There is a post at XDA-developers, where the people are complaining that after using the Touch Diamond for few months, the backlight goes down permanently! The screen’s backlight does not come up even after reverting back to the original firmwares. This clearly signifies that it is not due to firmwares as other HTC Diamonds are working fine.

Flashing the base ROM gives the following error:

MicropERROR
Microp Version Mismatch 0
Please update latest Microp firmware

I don’t know what it means. It is too early to make out, if the problem is hardware-related. I hope it is software-related because then, the issue can be solved via releasing firmware. But, if it is hardware-related, then HTC will have to deal with millions of Diamond owners from all over the world.

GScroll allows you to swipe your finger left/right/up/down on the touch panel to scroll or navigate. This functionality will work in any Windows Mobile application that supports scrolling or navigation via the directional pad.

GScroll allows each of the 4 quadrants of the touch panel to be assigned to a custom application. Double tapping the quadrant will launch the application of your choosing. You can also assign custom actions to the hotkey, such as ‘Open Start Menu’ and ‘Close Current Application’.
