Numerous TyTN II Phone Issues - Any advice? - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

I love the TyTN II phone, but as a new user of the phone and to this forum, I have found quite a few little quirks so far.
1) The first was the issue I posted regarding the sent emails not being stored in the sent folder if you use IMAP settings. This issue is still unresolved. I assume no one has a resolution for this?
2) The next quirk, has to do with the vibrate ring profile. Two issues I have encountered. (a) When you receive an email or sms and have the phone on the vibrate profile, sometimes, the vibrating wont stop and will consistently vibrate until you check the phone. (b) Sometimes the phone freezes completely on the vibrate setting to the point where the only way to restart it is to take the battery out. Any solutions or advice for both (a) and (b)?
3) I think this is a common issue based on the posts, but getting WMV files to play smoothly. I have tried the built in Windows Media Player and Coreplayer but it is still quite choppy. I assume that this is related to the drivers and we may expect an update from HTC later this month?
4) I have installed the recommended HTC camera and picture viewing software as suggested by this forum, however, every now and then when you take a picture and go to view it, the picture is actually corrupted and cannot be viewed on the phone or on my PC. I currently automatically store camera pics on my microSD card. This happens only every now and then. Any solutions?
5) This is not necessarily a TyTN II issue. I have downloaded the latest version of Opera Web browser and installed the latest adobe flash player. However, I still cannot view flash files. Does anyone know where exactly the "flash.dll" file needs to be copied to in order to view flash through Opera? I have tried the Opera folder in programs and also the Opera folder in applications with no success. I currently have Opera stored on my microSD card.
I think that this covers all my issues within the 3 weeks that I have had the phone. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

I will try and answer the questions that I think I know answers to.

I had my phone freezing periodically on the original AT&T ROM and upgraded recently to the February AT&T Rom and have not had a lockup since. The only NEW issue is that 5 seconds after you start a call your phone goes black no matter what your registry setting is set to.
3) I think this is a common issue based on the posts, but getting WMV files to play smoothly. I have tried the built in Windows Media Player and Coreplayer but it is still quite choppy. I assume that this is related to the drivers and we may expect an update from HTC later this month?
I have music files that I play all the time - I have a 4 gig card and have hundreds of files and they all play flawlessly with no skips or jumps or hesitation. I use a 64000 bit rate? What ROM are you using?

1) sent emails not being stored in the sent folder if you use IMAP settings.
Check MENU>MANAGE FOLDERS and make sure you are syncing your Sent Items folder.
2) (a) When you receive an email or sms vibrating wont stop (b) phone freezes vibrate setting
I have not experienced this.
3) WMV files to play smoothly
As indicated above, this is usually a bitrate issue. Please indicate the bitrate used in the files that are causing problems. The WMV format is native and plays well if there's enough CPU for the bitrate. I do not anticipate improvement in this area from the forthcoming video drivers.
4) HTC camera picture is actually corrupted
I do not experience this using the orginal ATT roms with camera version 4.02 bld 28288

I have the latest ROM available for my TyTn II phone 1.81.861.0 WWE.
Music files play fine, but it's the video files that are all jaggie. Its bitrate is 504 Kbit I think.
Regarding sent emails, no settings on the phone make a difference. All settings advised have been checked and none resolve this issue.

A call to action for all U.S. T-Mobile Wing users.

Hello fellow Wing users. I'm willing to bet that if you're reading this you're probably a little frustrated with your phone's lack of performance. The reason why I'm starting this post is to try and gather in one central location all the improvements that we as local community would like to see happend for the Wing. The idea is for you to complete this sentence:
"The T-Mobile Wing would be a better phone if..."
I have already contacted T-Mobile's customer service and gave them my suggestions,but I thought it might be a good idea to see what other users are looking for/need. Any idea is a valid idea, and after a month I'll draft a letter and we can all send it to customer service. And if we see more things that need to be added we can send it monthly with new updates. Sound good?
So this is what we have so far:
1. [email protected]
2. Official ROM
3. non-Buggy My Favs Program
4. Screen Lock w/Button Lock even when an incoming call comes in
I really love my wing.
The T-Mobile Wing would be a better pda if it had 3G, so i don't have to buy a new phone when t-mo's 3G networks comes out.
I'd love my wing as well. The only thing I can think of that I'd love to see is UMA support for [email protected] Not really a big issue for me, as I have no signal issues at home, but that's about it.
How bout a list of all the suggestions in the first post. The main thing I'm waiting for is a release of the official rom to fall back on.
I'm having email issues. My wife and I can not get the send/receive function to work with my home email accounts (Cox Communications). I'm using the Wing and she's on the Dash, both using WM6. We didn't have this problem with WM5 so what's the deal?
This phone would be better if I could get an answer from Tech support why I'm having this problem.
Updated rom with less memory leaks.
Hotspot @ Home
That's all I can imagine for right now. Wing's a pretty all-in-one device.
For developers:
Would love TOUCHFLO to be implemented into a rom.
Rom's with freed up memory
Less customization
Faster and more stable.
suggestions
for now, I guess these will be the 2 main things
1. A small-sized rom, with all t-mobile apps as optional installs
2. An actual RUU rom file for us all upgraders...

