use the search or go directly to the browser it won't load a page. The green status bar starts to fill in but just stops and hangs. Sometimes but very rarely if i go to book marks it will load a page but it's super slow and completly un usable.
When I install my roms I do a full wipe
My speed test (Via hotspot) is 19.11Mbps

this is not a development post and belongs in the Q&A section.
However there have been several posts about problems with verizon's DNS servers over the last couple of days. download dns fix from the market and change your DNS to google.
Running rooted stock. Every time I go into Gtalk, I find I'm signed out and when I sign back in, I always get a bunch of new emails. I love the CM/AOSP signal bars that turn blue when connected to google services, but on Stock, I have no way to know I'm not. Anyone find a way to prioritize the google connection in the stock memory management?
