HTC Europe official announcement

Looks like today is the official announcement date for the Tytn II in Europe! Carriers for the UK are Orange, Vodafone and T-Mobile. No mention of GPS from the Orange rep but Voda and T-Mo both mention it explicitly. Will it be crippled under Orange, I wonder?

Confused i am

hi all
I am a bit confused ( dont take much these days) is the HTC TYTN II the Kaiser, as they look very similar and when i google it thats what i find..
also as anyone got one recently from t-mobile as i am due a upgrade and how much did they pay for it.
Cheers for the help
Neel

Yes the Kaiser was renamed the TyTN II. Not sure about your second question.

HTC Kaiser / HTC TyTn II / T-Mobile Vario III = all the same thing
(except the Vario looks cheap and nasty)

T-Mobile is a worldwide company and people from across that world read this forum. Which T-mobile are you talking about?

I'm referring to the UK variant.

Sorry, that wasn't directed at you, but at the OP.

i am in the UK

As far as I know Kaiser is/was the name given by HTC during the development of the device. It is now sold as the HTC Tytn II. TMobile UK are selling/will be selling this as the MDAvario III. Vodaphone UK will also carry this device as V165 or something similar.All of these devices are manufactured by HTC. Most providers will have their own customised ROM installed. Currently we are unable to CID unlock these devices and so we are stuck with default provider ROMs. Eventually I am sure Pof or some other genius on here will work out how to CID unlock them and then the fun begins with our own customised ROMs.

Yep they are all Kaisers = generic name for all of them
TyTn II is the one sold under the HTC name and then as said above you have all the other variants as well.

Difference Between The US and EU version

Hi Guys,
I would like to ask if anyone knows what the differences are between the US and EU models of th TYTN II.
I would like to know because I am thinking of buying a TYTN II from the US and will be using it in the EU
thanks in advance

If by "US version" you mean the AT&T Tilt, then the difference is: $300 less, no front camera for video calls, and no TomTom GPS software. At least that the big differences...

Hi,
thanks for your input. Actually what i mean is when I go to online purchase sites like expansys I find the below when searching tytn II
HTC TyTN II
version: US, GPS, Unlocked
HTC TyTN II Value Pack
version: UK, QWERTY, GPS
HTC TyTN II
version: FR, AZERTY, GPS, EU
I think that in the french version above the keyboard layout is also different.
Could it be difference is only in the dictionary and keyboard layout between US and EU?

The US TILT keyboard will be different (QWERTY but different function keys) - and you can always put in a different dictionary. The language settings are in the ROM, not specific to the phone version. If you don't care about the front camera and different arrangement of the function keys then save some cash and buy a TILT.

Dutch version

Hi all,
I'm new to the forum and to Windows Mobile. I'm planning to get a new Diamond 2 in The Netherlands. Searching I've found that I can get the MDA Compact V version from T-Mobile NL or go for the HTC Diamond 2 version on T for Telecom. My biggest concern is that I want to have the device in ENGLISH, does anyone from The Netherlands know which versions are sold here and which language they ship with?
Is it possible to change the language afterwards in case it comes in dutch? I've seen some threads talking about the need of flashing the ROM for this. I'm a really new to all this so I don't know if that is possible using official HTC ROMS or is something else...
I don't know if I make much sense, sorry again if I talk non-sense.
Thanks!

In almost every shop you can choose between the NLD (Dutch) version and the UK (WWE) version. Just ask at the shop.

Thanks, I'll try that. I had assumed that being in The Netherlands all shops will be selling only the Dutch version.

Sorry, but you can't chose between langages in the shops in The Hague, especialy at Bel Company. They don't care if you want an english version and they become very arogant about that. Best thing is to buy one in dutch if they don't want to provide one in english and ask nicely CMONEX to help you to change the language in english.

Thanks for the info iulnitu. I'll check on Saturday and see if I can get it in English. It's a bit strange that this happened to you at Bel Company. In their website they are announcing both version NL and UK, you can check here:

Anyway, I'll guess I'll find out personally this Saturday. Anyone with a similar experience?

pdashop.nl sells devices in NL en ENG. Other sites do too.

T-Mobile will probably only sell the Dutch device. If you want to get a WWE version you'll have to look at a HTC Touch Diamond 2 (Not MDA Compact V).

Different versions

Is there a way to identify the HTC touch diamond 2 for the UK from its box? I need to get the UK version and not the Hong Kong one. Is there a way to tell which is which from the box? I am talking about the unlocked version. Thanks

Any ideas? Anyone?
