I recently bought a used XDA II. I cannot find the camera nor the album software on it and the button on the right does not work. I am reluctant to do a hard reset as I think that the rom has been updated to the latest version (including the lansacape setting) and eveything works beautifully otherwise and i really do not want to upset this....
Does anyone know of a way to download camera and album ?
I think those guy that used b4 jus downgrade from Wm5 .....
can anyone help me ?
cant believe this got no answer.....
check your settings, the button may simply have been de-activated to stop accidental starting.
the rest will be in there, use file explorer to check.
otherwise you need to flash an extented rom on the device
it should give you the cam software and the likes

I just tried flashing the CT beta 4 full version rom on my device.. The flash went perfectly fine.. But after that when the device is booting up for the first time.. It gets stuck at the cuztomization screen !!!.. Specifically while loading the oper application files.. So i removed the battery and restarted the device... It turns out that everythin is fine.. JUST THE OPERA AND TF3D applications are missing from the device !!!... Any body got any suggestions or ideas... to get it sorted out ?!?!... please help !!!
Okhay the same thing happened with the following roms
1) tlr-diamond-3.08.07.16
2) OFFICIAL Hong kong 1.93.831.1 WWE ROM
3) OFFICIAL UK 1.93 ROM
Cookers please note !!!
You have to wait. It DOES take some time, since it's installing Opera.
It SHOULD finish AT MOST after 5-10 minutes.

Try removing the opera from customization altogether.

Be sure to PM the author of the "problematic" ROM so he can fix the problem.
If it's the CT ROM, check if this problem happens with the newer version too.

Ok, I got the exact same problem with my Diamond. It freezes on the first boot up specifically on the Opera files. I have waited for about 1 hour and nothing...
Did anyone else try this modified ROM and was successfull at it? Dpakrawal is yours still working just fine? Any complaints about it?
Thanks a lot for the help guys.

Yes it is working absolutely fine.. Are you havin troubles with this ROM (the one i posted above) ??.. or are you having trouble with the other stock roms ?!?!
First of all, thanks a lot for replying so quickly!!
As you can imagine, its killing me having this amazing phone in my hands and not being able to use it! :-(
Your ROM is fine, I tested it yesterday and it works. It went past the Opera issue and the installation and customization were ok.
The problem is: It doesn´t work for me. I am in Brazil and I need a ROM that turns my phone into Quadband and lets it have the 850mHZ band too.
Anyone have any idea where I can find a ROM like that? I know that the original 1.93 HK ROM has Brazil on the list. After the freezing on Opera, I would reset the Phone and it would get to windows (no 3D Touch though). In there, I could go into connection options and see both the 850mHZ band and the settings for all the phone operators in Brazil: Claro, TIM, Oi, Vivo (Vivo is the one I use, and apparently the only one this phone has issues with on the original ROM).
Is it possible to re-cook the ROM you posted with the settings for Brazil?
Thanks a lot Dpakrawal. You´ve been an amazing help.

My pleasure dude.. It is actually not that big of a deal.. Just been learnin new things and been tryin to use it..
Anyways.. Re-cooking the modified rom for brazil settings huh !!
Well honestly i really dont know how to do it.. So dont think that would be possible.. But dont worry.. I could probably fix the OPERA issue with some other 1.93 base rom which holds good for brazil.. As you've said, the HK ROM has the brazil settings.. I shall fix the issue in that and hopefully that solves your problem !!
Give me like a day or two.. shall post it up for you asap.. And as a special treat.. Shall add any apps you would like to come with the cooked ROM.. :-D..
(Will be adding the CALL HISTORY TAB.. Lemme me knw if there is anythin else you would like to be added.. if you could post the link to download those apps.. It would make it a lil easier for me..)
Dude, I don't even know how to thank you enough.
If you can fix the issue with the Customization on the HK ROM, my guess is it would work just fine.
As for the addons, I don´t know that many of them. Can you name a couple that you think might be cool to have and I´ll take a look into them and tell which ones I like? I hope its not too much trouble, if it is, don´t worry about it, I can get the programs later.
If you have any trouble getting any of them into the ROM, don't worry about it. I can always get them later on, download and install them into my Diamond right?
Thanks a lot again!
Change of events.
I just found out that my Diamond is the Indian Edge DIAM140 version.
I have no idea if that makes any difference regarding the ROM or not.
I hear that the DIAM140 version is 2G only. Doesn´t support 3G.
Do you think this might be why it hasn´t been working?
I'm getting worried... :-(
Thanks a lot for the help!
Found this on Orange UK website. Enjoy

thanks man any info about the orange tf3d with analogue clock on this rom?
This is out of box from HTC . No orange customisation. I believe this will allow Orange customers to upgrade without the HardSPL stuff
Nice find. Do you have the URL where you found the link?