Like a T-Mobile Kitchen? That would be cool
Here here! I totally agree.
Here here! I totally agree.
Not sure if these are really T-Mobile's issues or WM6 issues or HTC issues, but ...
Alarms are Unreliable
...If I set an alarm, I can NOT be confident that it will sound. The WM6 alarms worked fine the first time I set it active. A day alter I changed the alarm time and alarm sound, and the alarm hasn't worked correctly since. I eventually installed a 3rd party alarm clock, and deactivated the WM6 alarms. The 3rd party one worked OK for a week, then it wouldn't work either! It only seems to work when the phone is On, and set to stay on (plugged in). If the phone goes into suspend mode over night, the alarm doesn't seem to play the alarm sound. It does wake up the device, and does flash the light, but no sound!
Volume Up/Down Buttons:
...Seems like the hardware volume buttons (which are my first choice for volume control) do not adjust volume for most 3rd party applications. In fact every 3rd party app that I've installed starts with sound blaring, and no WM6 volume control seems to control the volume. Only after entering the game, going to the game settings, and editing the game volume controls (if there are any!) can I change the volume. Why doesn't the hardware volume control actually control the speaker volume?
Listen to Music & Vibrate Mode:
...Seems like I can't set my phone to vibrate (through the quick ring/vibrate phone mode switching tool) and have volume for my music. When I set it to vibrate, the volume is set to 0. When I trun the volume up for my music, the ringer switches from vibrate to ring.
NOTE: I really wonder if all these sound issues are related ... ? It seems to me that there are a variety of volume settings, and a variety of controls to adjust these volume settings. Ringer volume, in call volume, speaker volume. , mute/vibrate mode. There is the hardware button, there is a software volume slider, many apps have an additional volume sliders. It seems like some *other* internal volume setting is getting adjusted (other than the main volume controls) and all programs (not the phone or ringer) are affected by this.
Locked Screen with Call:
...With the screen lock enabled, and the phone in suspended mode, an incoming call wakes up the phone and activates the two phone buttons. Every time the incoming call is answered as I am pulling the phone from the phone case ... !! This really sucks because I don't want to have to answer every call. If I don't remove the phone from the case, the calls are still answered just by the pressure of the case on those buttons.
Music Player Library:
...The Windows Media player Library automatically loads up all sorts of ringtones and WM6 sound files (that are not in My Music or My Videos folders)?? There is seemingly no settings to prevent this? manually removing them asks you to really delete the file (dangerous), and has to be repeated every time you reload the Library? I ended up using a new media player that has more settings and isn't so stupid.
User Modes: (not an issue, but a desired feature)
...I have found the need for 'usage modes' for the phone. I mean things like 'phone mode', 'internet mode', 'music/movie player mode'. Somethng that would enable the appropriate device settings to facilitate using some program without the screen turning off, or auto-suspending.
...I know you can manually go through all your settings and enable/disable the auto-suspend, change the backlight, change the volume/ring type, etc. in order to use the Wing as an MP3 player, phone, or news reader ... but different usage modes would seemingly be a *must have* for anyone who really uses these different functionalities one after the next.
... for example, as an MP3 player I want the device to stay on (no auto-suspend), the back light off after 30 sec, and vibrate only ringer, and music volume adjustable (only makes sense). BUT if I get an incoming call, I don't want the backlight shutting off after 30 seconds anymore! OR if I close the MP3 player and want to read my email or RSS news feeds, then I want the ringer back on, the device to auto-suspend after 5 minutes, and the backlight to stay on that long too.
...It is time consuming to be constantly swapping settings back and forth, trying to remember what needs to be changed. I feel like I spend more time tinkering with settings then actually getting good use out of the Wing. Sometimes I only have 5 minutes to read news or play a quick Sudoku game, and don't want half that time wasted futzing with settings.
...Maybe there is 3rd party software for this, but I haven't found any as of yet.
Business Contact Manager Pocket PC / Contacts Button on TMobile Wing
Thanks for this thread. I think we should also post replies when members post questions about their needs....
I like my Wing and I am trying to keep it clean - minimal software. Having said that there are some things I would like to remove / change....
I have installed business contact manager pocket pc - which sync's with my business contacts in Outlook. The problem I have is that one of the Today screen soft button (just above the ok button) points to "contacts" and not business contacts. I am wondering if anybody knows how to get this button to point to the business contacts. I do not want to install new software - I think this is a registry edit type fix. Any help will be appreciated.
I would also like to see a new forum category for all posts regarding Wing and/or WM6 professional. A lot of the threads deal with older OS's and I am concerned to install software written for WM5 and older. Also you find WM6 posts buried under different devices, etc...
This is the only way I know how . . .

