anyway, contact is always managed my micrsoft office outlook. all my windows mobile contact is stored and sync all the time with outlook. u can use myphoneexplorer to extract out all the previous contact from SE/Nokia/ other phone via bluetooth. then extract da whole phonebook and import into outlook. then sync contact with outlook and Diamond2 via activesync or so called Windows Mobile Device Centre in Vista.

hope it helps.

RADIO in the ROM version means the phone radio, ie. GSM, WiFi, etc. etc. not the radio radio.

To turn off 3G (remember to turn it back on when you need fast data)

From Touch Flo Home Screen
Settings Tab -> All Settings -> Personal Tab -> Phone -> Band Tab -> Select Your Network Type -> GSM

By default it'll see auto, if you want to stop your phone from dropping to GSM when 3G is weak select WCDMA, this is NOT recommended for voice calls when you're in a weak 3G area, calls just keeps dropping, cuts off, etc. etc.
*
im using TF3D 2 for my xperia too.. for me to turn off 3G and keep constantly in EDGE/GPRS.. i go to settings tab in TF3D, then click communication. then there is 8 options and i choose off for 3G.

in my communication manager got these:
airplane mode
phone
bluetooth
wifi
microsoft direct push
data connection
3G
internet sharing

i think it would be the same in diamond 2 too..


Added on May 20, 2009, 10:05 amoh yeah.. forget to mention that.. to go to "phone" settings.. there is a shortcut.

go to phone dialer mode (either using "pick up" phone hardware button or press "phone in TF3D home screen"
then click "menu" n "options".

i'm a complete noob in this pocket pc thingy, TD2 is my first pocket PC, today i just upgraded to the new ROM, no much changes that i can see, anyway, after i upgrade the new ROM, all my settings and data gone, is this normal? or i have done something wrong?

now have to set all my stuff back sad.gif
*
as far as i know.. the new rom only contain new RAdio but with da exactly same rom. so u wont see anything different except mayb better phone reception or something related to radio.

besides, flashing rom will always clear all ur data.. so do remember to backup next time b4 u flash or upgrade rom..

Regarding to the backup, I know we can backup our contacts/Calender/Task/Messages...

but how do we backup our application installed?
*
application installed cannot be backup.. must be install everytime u flash ur rom..

u can keep all the .cab files inside ur microsd and use express setup from xda-developers.. tick all the cab files. then express setup will one shot install all the .cab file for u.

besides, u can backup the whole program files but it doesnt work. different rom nid different configuration that y even if u backup application, it wont work on another rom.

it only work when u r currently at "HOME" tab.. if u are on other tab, then it will move bak to previous tab left or right.

but it do nice when nid to move to "settings" tab right from "home" tab..

hi guys, i have coreplayer in my TD2, but i cant link it to open from start->all program list inside the phone, i can only open it by going to the storage card and open the coreplayer.exe file. this is very tedious everytime i open a video. and by default it use window media player which cant play most of the file.
anyone can advice? thanks alot
*
hmm yeah.. windowsmobile is a fully customizable platform..

use resco file explorer or totalcommander.. browse to /windows/start menu/programs/

then find for coreplayer.ink or coreplayer if extension diden show. then press n hold da icon, click properties.

there is 2 tab, click to "shortcut" tab and click da "..." then point to correct coreplayer.exe file.

coreplayer.exe should b in /program files/coreplayer/coreplayer.exe

give it a try then see how.. u should now able to launch coreplayer from all programs.

besides, to use coreplayer as default player. u nid to run coreplayer and inside options ther use da "file association" and tick those format u wan to use coreplayer as default player.


Added on May 26, 2009, 10:34 pmn yeah, forget to mention that, the above way is from resco files explorer. totalcommander should be the same thing..


Added on May 26, 2009, 10:35 pmupdates: total commander hav exactly the same procedure too...

