Im happy with black 3.01 but I guess its good to know they will be officially releasing wm6

No official wm6 for the Trinity

Hi,now it's sure,the Trinity will not benefit upgrade with the official wm6 rom.For info,read here

Check this out
http://www.dopodasia.com/global/hke/news/20070503_Dopod_WM6_upgrade.html

I 've already read this, but i think it's not for Htc Europe.

I donno where I've read it but I remember that dopod will upgrade the 3600 to wm6
Edit sorry losai already mention it

It's an old news you've got "Marcdu81" (april) !! Maybe the petition will have an effect !!

This is old news man! HTC already stated that if demand was high they would change views. I will not even bother posting the threads, go search yourself. Think before you post!

Sorry guys,but i've Phone to Htc France and they confirm : No wm6 for Trinity : I ask him this question : Why ? I wait again the answer !

I think you can wait a long time for nothing...There is no reason except "marketing" !!

You don't need a ROM from HTC. You can load the Dopod ROM to your device when it is released. If you need a French ROM, I'm sure that someone here will make one from the original Dopod D810 WM6 ROM.

i have an official email from Dopod Australia saying that they will be releasing a WM6 gps version soon (in the next couple of months).

Not quite the same getting your ROM from a company that re-badges these devices. I for one am way too lazy to change everything (boot splash etc) in the upcoming Dopod release to make it exactly like HTC.
I think a boycott of HTC phones is way overdue. Eten anyone?

Whilst I sympathise with you - judging by recent reviews I think you should be careful what you wish for...

No longer a product
If you look on the HTC website. The Trinity P3600 is not even listed as a product anymore.....

it has been months. dopod aus never got the wm5 gps rom. i don't know why they are taking so long... probably because customer support doesn't make them money. even o2 was faster in releasing wm6 to atom life (and the support is crap, i've had 2 o2's)
by the time they release wm6 with gps rom, the d810, wm6 and even maybe gps will be obsolete, and we will all have a new device.

I know, but then... that's even more a reason to release it if one of your children companies is about to beat you to it.
Call me picky, but I want all the ROM version information/splash/logos etc all to be HTC.
HTC seems to have some automated response for my questions, even if you ask WHY the trinity ain't on the list of phones expecting an update, they send a link to the press release.
Growing a little tired of HTC lately, they're even removing the infrared port from their trinity-successor, Kaiser. What will I do with my $40 worth of TV remote software? Damn it!

I doubt if Kaiser will be released shortly - It has a Qualcomm chip in it, see http://www.boygeniusreport.com/gallery/handsets/htc-kaiser-unboxing/?pid=668#picture_nav
The US ITC has banned imports on phones with Qualcom chip with immediate effect. See http://www.nytimes.com/2007/06/08/business/08phone-web.html

See below - not listed as product by HTC

Official HTC WM6 for P3600 downloadable tomorrow?

A renowed dutch telecom site has announced that the official HTC WM6 ROM update for the P3600 will be available for download on HTC europe site from tomorrow onwards!
for those of you understanding dutch:
http://www.connexie.nl/actueel/620/htc_updates_morgen_beschikbaar.html

Laat dit dit keer geen grap zijn! Het werd eindelijk eens tijd, thanks voor de mededeling.
Let this be no joke this time! Thanks for sharing

oh let this be true!!!

I'm a little tired of HTC promises.
They don´t care about their customers.
Need to see to believe it.

Quoting the official htp press news:
HTC is also offering WM6 upgrades for the most popular devices in its current range. This includes recently launched “messaging” products, which will enjoy the greatest benefits of Windows Mobile 6, such as the HTC Advantage, the HTC TyTN, the HTC S620, and the HTC P4350. The upgrade will also be available for the award-winning HTC P3300, plus some of our operator-branded devices.
Maybe tomorrow will be relased a wm6 upgrade for a branded version of trinity
... but I've an official unbranded P3600, which costs much more than an operator locked device...

Dudes...always so negative....
Let's just hope we'll taste the privilige of being blessed with a free new operating system at all...

Let's hope they do. The lack of WM6 was the only thing putting me off this device. I've been looking for a replacement ever since i shut my M600 in my car door.
I've been deciding between the P3600 and the Touch but I think I've made the right decision!

Me neither. But today in europe still has 13 hours... *crossing fingers*

True. It is common knowledge that most upgrades are being made between 12:00 and 13:00. It is due to human contribution of Carbon Dioxide (CO2). This in fact is the greatest deception in the history of science. We are wasting time, energy and trillions of dollars while creating unnecessary fear and consternation over an issue with no scientific justification. For example, Environment Canada brags about spending $3.7 billion in the last five years dealing with climate change almost all on propaganda trying to defend an indefensible scientific position while at the same time closing weather stations and failing to meet legislated pollution targets.
AAAAAARGGHHHHHHHHHHH!!! I want that rom!!

In Asia the update news was advanced in a week or less.
In Europe i don't think they will give us the update today.
But from them (HTC) that's normal.....

I have feeling that they will never give us the upgrade, but thats me

I think regrettably that we are going to wait for this rom another one moment!

Come on guys! Until midnight it's today!!!!!!

HTC Touch Diamond Rom

Hi There all Artemis gurus,
I have a question for all of you, are you guys developing the Touch Diamond rom for Artemis?

Kailash

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.

Touch Diamond official 6.5 ROM

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!
Thank you because you want to share with community.
I hope somebody will help you with porting.
That's the spirit!

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??
