The LED above the screen - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Hi, all.
First of all i would like to thank all of the people who offer their experience in this web site and help others to solve "strange " problems.
I am a user of an HTC Artemis and recently (before a few days) i bought an HTC Diamond from T-Mobile (MDA Compact iV). I dont know if what im experiencing is really a problem but i thought to give a try and ask.
So the LED above Diamond's screen is not flashing or lighting at any time. Neither when the sim card is in and phone operating nor when it is getting charged.
This is strange to me, since in the Artemis the LED above the screen is flashing when the phoneis operational and permanently on (orange) when it is getting charged either from pc or from a socket.
Anyone has an idea??
Thank you very much for your help and consideration.
Much appreciated.

Its not an LED, its the light sensor.

Thanks
Ohh stupid me. Thanks a lot mate. And i started wondering.
Once again thanks a lot.

friendly advice: read the manual.

I don't remember this as mentioned in the manual - at least not where it described the parts on the phone exterior - though it may be there elsewhere though where I might have missed it.
It was here at xda developers that I got to know about the "LED" being a light sensor

Call voice quality issues.

I have had a lot of people complain to me in last 2 days (since I got the phone) that my voice to them sounds messed up, as if there's some disturbance.
I'm a religious blackberry user, and switched form 8320 (curve) to this one. The speaker quality extrememly sucks.
Is there a patch or an update or something I could use to enhance mic / speaker quality?
Thank you
I am having this same issue...and not all calls are this way. I've tried Mic boost/auto-adjust, but with no impact. I'm hoping a cure is found or I'll be ditching this phone and moving on.....I work on my cell and can't have these sorts of quality issues.

Same here!
I thought the device was bad and had it replaced, but the new one has exactly the same issue. I've been able to make some clear sounding calls, so I'm not sure if its actually a hardware/mic problem, of some kind of disturbance caused by the software processing.
Yes.. I've picked up my diamond yesterday.. and same problem here.. friends describe my voice as somewhat robotic.. not exactly what I expect from a 600 euro phone...
could be a problem with your band.
try calling through gsm only.
How do I do that ?
I'm a newbie on this area (my last phone was actually a nokia 6230...)
please anyone???
i really can't use the phone right now.. and I need it for work..
That's a lot of people with a serious problem. Does anyone not have this problem?
Should be in network settings otherwise have a look through the manual??. Im sure it would be in the manual somewhere.
very serious indeed.. can't find it in my manual.. but im not really an advanced user (yet) so that's my bad i guess..
fact is this phone shouldn't have this problem ofc
Yes, I don't have any problem.
Same problem here, people commenting that it sounds broken up, or through water sometimes.
This is a serious problem, surely testing would have found an issue like this, or am I being a it wishful that this handset was actually tested before launch!!
M.
no problem at all. very good sound quality!
i wonder what ppl are going to complain about next? judging from the posts here i must have the one, the only the greatest htc diamond produced.
i do have a few complains but not even 10% of what i am reading here
damn!at least the color you like? maybe the black is not black enough
Are you getting bad voice quality while using a headset as well or just when using the the handsets microphone?
Also maybe watch where you're fingers are placed, if I'm not mistaken the microphone is under the phone, next to the usb port... so no fingers there while talking

Dude, this isn't whining...its just not working the way it should! Plain and simple. My old QTEK and HTC's all have cristal clear sound compared to this.
Maybe its the localized ROM or something...
Just because you don't experience the same issue doesn't mean everybody else is wrong.

Dude, more people will read that this is a common problem on Diamond...
I'd never buy a 600 euros device knowing an issue like this....

Am I the only one?????????????

I am seeing that I am the only one posting in this forum. Nobody else is having touch viva or they don't have problem with the device?
What is the reason?
No
no, you are wrong i've touch viva and i haven't problems because i'm very very precise with all the installation and softwares...firstly i've installed only the necessary app, and i've inserted inside a MicroSD of 2GB, where i've collocated all of applications..secondly i think that is a very good telephone because it replaces the old HTC Touch...for 260€ is the best price for a PDA..infact this telephone have a lot of connection and i think that is better than the other HTC (i.e. HTC Jade or diamond) for some reasons: the long life of battery, the measures, and also the price, as I have already said, is very very convenient Which are your ideas?
so...W HTC TOUCH VIVA
p.s:
I'm always here, so you can write and i'll try to responde you in the best of the ways

Thanks devipera64 for your response.
I am happy with the device. It worths the price. Only some minor problems.
Will you please answer my other post about keyboard problem if you have any knowledge?
Thanks again.
Don't worry..if you would, you can write also me in PW..i've saw that the people likes a lot the Diamond's devices..i think that 500€ for a PDA, that isn't indestructible, isn't a good chosen, above all for the pockets of the customers So a PDA like ours, is the top for the level quality/price
ya thats right. i am also happy with my htc viva. i am a new user and been a long fan of Symbian. hope to find this win mobile comparable enough.

Thanks for the suggestion. Actually, I just want the clock off, the article you are referring to gives you a digital clock with the user interface changed.
I love the Manila 2d user interface "minus" the huge arm clock in between. Any idea how to remove just that clock and reatain the rest..
Please suggest..

1. There are no differences in speed in regards to color.
2. I haven't used the Pure Rom.
3. The sliding mechanism is the best I have ever seen, felt, and used.
4. The Loud Speaker Volume is not loud enough in public places of with the television on. Not suggested for music playback.
No, I have not faced these problems on my X1
Yes, the phone is extremely slow for a Windows Mobile device.
Also, there are more problems that you should be aware of. After a long span of use, the device will show cracks and lose it's paint. Second, the keyboard will lose it's sensitivity within 2 years (phones are suppose to maintain a functional keyboard forever).

Thirded. Ultimately the only major problem I haven't been able to solve either through Sony repair or tweaking is the sluggishness of the phone. I would say that I now have a phone that does nearly everything I want, but it's fairly slow. I also wish the camera and video recording were better, but they are better than what you might expect on a WM phone, I guess.
ps welcome back Orelsi. Where the hell you been???

Thanks lol .
I got a new job and did a couple of months of post graduation studies abroad before that.... I didn't have time for anything personal .
I will stay permanently now (unless something else pops up), but probably won't have that much time to post....

I second that emotion. Although sometimes excessive I always appreciated the harsh smackdown orelsi would bring to the iPhone trolls that would come here (no offense to rational iPhone owners). It seems they have left us alone now. Perhaps they have gone to Leo forums?
Anyway good to have you back

I'm going to re-post my response from another query...
You need to be asking yourself 'has anything changed recently'
- is it a Stock ROM or Custom/Cooked ROM?
- is the Kernel Stock or again flashed?
- any new apps recently installed?
- any tweaks of enhancements (flashed or apps)?
As a proving ground you can restore and start from scratch to see if this resolves, failing that post up a reply with as much relevant info as possible,, makes it easier and faster to help you!

There is potential for it to be a faulty device but you need to supply more information in regards to this..

[Q] Screen problems

Hello everyone.
I have an S3 mini and screen has been changed under warranty. The screen started to not respond to touch and only restarting the phone to get it working again.
But the screen is already with the same problem and this time is even worse. The problem remains on screens or it can be a problem on board or something like that?
Does anyone has this problem?
Thanks in advance.
