Hi i work at a Telstra shop and have just received a shipment of HTC Diamond 2's which is running WinMo 6.5 and it appears the same version of Manilla as the Touch Pro 2. Believe me its faster then any custom ROM's i have tried for the diamond if anyone can use this post up some instructions for a ROM dump and I will upload it.
Regards Waffles
That is the man!

Are you saying that the Touch diamond 2 is coming to telstra? I thought they were only getting the Touch Pro 2.
Can you confirm if the HTC Leo is also coming to Telstra? I would really like to know because I am a Telstra customer and would like to buy the phone.
Info like release date will be helpfull.
Thanks
This should be in the TD2 section, not TD.
Telstra
Yes the TD2 is coming to Telstra starting sale on October 6 i think it may be at T(life) stores first. I know this forum is for the Diamond but since the diamond has such bad performance i thought this might be helpful to some of the cooks that hang around here, if its not of use by all means remove the thread.

yea ... but is for touch diamond 2 not touch diamond u post wrong way le bro ..
I have the Telstra version of TOUCH PRO 2 running WM6.1 and love it. Can't wait to try out the WM6.5 and hopefully the new TouchFLO. I like the Twitter tab.
HTC Leo
to answer your question i just saw the HTC Leo codes in our list of phones to sell, while this doesn't mean for sure we will have it it makes it pretty likely obviously no word yet on plans or pricing but expect it to be mobile repayment option only (at least at the start) and priced at $1499.
Regards Waffles
I e-mailed HTC recently. Their reply:
"6.5 will be available around october time for the devices below:
HTC touch pro 2
HTC touch diamond 2.
if the device is branded please contact the network for further updates.
We have no information on what other devices will be updated as of yet. "
There is hope for us Diamond users then!

oh good.
i am looking for someone who can help me out in actually tainting my own Topaz:
i got mine as a prize from Microsoft at their retailer demonstration of windows 7.
my issue is that in Australia- there is Telstra ROM, then there is manila ROM. i have the Manila, and my Mobile Foxtel doesn't work.
i also can't wait for HTC to officially release a winmo 6.5 upgrade for my phone- and since i am a Telstra dealer, i need an excuse to play with my phone at work- best way for me to do that is to install the telstra ROM, but i can't find anyone with the Telstra ROM at all.
most importantly- i need my mobile foxtel.
i am having withdrawls from almost ad- free tv on my way to work
i need a stock ROM wwe 6.5 topaz for my TD2.........anywhere to find that??

Same question...
There's 2 in development that have been announced on here.
One has already been released as a 'beta' for testing by Tom although it seems there are bugs at the mo so it's not a final release. To download this got to the thread named 'oops black beta'.
There's another German one being made with the possibilty of an English version too.
Hopefully with 2 Diamond roms out in the not so distant future we'll have something pretty and new to choose from soon!
Also just wanted to clarify, I have heard that Windows 7 mobile should be out pretty soon. Does any one have any clue of this version ?
This is from Wikipedia:
Windows Mobile 7
Codenamed "Photon"[29], Windows Mobile 7 is a major upgrade planned for release in 2nd half of 2009.[30] Not much else is known about the release, though leaked information suggests a revamped UI, multi-touch and motion-related features
There could be WM7 roms floating around before then, but I'm unsure whether Artemis and some existing HTC devices would be able to support this or not.
WM7 on the art will run like a dog....

Exactly my thoughts.
May even struggle on something like a Kaiser.
Hi there can any of you guyz out there please help me?
I have the HTC TyTN II and its running windows 6.0 at the moment. I would liketo upgrade to win 6.1 as I am told it is faster. However as it is a 3 branded mobile phone with Planet 3 set up as an option on the main screen, will i lose this Icon when I upgrade as it states on the HTC website. I have spoken to 3 and they do not support the phone any longer, so any help would be very much appreciatedv on this.
Also is there a lot of benefit in upgrading to 6.1? My son has 6.1 on his HTC and it does seem to run a lot faster and the apps seems a lot smoother too.

The only 6.5 released so far is for the European TP2. Yes, it will work on the TMo USA TP2, but it is not officially for the TmoUSA version. It may even put your warrantee in jeaopardy as much as installing a cooked rom since it's not intended for your specific phone. I don't care about that myself, but you might.
When (if) TMo makes it officially available for their version of the TP2 a link will be found on the TMo support page associated with the TP2.
do you think guys that updating to win mobile 6.5 for T Mobile will be soon.
If you want that, and more, just flash your ROM with one of the cooked roms on this site.
I dont think t-mobile will release an update to 6.5, which kinda pisses me off but eh you still have xda!!!
Last i heard T-Mobile has given December as the release date, but if you Hard SPL your device you can load any ROM you want. I am using the official Europe WWE ROM and it works great
Dear friends;
I asked HTC regarding Touch Flo 3d Ver 2.5 for Diamond:
Inquiry Information
Inquiry TypeTechnical Support
Inquiry DescriptionDear Lady/Sir; Would you please clarify if HTC planed to provide a ROM includind Touch Flo 3d Ver 2.5 for Diamond? Best Regards Dariush
And they Replied:
Thank you for contacting HTC Corporation Middle East Support,
Regarding to your inquiry, kindly be informed that we still waiting for the final Ver. from Microsoft very soon, so please check our official website www.htc.com/mea-en/ for launching date, it will be worth waiting .
Sounds amazing!!!! GO GO GO HTC!!!
what are they waiting from M$ ? TouchFLO3D??
I don't think HTC will ever release an official update to Sense 2.5 for Diamond1. They'll make more money if we'd have to buy a new phone...

i agree.......
I'm sure they misunderstood you. I'm also 100% sure there wont be official update for Diamond with TF3D2.5
TF3D 2.5 won't be available for diamond 1.
I emailed HTC a few weeks ago, they said that they didn't know if theres gona be an official rom to Diamond1.
WM6.5 for diamond2 is already out:
http://www.htc.com/europe/support.aspx
http://www.htc.com/es/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=733&news_id=315
so maybe they are talking about DM1

Listen to this,
The diamond 2 6.5 rom official, is with touchflo 2.1
Why the would release the older one
with 2.5 ? think about that.
And also, i think there dont come an update to wm 6.5 on htc diamond

I think TF2.5 would be too much for the original Diamond´s hardware.
Maybe I´m wrong though and they really manage to streamline and optimize it.
It is already amazing what the original Diamond is able to do.

I asked my question in support section of Diamond (not diamond2) section of HTC site, so it is not possible that they replied about diamond2 instead of Diamond. Why don't you try to ask HTC regarding TFT3d ver 2.5 as I asked?
They're shouldn't be waiting for Microsoft, they should be waiting for xda-developers!
Hi friends,
I have been a very happy user of the Artemis for a long time and a big fan of this forum. I have happily tested a lot of ROMs from this forum and am currently running the Dheewatara-s M2D Mega beta2.
My question is, now that the Artemis is getting on in years, what would be the next HTC model to look forward to? Something to replace the Artemis which I consider the best for the Price/Performance/Feature set?
Regards
Rajeev
I think it is HTC Touch Cruise 2 (Iolite), because this model is from same model series aimed for autonavigation.
I will be waiting for an HTC just like Artemis in hardwares and shape, but new in everything. Hope HTC company would do it.