What are the benefits of this software update for my phone?
The software upgrade for your HTC Touch Diamond improves performance, stability and battery life.
How do I download the latest software update?
Before you upgrade to the latest version of ROM software, please ensure that:
you have backed up all of your personal data
while performing the ROM Update, all of your data and settings will be erased from your phone. It is necessary to back up all of your personal data (contacts, appointments, tasks) using Active Sync.
it is suggested that you save content such as music, ringtones, pictures onto you laptop or memory card.
your PC is running Windows® 98, 2000, XP or vista. Your battery has 50% or more charge.
Note: be aware that you cannot use your phone during the installation and you will not be connected to the network.
You will need to reconfigure your E mail settings once updated.
Windows installation instructions:
connect the device to your PC using your USB cable. An activesync pop up should indicate that you are connected. Do not remove this cable during the installation process.
click on the ROM link below and choose to save the file to your PC
Once download is complete double-click the file and follow all instructions in the installation wizard that will appear on screen. If the current and new ROM are the same version you can still re-install, this can often cures problems.
you can save the ROM to a file on your PC for reinstalling later or to upgrade several phones from one download.
once the installation begins you will see the install shield and integrity testing complete before the upgrade starts
when the ROM upgrade begins your phone will display a red,
green and blue (bootloader) screen, a progression bar will appear on
your PC and the phone will show progress towards 100%.
once installed your phone will install the ROM and restart.
Anyone tested this version yet?
deleted wrong info given
anyone tried the new rom update yet?
pls let me know if there are any problems or bugs etc??
cheers

I put this version on my phone from htc with hardspl and I have had no problems at all
Do you know if this update will reset the hard spl and radio versions?
Or is it just the rom update. If so, how would I restore my original SPL so that Orange wouldn't know I've tinkered with it?!
My phone has a fault you see and I think I will need to have it replaced.
Thanks
PS, I've installed the Orange ROM. There are no orange customisations at all.
It's like a very basic version of the unofficial 1.93 roms doing the rounds here.
It's good for those that have an old Oraneg rom and don't wanna risk a cooked rom on here, but if you've already got a new rom such as swiftbl or dutty etc, I wouldn't bother with the orange rom.
In fact I'm gonna install a new rom from here and not bother with the boring Orange one!
Thanks for that dude,
However i must say, i have been waiting for this rom from orange for about 2 months now, and all thy can do is supply a rom which has been on this fourm for over a month now. 1.93.405.1. what happend to orange TV and other things...
well all i can say is "shame on you ORANGE UK"
No complants here, this ROM is fast as hell and has no Orange customisation. Just what I wanted.
Happy days.
Battery Life?
Is it any better? Does the phone still heat up like a griddle when its used?

Not sure what you mean by animation between tf3D tabs? Can you still slide between tabs and if you do does the one you are now on show up? Also can you still move between tabs by swiping finger across screen please?

Hi,
I cooked my first rom of Softbank X04HT with annoying USIM nag screen removed.
*** This ROM includes OS only ***
For unlocking issue, please see here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=414835
Other Mods:
- Sample Pictures, Wallpapers, Videos and Musics (.wmv) have been removed from the rom.
I didnt do many mods on this rom.... because I don't know how to...
Other Mods that I want to do if someone can help me:
- Remove all the default weather location (not from the full list, but the selected cities)
Finally, for people who want the mods, please PM me and keep the link for your own use. And don't forget, this is my first cooked ROM (by newbie) and use it as your own risk.
Thank you.

I have tried this ROM too, thanks to Sky Man:
1) yes it can run on any CID unlocked Diamond
2) yes it can make calls. I had exactly the same problem at first. You have to go to the phone/band settings: by default, it's set on 3G only. U've got to change this according with the service available where you live (automatic, GSM, try and see which setting works better for you)
3) the ROM was running fine and fast but I came a across a major bug, therefore I had to uninstall it: after the phone entered sleep mode there was no way to wake it up. Pressing the 'on' button would have no effect and I had to soft reset every time.
Thanks Sky Man for your hardwork anyway. Hope this can be fixed.
(I reinstalled telsta ROM and the bug has disapeared.

