planing to buy diamond can i use in AT&T?
Hello-
Yes you can, buy the USA version. Thats what I did, and it works just fine, way better than my old TREO PRO did.

Hi Guys,
I have a tri-band/edge Diamond for sale. It is not working for me here in Japan. Looking for $600 USD or BO. It is only 1 week old and in mint condition and is sim unlocked currently running Duddys latest Diamond ROM.
Any specific questions let me know. There is no GSM service here in Japan so this model wont cut it for me.
Thanks,
Ray
Sorry forgot to mention that you would need to also pay for shipping from Tokyo. About 30 bucks.
Thanks
Sorry for my bad english..
If i buy a touch diamond in united states can i use it in italy?!
Thanks a lot!!!
Only if you purchase an unlocked Diamond. Otherwise, you have to go through a big ordeal with your carrier (if you buy it from a carrier) to get the phone unlocked.
Is it even for sale in the US yet? I was under the impression that it was still being modified to work there.
If you do get one that is designed for the US, you won't be able to use it in most of Europe as it will be designed for different bands.
My wife wanted this phone so I am looking on the internet and run into newegg has one for sale $530.00 shiping included. Is this a HTC that you use Sim card? My wife has T-Mobile.....

Check it please to make sure I buy the right one...
Any suggestion for additional software to use..
Yes, the HTC Touch Diamond you are looking at uses SIM card, and T- Mobile is what I used, too. The model shown seems like an EU model (pics too small to tell), and the difference between EU and US model is summarized at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=432532. If you live in the US and you plan to use 3G data connection in the US, then you need to consider the US model, with AT&T however (NOT T-Mobile).
I strongly suggest you call and make sure the ROM has been upgraded to the newest (1.93) already. If not, you want to make sure it's HTC Touch Diamond P-3700 (UK origion) so that you can upgrade to the newest ROM by yourself if chosen to do later.
Be carefol, since both the US and the EU diamonds are incompatible with the T-Mobile US network. There is a long discusson about this in the forum (search it).
Does anyone know of someone who can modify my TYTN II to work on the T-Mobile USA 1700/2100 3g network . I am willing to pay to have this done. My phone is far superior than any 3g phones T-mobile USA has and also I hate to throw it out when there isn't a good replacement available.

Its not possible. Check the Touch Pro boards or the Diamond boards, or the Touch HD boards. Anyone in the US with the original European versions of those phones, can't use 3G here. Adding new bands has been discussed time and time again, with the answer being no.
if you want i can send you my at&t and you send me your TytnII 'cause i'm in italy and need to make videocalls, let me know if you want to, maybe i can give u some money bye

dear Forum
I am living in Switzerland, and i got from a US friend his "old" TP2 because he bought the new i-phone...
now i am here in Europe and can't use it because it only accepts T-Mobile SIM cards (which we don't have in Switzerland).
Moreover i am travelling quite often because of my profession and i'm usually buying local SIM's....
Does anyone know if there is a ROM which unlocks this device?
would be great if this also contains TomTom or CoPilot navigation as i own those licences arelady frommy previous device.
As I know there are two versions of TP2:
- the "normal" HTC
- the T-mobile version which got brownish color and lacks a front cam....
my question is specifically about the brownish T-mobile version.
thanks for your help

There is no ROM that will unlock your phone for you. You have to either call T-Mobile and get them to unlock the phone for you or ask your friend to call T-Mobile for the unlock code, OR you can pay to have it unlocked by providing the IMEI number to someone who knows how to unlock it. Also, ROMs generally do not come cooked with TomTom or CoPilot, so you'd have to install those separately. I'm sure if you looked around you could find the cab files to install them.
that's interesting... my old diamond came with simlock from a local carrier... after flashing it with an open ROM, the simlock was gone...
that's why I am asking if there is simlock-free ROM for this specific type of TP2...
for the "normal" one i saw plenty ROM's but because of the differences i am sceptic if they would work.
thx for ur hints
You don't need a ROM, you need to SIM-unlock your device. See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=555339
