dkaile 1,051 Report post Posted August 30, 2009 (edited) @ankit I was talking ONLY about speakerphone volume increase, which I feel is sufficient as it is; the cab file will only increase the phone volume safely; also there is no problem whatsoever for loading custom rom's.... Now the earlier problem I faced for unable to load hardspl .25 and .37 may be related to USB to PC connectivity; so it's safe to disable it during rom updates and hardspl's.... Go to "start" Select "settings" Go to "Connections" tab Select "USB to PC" and uncheck "Enable advanced network functionality" UPDATE- The internet is finally under my control and beck and call; it was in fact Pocket Express (after RSS Feeds, Quick GPS and Weather) which were auto updating; after having them set to manual update, things are back to normal....

Ankitman 3 Report post Posted August 31, 2009 Hi Mufaddal, The Mighty ROM says that I would have to hard reset my phone? Are you sure I don't need to do that? The download is almost complete, post which I just need to copy the file on my memory card and run it, right? Nothing else... I have to install it like an application is what I have understood! Wad is RUU? No other need to worry, right @ankit dont worry ur phone already has hardspl , just go ahead and download rom mightyrom 4 its a simple interface utility when u double click on RUU it will open up a window , just follow on screen instructions it is just a matter of 10mins 99% u wont screw ur phone coz u have hardspl enjoy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dkaile 1,051 Report post Posted August 31, 2009 @ankit there is no need to copy that file on sd card.... it will be downloaded as an exe file and you just have to run that exe and the ruu will run... hard reset is recommended to clear partition tables so that there are no small hiccups left; so I would recommend you DO hard reset; backup all your data by PIMbackup and then use it again to restore... and you are good to go in max. 1 hour... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dkaile 1,051 Report post Posted August 31, 2009 (edited) UPDATE - So its been full 24 hours since my last charge.... and the battery level is....... is........ still 60%..... Do I hear a clap roll ..... so its not that bad after all, after a full day of my normal usage of calls (I made about 20 calls today) and sms (about 20 also) and little wifi/internet use... so it should last 2 days of normal use....

I try more roms than you can possibly imagine. Let me tell you none of the 6.5 roms would be as snappy as a well cooked 6.1. I have tried energy as well. Warhawk is out these days but let me tell you nothing comes close to Mighty 4 in terms of stability and responsiveness. And not too many users of diamond are shifting to Mighty 6. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anupe 14 Report post Posted September 1, 2009 @ Dhiraj bhai: You still on the Original ROM or are you on one of the MRs? Good to hear that you've solved your battery /internet connecting issues. Too bad that wont work for me since I HAVE to keep my Data plan running 24/7 for the push mail application that I use. So I'm resigned to charging the TP every day lol Waiting on my extra battery and desktop charger now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dkaile 1,051 Report post Posted September 1, 2009 (edited) Problem: Word completion does not seem to be working even though you have set it to on by going into Start-Settings-Input-Word Completion - Ensure that Suggest words when entering text is ticked and set it to 1 or 2 letters and suggest 4 words. Now what happens even after this YOU DO NOT GET WORD COMPLETION PROMPT. What to do? Solution: Open any text based program, say e.g. Text Message - Select New Message - Now Slide your keyboard open - Press FN (Function) key and then Space (for T9) - you will get some options and maybe its set to ABC - change it to T9 English - and VOILA - your Word Completion STARTS TO WORK.... on any type of keyboard...

dkaile 1,051 Report post Posted September 1, 2009 ^ Yes, I was able to enable the caller name feature; but it was impractical as the ring stopped after 1 ring and it only vibrated and said caller name like "Call from 'Name' on Mobile Phone". So for all practical purposes it worked but since its volume was too low, I reverted back to original settings. If you want and try, here's the registry hack for the same - The problem with the call announcement on the TPdoesn't appear to be with Voice Command, but possibly with the phone softwareon the TP - since Voice Command is generating the announcement file - it's justnot being played.The following registry changes might partially restore the call announcement, ashort-term solution until something better comes along: HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\TTSAnnounce\Category: change VoiceCommand1 to Ring HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\TTSAnnounce\Script: change as5p to v0p (for vibrateand ring) or p (for ring only) With this change, the ringtone will start - and then be interrupted with thecalller ID/name announcement. (Assuming that call announcement has been enabledin Voice Command). Only major flaw with this solution is that the announcement volume is low. Sennheiser is the brand of my headphones... Ringtone volume for me is quite high; what I suggest to you - use a mp3 file which has been trimmed and its volume level slightly increased by a program like - mp3trimpro (attached) MPtrim_pro.zip mp3Trim PRO.exe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dkaile 1,051 Report post Posted September 2, 2009 ^ Yaa, thats very great news we all have heard.... but we must be realistic in our expectations ACCORDING TO INDIAN CONDITIONS.... there is no sight of even 3G here.... Data would be very hard (if not impossible) on these more and more complicated meid sets..... so for us sitting in India, Diamonds/Touch Pro's are the best bet as FULLY FUNCTIONAL PHONES for the foreseeable future.... and the price point is also FANTASTIC...
