I doubt there is even any "international warranty" sets available for the Diamond.

The problem about buying those imported sets is that, they might be cheaper but in case there is any problem, you need to send it back to their original country for warranty. Else, if you send it locally, then you will need to pay for the fixes, which in the end, wont be worthy for the cheaper price. Except for the warranty, i think all of them are exactly the same.

Any screenshot etc and link to have a look at the 6.5? Would love to give it a try

Btw guys, how to disable program from launching itself from startup? THanks.

Damn X.E.D, thats so tempting. Is it hard to do it ourself? Can provide any guide on doing that?

One question here, the WinMo 6.5 is it meant for TD in the first place? Would we be able to get it via HTC?

Yea, would really love that they put it available on the TD as well. The UI is just simply awesome. else, might be tempted to port over to TD2

Well, i believe they are basically the same except for the warranty. So, i dont think there is a need to be worried. But mind me asking, does the price differs alot? The thing is, u need to remember if sending over for warranty to Singapore is off now trouble to you, then there should be no problem in getting Imported Sets. Regarding the GPS, there wont be any problem. Heck, i can even install Singapore's map into the GPS just that it wont be able to locate me

Well, the 2.03 rom is the latest firmware available directly from HTC. If you want to upgrade that, download it via HTC website. You will need to key in the Serial Number of the phone. Basically, just follow the instruction listed on the site. If it says that you are not allowed to download it, switch to another region. If your's is local SIS, its basically either Asia Pacific region or SEA region.

Do not worry about updating the firmware. The exe downloaded from the website is very easy to use. Just follow whatever instruction listed on the program as you progress and it will be done in about 10minutes. They are just basically plug the USB cable to the PC, active ActiveSync and launch the firmware program and everything will be done. Again, just follow the instruction.

Just enjoy the TD for sure

Not sure anyone notice this but i had problems with the touchHD version keyboard though. I am using Full QWERTY and when in landscape mode in part of the keyboard is gone to the side of the screen. Keys such as the enter key etc cant be used. Anyone had the same problem?

And is there any other better version out there? I really love the arrow keys on the HD keyboard but its not usable in the landscape mode on my side though.

Damn X.E.D, don't tempt us

Please HTC, release an official 6.5 ROM for the TD

I dont think it void as well. I had mine HardSPL before as well (not sure whether this is same with flashing or not ) and still got mine warrantied as long as its returned to its normal SPL before warranty

Well, becareful when flashing the ROM. Heard from Baronic that it is very difficult or no way to unbrick a TD. Maybe you can ask him directly

I believe HardSPL is a different thing. Its like you need to perform HardSPL to your phone before you could use Cooked Roms instead of the Original Ones. So, hardSPL is like an intermediate process to port the way to use cooked rom. You definitely need to ask Baronic on all these stuffs


Bro, you have been using the 6.5? Any links to have a look on the 6.5 and is it hard to flash it to that? Really wanted to use it if the battery life is that good.

LOL..Never thought of hearing that from a TD user

I am also seriously tempted but thinking that they might release the WinMo6.5 to the TD, i might as well wait for it to be released officially

And guys, is it worthy to port from TD to TD2? TD2 seems tempting though

Welcome to the world of memory leak Anyway, try flashing it to the latest 2.03 firmware. The memory leak issue wasn't so bad for me, but at times, i am still getting about 60 - 70% memory usage even though nothing is running

Or else, try flashing it to Custom ROMs. Some people do say it helps more as well Else, get CleanRam. Nice lil application to help clear some memory but still, best choice is to soft reset like 3 days once

memmaid? Never try that before though. Will try and see whether its better or not

1. Well, as far as i can see, the TF3D can only display a MAX of 25 message but if you go directly to the inbox, there are more there

Well, its a good program to have but being honest, i rather reset my phone. There are times when my phone memory reaches 70% on idle and even a thorough scan can only get me to around 64% which is still far from idle. So, if you phone are just barely having memory leak, like <60%, then this program can help but if its excessive already, then its better to soft reset.

Copy the cab file into the phone and install. Then, launch the program and it will automatically clean up the ram and free some memory.

If its hard-reset (restore factory settings), then yes, you need to reinstall. But if its soft reset, then no, the software will still be there. YOu dont need a CD. Its just a cab file which is a freeware that can be downloaded.

All you need is to connect your phone to the USB and transfer the file to a directory in your TD, then locate the file, launch and it will be installed automatically.

Soft reset is just restart your phone. That's all. Turn it off, wait a while, then turn it on again

Just copy the CAB file to ANY folder in the phone. Remember the location, then using your phone, browse for the folder using the File Explorer in the Programs. Click on that file then install. Thats all you need to do.

Are you on 2.03 firmware? If you want to check what firmware you are at, restart your phone and during loading, you will see a red colored wordings at the bottom right corner.

On my 2.03 firmware, i am getting about 50 - 52% usage on every soft reset and will rise up to a max of 68 - 70% in about 5 days of usage. Thus, i soft reset every 3 days.

The D part is the firmware. Means you are having the 1.35 firmware which is like the first version out there. That is why you are facing real bad memory leak.

Go and flash the firmware. YOu can either send it back to SIS to flash it or just do it yourself. Go to HTC website, go to the support section and download the firmware from there. Just follow the steps listed there and you will be good.


Regarding the FreeRam, like what leoboom said, first extract the rar/zip file, then ONLY transfer the cab file (.cab extension file) into your phone. Then only launch the program from there.

Anyone here received an email from HTC recently about a new firmware for the TD? I got one yesterday from HTC about a new firmware but when i go to their site, the latest is still 2.03 though.

But alot of patches available on their website. For some bugs i guess.

You cant talk about warez here


Anyway, just realise i scratched my LCD on my Diamond. Damn, for so long i tried to avoid using SP because they are just to fond to dust but damn...Maybe its time for me to get another SP again