There could be a chance that your radio doesnt work with my ROM (actually, the rom from Softbank). Since I didnt do any tuning or mods on the settings, and I have no problem of using the ROM, therefore, I guess the problem could be radio (Im just gussing)
Other people who used this rom pls comment on it ~
Thanks!

Hi, this ROM works well except softbank dial-up connection. It seems that this ROM doesn't have any connection setting. Do you know how I can restore softbank connection setting? (I'm using softbank USIM)

After you flash the rom, the softbank setting should be already there and you cant do any modification on it... Im using the same rom with softbank sim card.

the additional data is in the cd-rom which comes with the phone when you buy it. it's not in the rom, and you have to install the data from the cd-rom.
Why does Japanese roms only say 3G and not H? The Japanese ROM i tried only had 3G, but all the wwe roms I tried show H.

Dear all,
desperately I am looking for a solution for a kind of very stupid and annoying problem:
I bought my Sony z1 compact in China. Model version: M51, Also called "colorful" in China
This Phone has a for China modified Android version installed. Nothing related to google works.
Well, sure the search engine in the browser. But I need the calendar, play store, etc.
Now I am thinking, has anybody experience with this device? ( only find posts to D5503)
Would it be possible to just update it with an international version? (Android 4.4 firmware 14.3.A.0.681)
Do i need to root, unlock Bootloader, or should a "normal update" work was well?
Or any other suggestions how to proceed?
I come the Apple world, where a jailbreak is one download and one click, I rooted a Xiaomi 2s with some small difficulties, but this looks way more complicated with this phone.... So any help would be appreciated..
Thanks,
mic
solved!
Well, developers,
forums are something strange. I really thought that anybody had a suggestion, a thought, an idea or whatever... 70 views and not a single answer.
Interesting.
Sure i could figure out that a root would help of course, but for a newbie like me, all of the descriptions have gaps and require much more knowledge about it, so that there is still a huge risk to screw it up and to maybe not destroy the phone, but to make it not usable until another solution is found.
Since I needed the phone, for receiving calls and SMS, i needed to go the less risky way and in the end - risk was still there ( is the M51w restricted to china and will not handle the firmware of the D5503) I followed the guide on the
"xperiafirmware" page called "Sony XPERIA Z1 Compact D5503 - Android 4.4 - firmware 14.3.A.0.681" ( sorry, cannot post links yet)
I just flashed the Android 4.4 - firmware 14.3.A.0.68 made for the d5503 (according to the guide "1. how to install the newest Android 4.4 for Sony XPERIA Z1 Compact D5503") it worked with out any problems.
One thing that might be misunderstanding is the Flashtool.
After downloading the flash tool its not called "Xperia flash tool", it looks the same as the "androxyde flash tool", and there is a second one which is the " Sony flash tool that is called "Emma" but the flash tool.
So,... just use the one this author linked in his guide, and don't get confused by the names..
Now I have my problems firstly solved. But have to say that, with that some others come...
- Google account sync seems to be not really under my control
- two google accounts even more hard to handle
- and further settings very limited, so that I sometimes even have the feeling i was free with iOS. And the Xiaomi of course let me taste the complete taste of freedom.
- SD card management
- Walkman
- album folders
...
Well , I will figure that out as well.
Hope this post will help somebody!
Just my 2 cents... Downgrade back to android 4.3 I'm pretty sure some of those problems will be solved. And another is Chinese version of Z1C doesn't have LTE support and since you flashed an international version of the ROM LTE might show up in the settings but there's a huge chance it will not work or possibly cause errors. Phones made for chinese market doesn't have google installed because google is blocked in their country. Just a FYI Never noticed your post so I didn't get to assist you before this but seems like you made the correct choice on solving your problem.

Once you get fully up and running, you'll LOL like the rest of us reading that. In this kind of situation you are kind of on your own because until you've tried you'll never know and most of the People reading wont advise you to do something that could potentially hard brick your Phone. You've done what I would have done which is grab an ftf and tried it, not much more you can do.
Same problem
Hi Mic,
I want to follow your example with my Chinese Z1 Compact. Are you still around, in case I have some questions? Have you tried to fix the other problems you mentioned? Any new comments? I am going to try to understand the procedure but I would feel better if I could pick your brain in case I get stuck.
cheers
