[Q] Hardware manuals/how to vids - HD Mini General

Posted this elsewhere, but think it may have been wrong section...
Does anyone know where I can find a hardware manual or a "how to" vid on how to change the digitiser (zer for all you americans) on a HTC HD mini T5555? A video would be preferred so I can see wots goin on!
I have the new parts and the tri-wing tool, just want to make sure I'm not breaking anything when going into it.
Cheers

@Zalaros...
Thanks very much, told me exactly what I needed. Was easier than I thought, bit tricky getting the old digitizer plug to come out though!

@Zalaros...
Do you know where I can get a technical manual or something explaining how the light sensor works (I want to disable it as I now have the black screen issue when calling).
Cheers

If you search the same X1 forum that you posted this in, you'll find another thread already dedicated to this topic
Not to be rude, but check out more info here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=444542
The last I read was that people were hoping to use the headphone / 4-pole jack on the phone to enable TV-Out, although I don't think there have been any breakthroughs as of yet. It would probably require some heavy work to get it going...
My best guess anyways, but it would be nice to say the least!
sorry didnt know there was another post
thanks!

Very Very very important matter

Moved thread.
I would suggest that you start by reading the wiki.
...or even just explaining what the problem is.

If you post your problem, many "experts" can help you and maybe others will benefit from the advice. There is something inherently selfish about asking for private help in a public forum.
Welcome to the forum!
This forum is meant to be a community where everyone helps, everyone is helped and everyone learns something in the process. It is not really a place to find your own private tech support.
We all enjoy helping each other. Post your problem and it is likely that many people will contribute. That way other people will also benefit in the future if they experience the same problem and they can read about it in this forum.
So, let us know what your problem is and we'll all try to find the best solution for you.
And one last thing, on your very first post in a forum, it's not a great idea to ask people for their personal email to contact them.
If you want private support you pay for it.
So, please go to your local phoneshop and pay them.
Or pay someone on this forum to help you personally. For example, 25-50 euro per hour is a reasonable fee.
There is no free lunch. You have not given the community anything, so why would anyone care about you so much that they would go out of their way to give you personal support for free? Sorry, but you are very naive.
Also, next time please try to name the topic informatively.

First of all - no, your problems are not silly - and this forum is for EVERYONE. Sorry if it seemed that everyone was ganging up on you. We all understand that you don't have a ton of time to spend on the forum. Some people have more time than others and that is totally normal. People in this forum are from all walks of life - young to old, and from all different jobs and professions. A couple of us are in the medical field and we like to volunteer our time doing computer stuff on the side. So, don't feel bad - post whatever question and spend whatever time you can here.
With that said, you should also keep in mind that often times using the search function in the forum (and even the "search this particular forum" option) can answer you question right away and can save the forum from having threads with repeating topics. I know that you don't always find things via search. It has happened to me that I don't find anything, and then someone else shows me an old thread about something I was asking. But in trying the search function as an initial step is always good. It makes the forum more effective.
Now to answer some of your questions.
1. That is a topic that you'll need to spend some time in. Yes, you can play different kinds of video files, but you might need other software for some types of files. And depending on the video, you might need to convert it to an encoding that can be played better on the HD. Things like encoding, bitrate and resolution all play a role here. Like I said, this is a big topic you are dealing with here. This thread has everything you need to know about that. See here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=446366
If you need to convert videos, then SUPER is a great free program. All the info is in the link above.
2. What kind of message are you talking about? Text message (sms) or email?
3. I don't know too much about themes, but I know there are some out there. Try searching the forum for HD themes. Or maybe someone else here who knows more than I do can point you in a direction.
Anyway, I hope this helps a bit. Your first question is something that will just take time to understand and eventually master. I knew little about it until I read that thread I posted. So, just give yourself some time and take the advice for settings given in that post.
Once again, we really are glad you joined the forum. We are all one big family of HD people eager to discover more about our nice little device, and you will find that people here are very helpful.
Cheers

nicely said,
sometimes i do not ask for help as i have read post where the reply was "why dont you use the search feature etc."
with me, when i am looking for a answer to a problem i start with one search and then i find a link to another thread after a few hours i do not know what i was looking for or i do not find the answer, it is here on this forum, but hard to find especilly when you have some threads on 50 or 111 pages and some tech terms are not known.
the Wiki is a great place to start and most of the answers are there, but not all.
i got my touch HD just before Christmas, i had a MDA Compact IV, tried most of the software that i had on that phone and some of it did not work, so i had to start from scratch, wasnt sure about the phone at the start only upgraded as i had run out of storage space on the Compact IV as the Touch HD had a storgae card.
Now all blinged up as my firends would put it, this phone it great, cost a lot but well worth it.
i am not knocking the members on this forum as they have produce great programs for us to use, and have solved many problems, but not everyone is a expert on this forum, and when 111 pages of discustions were posted and a problem resloved, this member was not known to this forum, so he is starting from fresh and would like a little help as some members would kindly give.
nice responses from senior members.
I would also suggest that the title be changed.?
It is not as stated a very very very importand matter except only for the newmember.
Thanks.

