I'm starting this thread to research the hidden possibilities in the HTC Touch Dual (nike). Alot of questions have been asked about wifi capabilities in the dual and how they may be there just locked by the manufacturer. I hope this thread will help us answer wether further capability is unlockable via roms, cabs, drivers, or registry changes.
In an article about the upcoming WM6.1 I found these interesting finds.

"Qualcomm see the decreasing cost of the smartphone spurring growth in adoption of these devices. Steve talked about the Qualcomm/Microsoft collaboration effort and the MSM 7xxx series of chipsets we see in today’s latest and greatest devices. These chipsets include GPS, media, applications processors and more in a single, low battery consumption configuration. There are several variants of their chips in mobile devices today with some having everything inside and some having limitations desired by the manufacturer or carrier for various reasons (cost, size of the device, targeted market, etc)."
The HTC Touch Cruise (polaris) has GPS & Wifi with the Qualcomm® MSM 7200, 400MHz processor - The same processor the HTC Touch Dual (nike) has. There would be no reason to use additional hardware in the Polaris if the processor provides this capability.
already posted at other thread that when someone installs the various cabs that people are trying, when we go to wlan settings mac adress doesn't appear.
Usualy appears even when wifi is off.
Regarding gps i tried using google maps to see if detects something but the only com port that kinda works is com 7 but it turns bluetooth on, so it must be a bluetooth port...
Here you have a link for the japanese version that will be available in january.
NO GPS, but has WIFI and FM RADIO.
wouldn't mind having fm radio on my nike!!!!

There's neither WiFi nor FM radio in the japanese version. PDAdb.net is just wrong (as many times before).

hmmm thank's for the reply...
our bad....
<sigh> pearl white....
And what are they talking about FM? Someone speaking Japanese?
if you tranlate the page you can see the word FM appearing...

IT HAS FM RADIO
Chainfire:
Just wondering if you could post a RegDump (possibly directory/file listing) of your Kaiser?
I think we are still missing some registry entires.
One such entrie:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\CommManager\WLAN]
"DeviceName"="{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}\TNETW12511"
If I know how to extract files from Rom's I'd probably stand a better chance at all this.
Wifi -> theres already a lot of discussion on another thread
this thread has been dealing with wifi hidden capacities (or not)

It does indeed seem to have an FM radio. It doesn't change much, though (hardware-wise at least, as you would have to use the headset as an antenna).
My point is, don't trust blindly on PDAdb.net. You can find many errors if look around in there (though most of it seems to be right).

Heh you are right, I did miss that one. Can't make a complete listing right now but I can send you a comparison between the two devices I made yesterday.. In these files 'M' stands for missing and 'D' stands for different... If you send me back two files with only the lines of the files and registry entries you want I can make it into a patch by pressing a button...
I'll try sending you a full listing and dump (instead of the compare files from yesterday) later today.

Hi, thanks for that, it would seem that there are quite a few registry keys missing, I've only searched for GPS keys so far, the main ones needed for interfacing with the GPS driver seem to be missing.
But even after going though and making my own registry file, GPS still does not work, nothing appears on com 4.

Have you tried COM7 ?

yep think its comm 7 on the dual
I think registry keys and DLLs won't help in this case. The MSM7200 GPS function should be enabled by a low level hardware driver that is probably loaded after reset before the OS comes on. Then the OS either sees the GPS port or not. An expert's help is thus needed in this case.
As for WIFI, someone mentioned the lack of MAC address for the WIFI. Again - this is a HW issue as the MAC address is coded in ROM (unerasable part of the FLASH) just like IMEI. And if it is not there to begin with... hmmm...
But we can certainly look for one if we have access to the ROM code - it is a 6-digit number that should begin with 00h 18h 41h. If we correlate a few devices that have this string in the same location than maybe there is something to it (WiFi included).
I was trying GPS test, it scanned all com ports, it did halt on Com7, but now it just skips it.
I think a hard reset and start again is in order.

That web page also indicates that GSM850 is supported. For a USA user, that would be the most important thing of all. There has been some speculation that the phone can support GSM850 now. Perhpas the Japanese ROM will turn it on.
I have an htc s640 (iris 100) has the exact same specs as the HTC Touch and my wifi is enabled. i know it has GPS but its disabled. if you need anything from my registry id be happy to help. only difference between these phones that i can tell is the touch screen. rest of the specs seem to be the same.

That phone has a Qualcomm MSM7500 chip, the Dual has a Qualcomm MSM7200 chip.
Hi.
I'm very new in this aspect so please be gentle
Did You heard about this device from NavRoad. I have version with 3g - price was good (i hope) and the spec. isnt bad.
But i have a problem - WiFi modul isnt working as it should. It has very smal range and sometimes it can breake the connection to router.(if the device is to far from router for example- 5-7m not including walls or something like this.
Probably it is problem with bad soft id device(now it;s 4.1.1), and this new upgrade from NavRoad(no one knows when this will be) should correct this problem, but for now I would like to ask all You what this could be? Is there any soft that could repair my problem with wifi or this is hardware problem?
I didnt find nothing what would be help to me on this problem.
Full spec. availible on NavRoad site. Just look for Nexo 3g....
PS: Sorry form my bad english
Thanks
No reply for me?
No one knows?
Probably nobody knows this device.
I can't establish connection via Cisco AnyConnect because there isn't drivers TunTap.
Hi, This phone is functioning everything well but only isn't charning. I searched the producet service manual and found that I need
to change an ic called U401 MAX8899EWZ-T 1203-006291. Here is a photo of the ic:
Now wondering where to find this ic? and how tough is it going to be?
Thanks for your help in advance.

Hi,
i need to replace microphone in this device, but cannot find the model and could not find one by device id (nx508j).
I am not going to teardown device myself.
Does anyone know the model of microphone (the one that is used by FB messenger, Viber, etc., because the one that is used by phone app works OK) in Nubia Z9 Classic, please?

I mean.
You're going to need to teardown the device to replace the microphone anyway, so.. why not just do that now and find the model it is?
It's because service is who is going to teardown it. And before they do that, I need to find the model of mic and order it in China..
I do not have the phone at hand. I'm not the one who uses it. It's my friend from another city who will send the phone to me once I get spareparts. So I will bring it to service here.
After a quick search, I found this. Hopefully that's what you were looking for.
hello guys, i got here a Blackview BV4900 with a probelm of wifi and bluetooth. I think the chipset is damaged but not sure, it says unavailable mac adress and ip for both wifi and bluetooth
Tried reseting wifi and nothing also i tried Factory rest and the same problem keep showing that Bluetooth does´t responding. is there any soultion or as i said in the first Chipset is gone. Hope ypu help and share and idea if you have (The phone is for work and probably everyday a diffrent human working with, cause there is more than 200 to scan some QR codes and i think someone droped it) thx in advanced
Maybe the antenna inside the phone detached from the fall. I don't know the construction of this phone. Just an idea. Does the GPS work in airplane mode?
