HTC Touch HD (Blackstone) tweaks and tricks – from xda-developers

http://www.zdnet.co.uk/i/z5/rv/2008/09/htc_touch_hd_432x315.jpg

1. Using the Back Key
You can use the actual back key at the bottom of your phone to go back a web page or two in Opera, instead of bringing up the Opera menu and selecting the back arrow.

2. Exiting Volume Screen
For quick exit of the volume screen, tap anywhere in the dark grey background surrounding the vertical slider button.

3. Reduce Errors in Typing
In Input options, disable the number of words to show in T9 for less mistakes when typing and thus faster entry.

4. Improve Photo Thumbnail Resolution in Photo Tab
Modify or tweak a photo (such as adjusting brightness) using a image editor directly on your HD (eg: Resco Photo Viewer) and save and overwrite the original. This makes the photo thumbnails on your Photo Touchflo 3D tab hi-res instead of low-res.

5. Change the Order of Photos in Fav Album
Modify or tweak a photo (such as adjusting brightness) using a image editor directly on your HD (eg: Resco Photo Viewer) in the order you want your photos to appear on your Photo Touchflo 3D tab, as they are displayed in order of last modified/created date. The first photo you modify will be the last to show in your Photo Touchflo 3D tab and vice-versa.

sun_dream also posted the following video, that shows a new panel screen, resembling one of the screen-shots we have seen earlier.

The ROM, is a Beta and doesn’t carry the whole OS, so expect the final product to be a lot different.

This is the Windows Mobile 6.5 features, that the ROM has:
