This covers the HTC5800, yeah? - HTC Libra

What can I do with this phone other then what it does out of the box?
Theres so little information and work I can find on it.

hey buddy,
there isnt alot of things that can be done with the phone right now.. which company do u have it from?
the first would be App Unlock your phone to be able to install applications .. jsut search on google "app unlock S620" and follow that procedure...
I have a wm6.0 running so i have a couple of skins and stuff installed... most of the stuff that can work on the Vox Forums can work on libra as well. besides the roms ofcourse.
if you got any other questions holla for sure... i know it was a pain for me to find any information on the phone!

surprised me too! the poor phone still doesn't have enough ram and is missing wifi, otherwise it would be perfect.

I just picked up one of these phones yesterday and am still getting used to not having a touch screen. If I'm not mistaken this phone does have the GPS. What's the process for getting it to work with Google Maps, etc?
Thanks

no this phone doesnt have gps....
it has the processor which is needed to have gps... but apparently it doesnt work with any company...
iv looked around for a fix .. but no one has found out one...
and 5800 doesnt have wifi built in either

AGPS vs Libra/s720
Sorry to contradict you, but hie phone has AGPS and it does work (I have it working right now)
To be sure we are talking of the s720/LIBRA 100.
Refer to this post and you will get all you need.

Stock Exchange app to HTC Touch Diamond

Hello!
Anyone know if there is a Stock exchange application on the Touch Diamond?
Just like the one in the IPhone.

Im getting used to that response. Theres simply nothing new these days that works WITH the Diamonds VGA screen rather than against it.

Okay so whats the solution for the stock exchange app then? There isnt one.
There are no damn apps being developed anymore for WM especially on high end VGA devices.
I too would like a decent stock exch app.. if im moaning over nothing, point me in the right direction and i'd gladly shut up
Well it wasn't a good app.I better just wait for a better app to come a long.

I can only see about 1/2 of the cells vertically. I guess it only works if you reduce your text size in windows... but then the phone itsn't finger friendly anymore.
yes,i also have that problem.
Try this:
http://www.pocketx.net/products/pocketstockmonitor_ppc/index.html
I used on my Kaiser and use in my Diamond...
Works perfect.
It has only one issue...
SOmetimes, when you starts the program, there is a fade on the screen... But you have only to press the power button twice and the programs goes well...
Would be great if HTC Home has a tab for stock exchange and share price update. HTC did it for weather, why stop there. Stock price should be next.
Yes,i agree. Hopfully a application that will work perfectly with the TouchFLO 3D.
Stock App Think Anywhare
I use Think Anywhere from Think Or Swim, its pretty cool, but is more than just quotes, Its a whole trading platform. Need subscription, but no deposit requiredment. You can do Paper trading with it.

It's on a stickie at the top
Reports are that it only really works reasonably well if it is cooked into a rom. Try L26 or Anril´s roms that are in the ROMs section.
If you use the former you´ll need to install an excellent little tool by JeckyllHyde called TF3D Standby, which will ensure your phone can enter standby (the drivers needed for TF3D to work prevents this).

Heh heh, that's my video. balleklorin75 is correct, however I am using MBarvian's Solace ROM and have TF3D installed on it. I do use TF3D Standby, as well. Otherwise the phone goes batty when you try and put it into standby.

It's a bit laggy. That said, if we could get around the standby issue I'd use it as my default interface. I don't because it's so annoying to have to turn it off and on along with the phone, everytime.

You're probably better off going that route, as Manila 2D is much faster and easier to manipulate, just not as flashy.
TF3D was never really ready for prime time, it was just fun to fiddle with; but if you want, I'll find the cabs that you'd need for it. It is fun to turn off M2D and fire up TF3D every now and again just to show it off to someone, but it can't be reliably used as an everyday interface.