Hi rkwan67, I just did the steps as mentioned by you. After un-checking TF3D, the screen just went grey blank save for the heading. Is this what one will get after un-checking the TF3D? rclxub.gif  rclxub.gif  rclxub.gif

haha... yeah. since u disable tf3d but enable default wm today application it will show grey background if no wallpaper assign.

u can tick some other thing other than tf3d. then u will see sone default wm plugin.

all sounds and notifications can be changed at Start > Settings , Sounds and Notifications. Ringtones must be placed at either root of storage card, My Ringtones folder in My Documents, or /windows.

wav files MUST be in /windows or storage card i think


Added on May 29, 2009, 12:04 am

check your box CDs for CE STAR
*
n yeah, some research statistic. do u all notice that most pda is always using default ringtone and default sms ringtone? i really notice that really a lot of pda user using default 1. so to spot pda really really easy especially pda standard default ringtone only 3 if HTC ringtone is not installed by default.

anyway, to input chinese, CE-star is da best for me. n i forget HTC included it for u all...lols.. i nid to use *ahem version..

1. Apologise for the CAPS.

2. I think you are more rude with your exclamations.

3. I see that you have alot to contribute to this thread, BUT, What right have you got to say what i have posted is not relevant, and that i should leave this thread ALONE ? I think what i have posted has some form of contribution in any case (have a critical read).
Come on, rich guy or not, thats not the issue here. There is a problem with the new phone and i'm merely waiting to see if it has been resolved (nothing wrong).

Please dont waste space by replying to this . . .
*
definitely will accept ur apologies generously. i dont feel like rude when facing with rude thou.

BTW, juz now you said i dont have contribution at all are you? why change then? that mean u always notice i do contribute here right?

i diden say what u post not relevant. but juz respect our thread that we are all member and thread is for discussion and not for asking question and feel like everyone must answer u. we are discuss about the question and of cause hope it would be solve soon.

i ask u to leave this thread alone diden mean u post something revelent. what i mean was, since u so urgent (judge from ur caps lock at that time, not now), why dont u juz straight away go for touch HD but consider touch diamond 2?

haha, i diden notice any contribution u have at here at all thou. this question asked so many times. cant u read back the older post and see any answer? ask the same question again summore... that y i say u like very urgent, diden read post earlier but ask same question again.

ok anyway. our argument end like u said "Please dont waste space by replying to this . . .". if u want, juz shoot me at my thread better. i feel sorry that invasion touch diamond 2 thread by arguing. i came in here juz wanted to help new Windows Mobile user that in fact xperia and touch diamond got da exactly the same software. so anything i know i would share.

then i take bak my word of "rich" then.

Morning rkwan67,

Yea I went back to check tf3d again since I don't like the grey screen. Taking up your suggestion to tick some other stuff, can you offer some suggestions? This is an exciting learning experience for me as a 1st user of Windows Mobile. BTW, can I make a GIF image [in the attachment] which I downloaded into a wall for my Diamond? If yes, mind teaching me the steps to go about doing this? Much appreciate ur assistance.
hi morning bro...

after some testing on my xperia and what i know is wallpaper could be any picture. but it will juz stay stationery and movement of gif is stopped.

u could possibly put it as wallpaper in TF3D or wm today screen which this 2 is different settings. WM today wallpaper will replace the "grey" wallpaper u mean when u disable TF3D.

while TF3D wallpaper will only show on TF3D "home" tab only.

to set it: follow this:
TF3D wallaper
scroll to settings tab
tap on wallpaper then browse to ur folder by tap on "right soft key" named "ALBUM"
then click on ur photo.

it should now show on HOME tab of TF3D

WM today (take note that this will only show if u disable TF3D
1) scroll to settings tab if u have TF3D enable. and All Settings
if not enable, then click start -> settings
2) then go to personal tab n "today"
3) tick "use this picture as background" then click browse to select or photo.

alternatively : (for wm today only)
click all program
then find for "pictures & Videos"... not Album.
use it to browse to ur photo. then tap & hold until right context menu comes out.
then tap "set as today background"

so, in anyway also u will only get stationary .gif files but not da nice nice u can see in desktop. u can see it moving while using HTC Album or Picture & video only. but not as wallpaper..

since wm is quite customizable os, let see anyone could make it moving..haha


Added on May 29, 2009, 9:13 amoh yeah, forget to mention that... wm today plugin most of the time is came bundled with software.

like mapking, cash organizer, battery status (changed name i think), spb backup, spb insight ..

quite a name of software that allow plugin to be installed on wm today screen. juz too bad that HTC 's TF3D already take up all available space for normal today plugin.

but as i said, since wm is quite customizable platform. member from xda-developers able to hack TF3D "people" tab and changed it to display normal wm today plugin.

after some testing, i found it is not stable at all so i doesnt recommend to u all.

hope u all enjoy a nice OS around for phone.