I dont think I have seen this error with anything other than email. What I have expereinced when this happens can be 2 things. First, when I set up email it takes a few hours for some unknown reason to start retrieving email.
The other time I see this is when I forget to set the right connection while setting email up. I am with att so when I set mine up I need to make sure I tell email to connect using Media.net in the drop down menu under advanced settings. Hope this helps you on that topic.
wahh chriss cross thnx for the replay and the help .. i thought when i go to check back the post someone was going to start insulting me with noob and stuff like that thisi s what i thought cuz i didnt find alot of friendly persons on forums genraly anyways thank you very much
i will start to look at the link u gave me about the 1st problem
and about msging im talking about " SMS " when i try to send SMS it says "Your messege cannot be sent" and in the bottom of the screen it says "Error Synchronizing"
thanks again
*Edit*
i did read the post that was made by "tnyynt" that u sent to me about video problem i didnt understand a sh**

no worries - I think the attacks are history.
Anyway, here are some more questions:
1. Can you receive sms?
2. Can you call and receive calls without any problem?
3. Have you installed anything that could be affecting things?
EDIT: By the way, here is a link to this forum's Wiki with HD tips. It might be helpful for you in general to become more and more familiar with your new HD. So far we have 43 tips and I'm sure the list will keep growing. And here is a link the to Wiki for programs working and not working on the HD. Both of those are updated whenever something new comes up.
About SMS
Are you sending sms using the e-mail tab in the TouchFLO 3D?

HI Alamaai,
i disagree with some harsh answers. However, it is important to understand that the difference between this forum and HTC Support is the same difference between a self-service and a restaurant with waiters. the food is here and is for free, but nobody is supposed to take you the dishes and you have to walk around and find the food you need. if you really don't find the food, and it is a large restaurant, then you can ask somebody that will probably give you the right hint if we build/add additional information interesting to everybody else.
Nobody here is paid to do this, and we all invest our own private free time to build information which is useful to ourselves.
So...welcome to the XDA self-service! food is great, fellows are nice!
...and this email contributes in building information: if you would have SEARCHED for it, you wouldn't have created your thread!
All the best!
hey sms works now it was from the number that i have to put in sms service
thanks

i can understand how enoying it can be for users to be asked the smae questions, but sometimes it helps to be pointed in the right direction.
when i do ask for help i do not except all the work to be done for me, but sometimes i might not know where to look or someone else on this forum has read or seen a thread relating to my problem.
A user was asking how can he get analogue clocks on his Touch HD.
it can not be done at the moment but i saw a thread where a user installed a Wa2 theme for his phone which had a annalogue clock, all i did was show him the thread, it would have been the last place he would have looked as it was posted in the "Post Your HD Screens" thread.
a little help goes a long way.
A basic intro to video conversion