See attatched and it's the 'official' T-Mobile applet so . . . . .
Don't hold your breath for T-mobile 3G . They only have a little bit in Manhattan (apparently) and they were saying early this year that it would be rolled out in August and 1 week away and nothing so far

RUU updater
T-Mobile Wing would be a better phone if they released the RUU updater with the stock version of the ROM that comes on the Wing!!
When do they plan on doing that?
I'd mainly like to see a faster CPU (preferably keeping the dual core, so the radio stuff is independant) and more onboard RAM/ROM space.
Then, there is the feature T-Mobile announced recently -- a special box that goes onto people's home LANs, where people can make voice over IP calls, and have it automatically handoff to and from the cellular network. Calls made on the wireless at home are free, even if the call gets handed to the cell network.
Of course, I'd like to see a RUU ROM file, as well as a "bare/clean" ROM from TMO, providing pretty much WM6, and the basic T-Mobile network customizations, as a starting base to work from.
How about having the extra storage space built in to the phone instead of having to buy an sd card?
How about [email protected] for the Wing?
Now here's a GREAT Idea! Hotspot @home for the Wing - god knows it'd take little to no-effort for them to allow/enable us to utilize this . . . . .
My wife switched over to T-Mobile cuz she wanted the Sidekick (bleh) so she offered to get me the Wing...I really didn't like how slow and sloppy the phone's interface is. Still don't like how slow it is but I've warmed up to the phone since it's so handy. But I do wish that the apps where not so buggy and was more customizalbe. Like customizing the homepage to have using only icons for certain things or framing some parts of the homepage so that you can view different info without having to leave the homepage and watch my phone akwardly blink to the next screen.

That is an issue with Cox. Recently alot of ISP's have locked their outgoing email to be only able to send from approved IPs. T-Mobile right now is working on getting added to those. Dont worry about it being 6.0, that was just a coincidence.

The ITCs ban on 3g chips is probably the real culprit behind the 3g launch delay. Why launch 3g when you cant even get any 3g phones imported??
!st letter going out on Friday
Hey everyone, I just wanted you to know that out first letter is going out on Friday. If you have any other ideas please add them.
SIP please . . .
how about giving us the built-in ability to use SIP/VoIP that WM6 provides . . BACK to us . . .

[SOLVED] Kaiser: Ringtone delay

Update: Solved!
Try your simcard in another (non-pda, non smartphone) cellphone.
If there is still the same delay, then its a providerproblem and you should contact your service hotline. In my case, this was the solution!
If the delay only occurs on your WM5 / WM6 device:
Then THIS here is the solution for you:
check this registry key: HKCU\\Control Panel\Sounds\RingTone0\script
simply change existing "3"'s to zeros... this string defines what the phone should do when a call comes in (a=begin script, r=repeat script, p=play ringtone, v=vibrate, w=pause, f=flash, c=volume)
in most cases, this should have been the solution for you.
if there exit still any delay problems:
try a wma standard ringtone which is stored in the phones main memory (NOT storage card). If this is the solution, then transform your desired ringtone into this format and move it into mainmemory.
(Addtionally you should be sure that there is no silence at the beginning of the ringtone itself... of course *g*)
I hope this helpful, good luck