Check out this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=337898 for software recommendations from other XDA members, however it depends on how you use your phone...gamming, business, video, music etc.......Also like dzelaya18 said in the post above yours, touchflo 3d is still being developed (i think) and requires a reset several times a day and is still very laggy...I would reframe from using it and go with Touchflo2....it is very nice and is included on almost every Rom in the Rom section...go there..I use Hyperdragon and PDA, both are good....
@dzelaya18 see what you started with your youtube video...ur famous...LOL...
Touch flo 3d for tilt
hope fully you should get it here http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Kaiser..........................
I was running the L26 ROM (which has touchflo3d built in) and I think that its good enough to use on a daily basis. Just so long as you remap the ptt button to toggle manilla on or off. I wouldn't use touchflo3D as a cab because I think that is too slow for everyday use. Well anyways if you wana try the ROM out for yourself its right here- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=436446

Camera is only Black

I changed to WM 6.5 last night. I had the AT&T 6.1 rom before.
With both ROMs, my camera is just black. Doesn't show anything at all (not even darkly.
Any ideas? It's probably not software if it doesn't change when I update the ROM right?
I don't care for 6.5 much, so I'm going to try another 6.1 rom in a minute...
Thanks
Your radio ROM is incorrect for whatever hardware/ROM revision you are using. Experiment around with different radios until you get one that allows your camera to work.
Nice of you to search for the oldest problem out there.

Thanks for the advice. I'll just assume in the future that if I search and find nothing, that I must have used the wrong terms, and shouldn't bother asking in the future. Glad you saved me.
I did search. Now, when I searched "radio rom camera problem" (after the 1st response) I got tons of hits. When I searched "8925 camera is black only" I got nothing relevant. It's new to me.
Well, oddly enough, I encountered a much more serious problem with the ROM I was using, so I went back to 6.1 (I don't like 6.5 for some reason)
After loading the AT&T 6.1 rom, the camera works...
Thats because the ATT ROM has an included radio, which evidentally is one that works with your hardware revision and enables the camera.

Ok- So Radio rom can be flashed with or without the OS rom? Good to know.
The radio rom has to match the hardware? Or the OS?
I'd like to give the WM6.5 rom another try, if I can get everything to work

A couple years late to the Kaiser party, but I still love my Kaiser and it my not be as flashy and my be a tick slower and may not have the spacious screen that the HD2 has, but with a custom rom and a little tweaking, it does everything An HD2 does, and I love my keyboard.
Windows Mobile isn't dead, it was just taking a long vacation while Steve and Bill and the others were playing the " fat cat " billionaire roles to the hilt while the company went down the toilet.
Hopefully Windows Phone 7 series is the start of a resurgence that will integrate Windows, Windows Mobile, Zune OS and XBox into a fully integrated powerhouse, before it is too late.
Maybe Apple overtaking them is exactly what they need.

It was also on the rom flashing tutorial
7. After I flash a Rom I dont have any sound in calls and the camera is black
The Radio has to match the version of Rom you flash i.e. WM6.1, an incorrect Radio will give sound and camera problems. Read The Ultimate Radio Thread to find a Radio that matches the Rom there are lots to try on there if one doesnt work then try another.

Currently no, I sent an email to wifirouter which made the great app for our HD2's and the only reply they gave me was no so good, and that for how they see the OS now, it doesnt allow for it.
Lets hope Windows fixes that. Cause we need that. I really really need that.

Man, I'm right there with you. Same thing. Microsoft took a step backwards. Disappointment. I have to keep switching SIM cards to my AT&T tilt to tether. Serious BS.
all these answers have really really pushed me back, not buying until MS fixes all or most of the common things, tether, bluetooth atleast
I just got HD7 from ebay and got in love with it and the WP7 system in one hour time. But last and most important thing for me that I checked was usb tethering.

have to agree with dragoon there, just starting out go with CM 7.0.3 or 7.1.0. easy to flash ,theme and tweek. good for a starter.
Well Ive had a rooted phone before. This is actually a down grade from what I had which was the MyTouch 4G. I used CM7 on that and loved it so I might have to give it a shot.