Click to collapse
Yeah -
Glad to hear it got solved.
And now in terms of the video thing, here is a basic introduction.
PLEASE SEE UPDATED VERSION OF THIS POST IN THE WIKI
Keep in mind I am absolutely no expert - and so the video experts here might cringe at my explanation. So if any of you experts out there want to correct me - PLEASE DO - I always like learning new things.
Okay, different things affect how your HD will play a video. The more the processor is pushed to its limits the poorer the quality you will see when playing a video. So, the trick is to find a happy medium between some of the main contributers to quality and processor drain.
1. The bitrate (kbps) is a measure for how much data information is being processed per second. The higher this number, the better the picture, but it also means the processor needs to work harder.
2. The resolution (or scale size) refers to the number of pixels (width x height) that the video will be shown in (at a natural 100% zoom). The higher the resolution, the clearer the picture - but also more work for the HD.
3. The frames per second (fps): A video is basically made up of a bunch of individual frames (or pictures) that are played really fast one after the other. You will often see settings between 23 and 30 fps. I have to say that I don't really see much difference here. However, sometimes if the audio is not properly synchronized with the video after you have done the conversion, they recommend you check what the fps of the original video was, and then keep it the same on your settings for conversion.
4. The aspect ratio is basically the shape the video will be in. 3:4 is your standard TV type size, while 16:9 or 16:10 are common wide screen formats. I personally like the wide screen formats. There are other aspect ratios, but these are the really common ones. Ideally you want an aspect ratio that will be as close as possible to the aspect ratio of the monitor or screen that you will be viewing the video it. That way it just fits nicer.
5. And finally the audio encoding. It also has different settings. Basically four things:
Type of encoding (for example mp3, AC3 or AAC etc.)
Bitrate (kbps - same concept as in video bitrate): Common is around 128kbps
Sampling frequency (in Herz: Hz): Common is 44100 Hz
Mono (1 channel) vs. Stereo (2 channels) sound. There is also 6-channels for surround sound, but that won't do much on your HD.
So, there you have the main things that you should be familiar with. And now, all those settings can be packaged up in different ways. That brings us to the OUTPUT settings for conversion. The goal is to achieve the smallest possible file size with the best possible video quality.
You can look at it as a container that holds a specific formula or encoding inside. Container formats are, for example, .avi, .mp4 and many others. However, the "formula" inside these containers can vary a lot. That is the "encoding" or "codec". Some examples are divx, xvid, MPEG-4, .h263, .h264 etc. So, two different videos might both have file names ending in .avi (the container), but have a totally different encoding inside that container. One might be an xvid and the other one an MPEG-4 - or whatever.
If you use SUPER to convert videos, you see how it is nicely broken up into the different categories for you to choose settings. See the picture I attached. You can either play with different settings, or you can use settings that other people have posted and said they worked well for them.
The HD is limited as to what it can play. So depending on the container and codec used, you can use the HD's album program to play the video or you might need third-party programs like CorePlayer (for example to play divx). The thread I posted earlier shows what different people have tried and how their experience was when using the HD's native album player, or the HD's Windows Media Player or third-party software like CorePlayer.
There is one more thing... called "hardware acceleration". It is a technology that greatly improves how smooth a video is, especially in fast scenes with lots of movement. It involves a piece of hardware (hardware accelerator - like a graphics card) as opposed to just the software. The HD is equipped with this technology, and so its native player can use it. However, programs like CorePlayer don't support the use of a hardware accelerator yet - but CorePlayer has the advantage of being able to play codecs (like divx) that the HD alone cannot play. It's all a give-and-take trying to see what works best.
I tried several players and ended up staying with the HD's native album player with its hardware acceleration. But to get the best quality I end up having to convert most of my videos, and that can be quite time consuming. Everyone has different opinions on that. Some people love CorePlayer.
Sooo, I hope this basic introduction helps you understand other threads a bit better. If you have questions - just ask. I'm not an expert in this, but other people here are pretty knowledgeable when it comes to that.
Cheers

Thank you. And yes, if it will help others - then I'd gladly do a wiki for it. I've never done a wiki before (I've only edited them) - so I don't really know where or how one is made. But, I'll check out your link.
EDIT: Thanks HDuser for the fixing the formatting.
Here is the link to the new wiki regarding this topic.

just a quick question...

where do you change the settings for the "enabled LED notifications" that you turn on in many different programs like BSB Tweaks, HS2tweak and Touch tools. is it a hidden menu or something? i can't find anything and i don't notice any different function of the LED after installing these programs!
really?
ok so 60 people have looked at this and not a single one either knew the answers or couldn't reply. it is really bothering me that i can figure it out since i feel i have poked and prodded all the files and registries in this and i just can't find it!
Well I'll tell you one thing. Your post makes no sense as to what you want. That could be the issue with people not responding. Your all over the place. You start talking about one thing then go into something else.
What exactly are you looking for? How to activate a program you installed? Were the program is installed? I know I couldn't make an sense out of what you were babbling.
If you are asking a question about Touch Tools why not go ask the question in his thread?
my bad!

i didn't mean to come off rude or anything! sorry if i did. my original question seemed pretty clear to me but i wrote it so i knew what i was asking i guess. thanks for pointing it out. i didn't ask it in touch tools thread since it is not solely a function of Touch tools and i thought it would be a simple look here answer and it is more visible out in the open and not burried in some thread I'll try that next time though.

actually you didn't make it much clearer now
anyway, IF I understand you correctly, you need a way to enable/disable led notifications for specific kinds of events.
That's not something you can set from within the stock set of settings afaik, yet there is a tool in here called "led nofications" that does just that, you only have to search for it
i conced....
i must be writing backwards and seeing it correctly myself or something!
thanks for the try.
i'll just leaving it turned on and maybe some day i'll stumble upon it wherever it is on the phone.
Ok I got what you want and I believe it was answered by ephestione. So you want the notification LED on or off?
To find the LED settings for each different event:
settings tab
menu> All Settings
Sounds & Notifications
Notifications Tab
Select an event (eg. Message: New Message)
Select whether or not to flash LED and for what duration. Please note that the LED notification does not work for new emails unless you install Phone alarm by pocket max.
thank you
thank you very much for the very detailed answer. that was exactly what o was looking for. i knew i had it i just had no idea how to use it!