(Original Post)
Hi!
It looks like an old problem is back: the famous 3-4sec. delay of ringtones on incoming calls: The caller hears 3 to 4 "rings" while the kaiser which receives the call stays sleeping/silent and starts ringing with a delay (as mentioned 3-4 "rings").
Device Info:
HardSPL, Super CID, unlocked
Radiorom R 1.27.12.11
Protokollversion: G 22.45.88.01H
D 1.56.00.00
ROM Version: 1.56.112.4 (09/01/07) (german/Austrian T-Mobile )
Anyone got a solution so far?
I tried tweaks2k2, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=258109&highlight=ring+delay and playing around with different ringtone files as well - but no improvement.
Any hints are highly appreciated.
PS: Beside this one, Kaiser is really rocking!
I think its pretty normal
Its not a GSM , kaiser must launch an application to start ringing, that just takes time, the more tools you install, the slower the application starts.
Try not to install to many programs in memory background, tweak your htc....
Of course you are right with the fact that Kaiser is no GSM and needs an app for that - but I am pretty sure that this is not the real problem: On Hermes we had the same problem which could be solved (see Schaps ROM) with the same apps / ringtones installed.

I have been using HelmiC's Clean/BigStorage version and I have had no problems with the ringtones. I have even tested it multiple times and it starts ringing at the very first ring. Do you have your ringtones on the phone or the storage card? If latter, try placing the ringtons on the phone (\My Documents\).
Hi! Thanks for your idea, und yes my ringtones are of course in the main memory for performance issues. As well I tried different formats (wav e.g.) with no improvement.
Any other statements to my problem? Are there other Kaiser ROMs which have the same problem or am i the only lucky one?
For your information: I tried tweaking the registry:
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0
Originally, my Kaiser had av0pw3r as Scriptvalue... I tried apr and av0pr but no improvement...
Any suggestions / comments?
(PS: Yes: tried different ringtone formats, ringtones are NOT on the storage card)
I had the same problem on the 8525 using MP3 files as ringtones. I converted my ringtone to a WAV file and the delay was much less. On my 8925, I'm using the same WAV ringtone file (in main memory) and my delay is usually just one ring on the callers end.
Which ROM are you using?
(btw.: tried of course different formats - wav, wma, mp3 -> all the same delay)
Machine: Original HTC TyTN2
ROM: 1.56.407.3, german
RADIO: 1.27.12.11
Provider: T-Mobile Austria
Ringtone: I'm using the standard ringtone from rom.
On my machine there is a delay of 1 ring until the Kaiser turns on and with the 2nd ring the Kaiser plays its ringtone. So I think this is fully normal.
I think you are all on the wrong track re ringtones...
The OP's actualy problem is that his device takes too long to actually wake on receiving a call.
I would bet $10 that it will be down to an application installed on the device that is screwing with its phone app responsiveness.
so there is no delay on plain devices with htc rom?
Is the ringtone present in main memory or on the sdcard ?
Maybe moving the ringtone to the main memory solves a bit of the problem.
On my TytnII the problem doesn't occur but the ringtone is placed in the main memory.
Simple to prove whether it is a ringtone. Just change the ring to one of the built in ones. If the device still delays waking on incoming calls, then you know its something else...
As mentioned in the opening post, the ringtone is on main memory and i tried standard tones too.
So what about your delays? Do you have one or not on your ROMs?
Is there an SCI (Slot Cycle Index) equivalent on 3G systems? On my Apache through Verizon (CDMA), lowering the SCI (how often your phone polls the tower for incoming calls) fixed this issue. So if there is an equivalent here, we should look into that.
Does anyone know how to get to the Kaiser's provisioning screen so I can check this out?
I have the same delay of 1 ring, then the kaiser wakes up and starts to play the ringtone.
Checked
I have just checked the delay on call arrives, and only 1 second.
I have optimized WMA (whichever little, better) file on \windows\rings
I my hermes i have more delay that in my Kaiser. And the cause in my hermes was related to the time the Hermes took to switch on. This time is lower in the Kaiser. When you press the On button, the Kaiser switch on quickly. See this posts on hermes section http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1440403&postcount=266 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1461092&postcount=406 for refference.
If you have notifications on wake-up, this can cause delay on the switch on when a call arrives, so take care of this too.
So no significant delay for me.
Hmm... "Slot Cycle Index" is a nice hint - i will have a closer look to this.
For the other ideas: Of course i am using an optimized WMA ringtone - stored in main memory - too.
In fact i encounter this delay of 3 rings even when my phone is switched already on... - and i guess thats not normal.
I got a bunch of applications installed - but the same like on my Hermes where I didnt had these delays. So if there are no other ideas i will try to hardreset and figure out if the problems occur with a plain german ROM too.
If not, then i will install application by application and give feedback which one did the delay.
I didn't check it with calls yet. But with SMS i noticed that my screen goes on, and then after 2secs the sms-tone goes off. So there's definately a delay.

