What ROM do you run? T-Mobile Dash WM5/6?
You say it's only when you complete a word - this means you run a ROM with xT9 text prediction or similar, otherwise the phone won't know when a word ends.
This indicates in my opinion that it's SW related.
I haven't seen this on my S620 (WM5 nearly 100% HTC ROM with no text prediction at all) so far for the last six month.

ok - but what is the name of the SW?
maybe some people are willing to pay for it

There is a (official Touch ROM) RUU available at pdamobiz:

RUU_Elf_DOPODASIA_WWE_1.11.707.1B_4.1.13.42_02.93.90_Ship.exe

I think this would help to get the Touch back to life if you damaged it with a wrong flash.

Have you tried an alternative Browser like Opera or Opera Mini?

here is a picture of the german keyboard...

Now we only need the WM6 Upgrade to come out by HTC

Oh - yes you're right, my fault - they are already in png - sorry....

@dog, Paul or another happy guy who already has this awesome device in hands:


please can you make a screenshot directly from the homescreen and post it?

please do not compress with jpg but with lossless png format or as raw bmp

I just want to make a homescreen for smartphones with this LCD screen.

Thanx very much in advance

How much RAM is free for programs and how much ROM-Flash is left for installing programs on the phone?

I think I'm near to get over to the PPCs now as they finally have reduced the size to regular mobile phone size

why do you do such stupid things?
Did you hope to repair a broken soldering point?

I could not at least imagine what this would be good for...

Strange - on my O2 Cosmo (which is nearly the same as original HTC S620) it works as expected

Do run WM5 or WM6?

I think there are two possibilities:
1. (I don't hope for you) the "BIOS" is broken and the phone therefore cannot boot
2. the battery is broken

it seems like they have not only removed the software for wifi but also stripped the hardware itself.
Even with a T-Mo Dash-ROM (don't ask me how to get it running ;) ) wifi doesn't work...

Dash WM6 is officially out now

http://www.t-mobileapps.com/downloadcenter...fm?selDevice=27


It looks like the same as the "leaked" one. They are the same size and Total Commander says they are (binary) identical.

So please go on and post you're experience....

now Dash WM6 Upgrade is official available:

did anybody of you get a software running that monitors the GPRS traffic on the Excalibur?

I tried some apllications but only the special version for QTEK8500 of efficasoft's GPRS Traffic Monitor was able to count the traffic.
The others didn't count anything on my O2 XDA cosmo.

Anybody who found another one that counts correctly or is it just an issue with the O2 ROM version ?

directory has changed - try this one:
ftp://xda:xda@ftp.xda-developers.com/Uplo..._smartphone.zip

That's what I did and the author of pTravelAlarm answered very quickly.
He is indeed working on a beta 2.7.2 and he sent me a drop of his current version.

This one fixed at least the issue on my phone, but he is still working on the software.
So hold one a little bit - pTravelAlarm is on the way

Maybe anyone can confirm the bug I see on my german XDA cosmo (O2 branded Excalibur):

it appears as soon as a lock is enabled:
"device lock" (this lock where you have to type in a PIN to unlock the phone)
or the "keypad lock" (where you have to press left softkey and "*" ).
Now when the alarm rings the pTravelAlarm comes in foreground and you have the choice to "snooze" or "stop" the alarm.

So far so good.

But now the problem:
regardless of which of the two buttons you press you are locked out of the phone. pTA is still in foreground and the left software button says "unlock" but when you press it nothing happens.

In consequence the only possible thing is to remove the battery and restart the phone.

So this pretty software is useless for me at the moment, because I don't want to restart my phone every morning with this rude method.

Anyone else with this problem or is it only the german O2 ROM which causes this problem?

Can confirm that. Full-screen!!! A little bit crippled menus, but absolutely readable.
I have a German O2 XDA Cosmo which is more like the original HTC S620 than the Dash (no XT9 Text, very few branding, ...)

The only thing is the input of addresses in TT. Only letters which don't have assigned a number, work as expected. The others are like multitap (1-9 -> WER, SDF, XCV). So if you want to type a "W" you have to hit "9" 1 time instead, "E" is 2 times "3", "R" is 3 x "7" and so on

Thanks for the keyword "CoPilot" - never heard of it before

Found a special version of CoPilot Live 6 T-Mobile Dash Software but it's not available yet.

Also found a thread at xda-developers that route 66 still has a keyboard issue and the support said they will release an update "soon"

Hi,

has anybody info about a working navigation software on the Excalibur?

as Paul has mentioned (>here<) TomTom 5.2 and Navigator 6 don't run in a usable way.

Has anybody tried out Route66?
Since they have listed the Moto Q in their supported phones list and show a picture of a Samsung SGH-i320 running Route 66 my hopes are high that it's running on the Excalibur.

Or does anybody know any other solution that works?

Thanks for your help

So I have to go with Route66 which is cheaper in addition

I suppose it should work on S620, because they list the Moto Q in their supported phones list and show a picture of I320 running Route 66

Has anybody experience with Route 66 on a S620?

Is TomTom (5.2 is the actual smartphone version) although usable despite of these two restrictions?
Can you choose to run it in Portrait mode and do you get a correct display output?

Or is TT5.2 not usable at all?

The S620 would fit my needs exactly what I've heard so far but I would love to have a usable navigation software on it.

Can anybody say something about the volume of the internal speaker?

Is it loud enough to navigate with TomTom while driving in the car?

Actually the sound level of my SDAII is a little bit poor (especially when I drive a little bit faster over the german highways )

In TomTom can you type in the city and the streets with the alpha-keyboard or just only with the number keys?

Is the screen still readable in direct sunlight or without backlight (on SDAII I see nearly nothing under these conditions)?

Thanks guys...

Hope that helps...