ver 2 and ver 3 screens

ok i have looked and looked but there was a thread that showed how to tell the 2 apart but it is locked or gone now
how to tell the two apart and i dont mean just by the hdwr ver.
i have
hdwr 3 ( the latest )
grey/charcoal pearlized back ( from the 002 it seems )
a battery that shows no gold stripes ( from the latest it seems )
a samsung sd card ( from the latest )
and the screen??
i do get the power control widget to control and my screen seems to change instantly ( meaning poss epson ) unlike the fade control
but i have part it seems from both 002 and 003 so id like to see somewhere in the phone what the screen has
oh and the build from the batter cover is 4/21 so im stumpped here
so can anyone tell me how to tell what lcd i have and how to get the 30fps fix??
mt
this should be in Q&A

like i posted i found it
i searched this forum all over and i kept finding a related post but the link would direct to a blank page with the post not found, thanks but i found the complete instructions on how to use android sdk to firn the evo txt to determine the correct screen on ANOTHER forum,
so the thread here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=708811&page=3
contains this link for so called help to ascertain the way but it is broken so offers no help at all
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6919950&postcount=562
so before you slam me and ask me to search, I did i did that in fact and found notta here on that, so about 45min later on google i did.
if a forum is a guide and a place for help why are there so many that dont and resort to making someone have to run looking for the elusive answer
this is what i found when i search for
how to find out epson screen or novatel
http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?searchid=39275143
this is what i found when i search
how to determine screen
http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?searchid=39275199
i could go on, it may be here but my point is it didnt find it instead i got was smart A$$ answers telling me to look which is exactly what i did in the first place
now if anyone wants to know the directions to determine wht real screen the have not based on hdwr versions here it is i dont mind sharing or even re-posting. i know sometimes searches can be often down to the correct words and not everyone will land on them all the time, i sure didnt. besides im here to help rather than bash

i just hope this helps
Another option is to download terminal emulator from the market. Type dmseg and hit enter. Then select menu and email the results to yourself. Then scroll towards the bottom half and if you see Epson that's what you got.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
We still haven't established whether Epsen or Novatek is the better screen.
I'm having a hard time deciding wether to return my EVO and try and get the Epson screen. The screen is way brighter and more visible in sunlight with the Novatel but the color accuracy is better on the Epson. The Epson also has a screen tearing issues when you remove the 30fps cap whereas the Novatel does not. I am usually a stickler for good color accuracy but in this case i'm not sure I will be happier with the Epson screen. Still have a few more days to decide...but can't seem to make up my mind.

Problem with running android on my HTC

First of all, I'm new to this forum (Hi!) and I know this is probably posted in the wrong section, but I don't have enough posts to post it in the appropriate one and I don't want to go spam random comments.
Anyhow, I have an HTC Touch (Either a Vogue or an HTC Elf, I can't see the difference). I've been trying to get Android on my phone using this tutorial (+ the file in the description "Android Eclair for HTC Vogue")
www youtube com/watch?v=XftzWJW_TyM&feature=player_embedded
All goes well until I try running HaRET, it says "Jumping to Kernel" after running it, gives me a grey/black screen, then a white screen and then it sort of freezes.
Now I know I need to use the right default.txt, but for some reason I can't find the right one anywhere and I think that's my problem.
Thanks in advance!
This is the way I got Myn's Warm Donut working on my OKTA Touch (HTC Vogue).
Just follow the instructions here and you will be fine. Also don't skip any of them out either as you will just brick your phone
It's by far the easiest way to do it

First of all, I'm new to this forum (Hi!) and I know this is probably posted in the wrong section, but I don't have enough posts to post it in the appropriate one and I don't want to go spam random comments.
Anyhow, I have an HTC Touch (Either a Vogue or an HTC Elf, I can't see the difference). I've been trying to get Android on my phone using this tutorial (+ the file in the description "Android Eclair for HTC Vogue")

All goes well until I try running HaRET, it says "Jumping to Kernel" after running it, gives me a grey/black screen, then a white screen and then it sort of freezes.
Now I know I need to use the right default.txt, but for some reason I can't find the right one anywhere and I think that's my problem.

There's a critical difference between the CDMA Touch (Vogue) and GSM Touch (Elf) - their chipsets. Vogue is MSM, Elf is OMAP. there is no Android port for the Elf.
Thanks for the answers, but here's a small update, I'm 99 percent sure I have an Elf now, since I just tried what this post (/thread) said:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4430936&postcount=551
It works, but I can't make calls, can't take pictures, ...
Any ideas what I could do or where I could download non-outdated files?
Thanks!

Get thee to the elf forum... perhaps this thread could be magically transported there?

I didn't know I had an HTC Elf when I made this thread, sorry :3.