Voice Command Quitting

I am running a tilt that is giving me the message "voice command has quit due to low memory" a few seconds after pressing the VC button. I have an 8gb Sandisk micro card in it with about 2 gb of music and the remainder is movies. Voice command will generally work fine with the card removed.
When viewing the memory page and starting Voice Command with the card in the slot, available memory goes from about 68mb free to about 66mb free, nothing close to wiping out the memory
Originally when this started I could clear out the IE history and it would be fine - no such luck anymore.
I have gone through the Kaiser Tweaks turning card management stuff on and off and have found no combintion that helps.
Is this an irreperable problem with large cards and voice command, or is there some registry hack that can help me? Not much on this subject on the forums, I hope I am not the only one experiencing this...
Thanks
Which version of Voice Command / ROM are you running?
Voice Command 1.5 does not work properly with WM6.1 ROMs.
I'm using version 1.6
I just bought it about 2 weeks ago.
It worked fine for the first week, adding nothing of significance to the storage card or installing additional software. What set it off was downloading a large file over WiFi directly to the storage card. I immediately deleted it and checked the disk over in windows, but it still kept happening. clearing out the memory worked for a day or two, now nothing will stop the error aside from removing the memory card.
Also...
The ROM is the 6.0 ROM shipped with the Tilt.
Here's a few things to try:
1) Uninstall / Reinstall Voice Command (kind of obvious, probably already tried)
2) Backup your data on the SD card, and then format it
3) Perform a hard reset on your Tilt and start over.**
**Note: This step will erase EVERYTHING on your device. You can use a program called PIMBackup to save your contacts, call logs, appointments, text messages, and much more. You can then restore them once the hard reset is done.
If you make it to step 3 and do not know how to do a hard reset, check out the Wiki link in my signature.
MSVC 1.6 Low memory problem
I am having this same problem of the low memory error ever since I installed a cooked WM 6.1 ROM with MSVC 1.6 baked into it. Since then, I have flashed several WM 6 ROMs on my HERMES and the same problem always comes up.
I never had this problem with the MSVC 1.6 since I first bought it over a year ago. Now no matter what ROM I flash, when I install my purchased MSVC 1.6, this low memory error plagues me.
This is not just a Kaiser problem, guys. Thought I would let you know. There have been a number of posts in the Hermes forum about this. It's driving me nuts. No solution found yet, and I have searched and searched here and on the internet.
If I find a solution, I will come back and let you all know.
Ben
Well...
I did the card reformat and replaced all the data, and it worked...for a while. Now it is back to doing the same thing. I am going to retry the format, try it for a few days and progressively add files to it. If number of files is not the problem, I'll reset all the way back. I have been using the tilt a lot for listening to streaming audio, maybe that has something to do with it (temp files in places I can't find, or heat buildup?)
Good to know my device is not just a lemon at least - Ben, does your problem happen all the time or only with the storage card installed?
Thanks for the help!
Philly Fan in your Kaiser forum also suffered with this issue, and I PM'ed him to see if he found a solution.
Taking my card out, MSVC seems to run without giving me the "has quit because of low memory" error. I don't understand what the memory card would have to do with this, but there you go.
Next I will try reformatting the card, and let you know how it goes. I presume you added programs to your device after reformatting, right, and then the problem returned? Did you install one or more of those programs onto your SD card?
I wonder if doing that is causing our devices to cause this problem? Funny it only now is happening to me after a year of using MSVC.
I will be back to you later on this. I hope someone else chimes in. This problem is really bizarre.
Ben
Reformatted my storage card, reinstalled MSVC 1.6. So far so good. Thanks NotATreoFan and Jaeger for the help. Will advise if any further issues.
Regards,
Ben
so far my second reformat is still working...
I have not wiped the memory on the PDA though - I have only been wiping the storage card. I have no programs installed to it and I haven't installed any new software during the time that I have been experiencing this problem. I'm replacing all the same exact files when I reformat.
There are a few things that I did on the tilt between the time that voice command worked and when it stopped again (from intensive wireless streaming of large playlists, to updating the WM library that packs all that metadata crap on the card) I'm going to do some troubleshooting this week and try to isolate something as the cause, see how many days I can go before it quits.
I really hope someone at MS is noticing these posts...
Voice command gone wild ( not hot )
I have a tilt. at&t rom ver. 1.57.502.2 radio ver 1.27.12.11. 3 day ago I loaded my 2 gig card with music all the way to only 3.3 MB remaining. I deleted some songs and have about 131 MB now. ever since then any contact vioce command i request loads programs that also have voice commands assigned. I would like to keep the songs but I need voice command more. So I guess I delete most of the songs and see if this helps Voice command. If It fixes my problem I will post again the results. JJ
I had this problem too. The solution was to turn off media player voice command so I can't use it for music control. It keeps a voice tag in memory for every song so if you have too many it runs out. VC was never designed for that many songs since cards bigger than 2 GB are new.
vc gone wild more info
Wilhelm I did not have voice assigned to any of my music players. but I did have it assigned to pictures & video application. maybe same rule applies. Anyway when I looked to see if I assigned VC to windows Media or others players I did notice that all the contacts that I HAD assigned VC to were no longer listed. I reassigned five contacts again, and now it is working again. So this looks like a fix but need to figure why it happened in the first place? Hope this helps out there. JJ

