Hi people!
Just got my diamond and i do love it!
just a few questions i thought some one could help out with. i have searched for answers to these but they do not seem to be answered or even asked.
To me they seem like obvious questions, but the way each person uses their phone is unique i suppose.
1) i use bluetooth headphones and after upgrading the rom to TOM_DiamondProject_v3.3_WWE from the stock rom the audio quality is MUCH improved. the thing when ever i try to enable audio booster it says i have no headset connected. now i assume the audio booster puts a few treble bass boosts on and ups the voltage on the headphone output. i am i correct in assuming that since bluetooth headphones have their own power and audio circuitry this feature is not needed for me or is there a way of getting the volum/bass/trable boosts enabled with bluetooth headphones? Not to boost the volume of the bluetooth headphones, as that is the domain of the headset, but to send a louder/bass singlal to the headset?
2) people have suggested disabling gprs/internet to save on battery. great idea but i am wondering, if some one sends me a picture, will the gprs/mms connection fire up and accept or will i get a text message, like my mum does, to direct me to a website to download the picture?
3) people have suggested turning of the GPS. whilst this is not a feature i would use ( i dont drive!) i cannot see an explicit option to turn it off any where, such as the comms manager.
4) am i correct in thinking that the touch flow 3d music tab will only play mp3? i have moved some aac encoded mp4 and m4a containred files into the folder and whilst the mp3`s are picked up by the music tab, the m4a/mp4 files are ignored. they play fine in media player so i assume this is a problem with the music tab? any way of making it `see` m4a/mp4 files?
finally.
5) i was hopeing the music tab would be like the cover flow on the ipods but its not. am i right in thinking that i have to sellect the album i want to play and then flick up and down to flick between the tracks? can i not flick between albums like you can on an ipod without selecting the album i want via libary -> albums -> album1 etc? in other words can i only flick between tracks and not albums?
thanks in advance for any help any one can give me!
p.s. while i remember, is there any way to make the text in the sms application smaller? with the keypad and the threaded sms there is no room for what i am texting. can i alter the screen real estate set asside to the previous sms at the top and make it smaller and then increase the amount set to what i am typing? can i make the font used in this program smaller? theres no need for size 14 fonts in sms on this screen!