Multiple issues with Tilt and WM 6.1

Ever since upgrading to WM 6.1, I've had a number of issues with my Tilt. I can't receive MMS, I can't play Xvid videos (with TCPMP or TCMP), and my GPS signal takes longer to lock. This is a whole lot to give up for just threaded SMS (I haven't really seen anything else that's improved).
Is there any where I can get WM 6.0 reset, or a at least a lead on how to fix these issues (att mms settings cab didn't work, changing the default proxy settings didn't work for mms either).

If you do a google search for ATT MMs settings, one of the sites is directly from ATT Support and resolved my issue. It sounds like your rom came with a new radio, try flashing 1.65.24.36 as your radio. made a hell of a difference all around for my phone, especially for my GPS
Yes one of the things AT&T recently changed is you not longer need the [email protected] username and CINGULAR1 password for their MMS. Also if it is set to proxy through wap.cingular turn that off as well and make sure you turn on IP Header compression

I've actually spent hours on the phone with ATT support and we still haven't been able to resolve the issue. Something about when I turn the phone off, the settings end up going back to default (with the username and password to log for MMS.

I'm an extreme newbie. Where would I get the radio? How would I flash it? Just like the Roms?
Also, any idea on what's going on with the ability to play divx movies? TCPMP and TCMP have the same issue. They display the first few frames and then it freezes. The sound plays just fine, though.

If the settings keep resetting then I would suggest flshing a your rom again or try a new rom. Go to the Kaiser Rom Development forum under kaiser and you will find all the wiki's your little heart could desire including radios, flashing, and all the good stuff that comes with modifying your phone. I would try coreplayer to play your movies, I find TCMP as primitive and unreliable.

MMS Problem a lot of people experienced this.

MMS are not coming until I won't wake up the phone. This is very annoying issue.Sometimes it wakes up but more often doesn't. I'm using original newest HTC rom 2.03. Any solution and opinion for that ??
This is a known issue which HTC fixed with a new ROM 3 days ago (16/01/2009) - for network-free/unlocked Diamonds at least:
Improved Functions and Fixes
1. When you launch the Camera while the system is working on other programs, the preview screen may become black.
2. When playing a video, sometimes a portion of the video will be cut off a little bit.
3. Fixes Audio playback problem with the speaker. Specific issues: sometimes the music will turn off and on after 10 minutes, or there is a buzzing sound or no sound at all.
4. Fixes the problem of not being able to receive MMS when in standby mode.
5. When launching music via the Music tab on TouchFLO 3D, the sound may intermittently turn off for a second and come back on.

If your Diamond is network locked the download will not work so you will have to wait for your network's updated ROM.
HTH.
I have diamond sim free unlocked I bought it directly from HTC Distributor in my country.I'm not able to download this rom. What version is it??? -can I take it from somewhere else? I have HARDSPL etc ?
MMS work with the new ROM.
But the MMS notification has no sound and no vibration, even if checked in the settings.
Did you also experience this ?

If you are talking about Polish distribution, seems there is no matching ROM yet. As I am interested in it too, I asked HTC support about date of release for my phone. They said they'll look into it.
I put hardSPL and upgraded to the newest 2.03 rom and MMS are working but I need s2u2 to lock my phone and with that it stops working.tried all possible s2u2 settings , exception,writing to A_C etc. and nothing. I don't wanna rotate my phone,shaking,light lock etc just wanna proper normal keylock like s2u2 does...
