most custom rom's are extremely smooth.

I am using the newset update from SE on a Generic ROM. No issues here.

thank you! this phone looks like one of the best winmo phones out there, and to top it off it was made by sony ericsson, which is in my opinion, one of the best phone makers!

sorry guys..just curios..why my device information show that storage size is only 266.36mb? is it normal??

In my settings->memory
I have
total: 281.71MB
In Use: 210.29MB
free: 71.42MB

Help : 8/16 GB Diamond .. WM7??

1.Does diamond support Windows mobile 7 ?
2.Do U Think htc will release 8/16 GB Diamond?
what a random question. thres no evicence for either, but i doubt the storage upgrade. theyve done that with the advantage a year on, and everyone thinks its a waste of money.
but wm7, if its not officail, id guess the cooks will port it
Rory
I wouldn't rule out the storage upgrade. If HTC want the Touch Diamond to compete with the iPhone, they will have to do storage upgrades. Also, because I'm buying it, you know a better version is going to be released - it's my bad luck. (My Touch is a good example).
This may be a silly question but has anyone actually opened up their Diamond to see if it is possible to increase the Storage Memory? eg could it be possible to add/swap out the 4GB for more?

If you make a search on this forum (not only in Diamond section), you would see, that I've done a big share of contributions, namely on the Trinity ...
So, next time, instead of bragging, make a search first, and don't feed these non-sense threads...
HastaSSSS
There is evidence for WM7, just knowing M$, whatever we know now will be completely different from what is released, and it'll be released two years late...
I suspect HTC will release newer versions with more storage, but there is no evidence for that ATM.
isnt the touch pro basically the diamond with upgrades and sd slot for up to 64gb (so far)?
if any wm device is upgradeable, the diamond is a sure fire even if not officially supported

finally a decent response to my question. Now who has taken a look under the hood of their Diamond to see for eaxmple where on the board the 4GB memory chip is and how accessible it is. Is there any space under the cover to connect up another memory card...
The Touch Pro is too big and I don't need a keyboard. The only thing stopping me from getting a Diamond right now is the 4GB memory...

SDHC only supports up to 32gb... they'll come out with a new standard for 64gb chips I bet.

Last time I ask.... time for a new phone : (

I've asked this a few times but to no avail. It's not anyone's problem but mine but I don't know how to fix it.
I've only done two mods to the phone.
The disabling of the auto-attach.
And the Boost TFL3D Performance mod#1 on the mod list.
My problem is simple.
The phone lags....
For example, when you click the people icon and then click your contact list, the damn phone takes forever to pull up on the screen.
The reason I sold my Touch Cruise is because this phone had a faster processor.
Please, can anyone tell me how to increase the speed of this slow azz phone?
If I can't do anything about it, I'm buying an iphone or something else.
Thanks much,
Mark
Certainly the best way to speed up the phone is to flash a custom ROM to it. There are many out there that are MUCH faster than the stock ROMs. I highly recommend Dutty's V1.2 rom, but there are certainly others.
Marky Marky Read read mate first
I have owned most HTC phones and after tweaking this is my fave and fastest so far...
Firstly what what ROM version are you using?
First post. Glad to meet u all.
I had official Vodafone spanish ROM until yesterday. My last phone was a QTEK s100, so no Wireless, no GPS, no Gsensor, no light sensor, no WM6.1, but it was fine, speed was OK. Diamond had poor speed compared to S100.
I flashed with the new official ROM from HTC and it seems a new phone. Try it.

Cool, I highly recommend flashing to Duttys ROM 1.2 at the Mo 1.3 should be with us in the next few days - I understand your frustration m8. I have been using these toys for years and they always need tweaking (but thats become half the fun)
What I will say is that you will se significant increases in speed from 1.37 which in honesty I thought was ****e and bug ridden so no surprises at your dissapointment. We are still a little way away from the perfect ROM but every time gets closer - rest assured. I think you will be pleasantly surprised after flashing to Duttys.
If you need anything else just shout shout.
NB. enable all the power management functions in schapps config and your battery will also last a hell of alot longer.

Sorry my bad. I was referring to the thread starter
The latest ROM is 1.93 - and even without additional tweaks, it speeds up the diamond significantly. Make sure you flash that before tweaking and than complain again.

Thanks Ta, just an update.... I installed (and donated) to Dutty's new ROM. All I can say is THANKS... Great install, great ROM, works fantastic.
Now if I could just change the "video call" softkey for "contacts" in the phone screen, I'd be super happy.
Thanks again,

Go here and download the softkey manager(it's free) http://www.fantasticbytes.com/downloads.php (make sure you tick the "HTC Diamond Mode" checkbox on the main screen).
Doesn't that soft key manager just change your today screen softkeys? I think the OP was referring to the dialer screen soft keys...

Can't help you but hope you're sure other phones will be faster. I thought with the 500 MHz processor in my Mio A701 it would be very fast compared to other WM phones at the time just to realise they were all slow.

Touch Pro Overclocked - Overclocking the X1 - is it finally possible?

Anyone managed to find this software and give it a go?
The Touch Pro has finally been overclocked.......
Anyone care to try this on their X1?
http://www.nuerom.com/BlogEngine/post/2009/09/06/Touch-Pro-running-at-800MHZ.aspx
does not work, forces the device to auto restart.
However, the creator is working hard to get one that works
Even if a X1 version is released, the only thing you might achieve is to fry your cpu and destroy the device years earlier than its expected lifetime.
How about Temp and Battery life, is it worthed ?
ok this OC tool worked for me today i had x1 at 768mhz and it was fast but then i started an program and the phone froze so.. there is still alot of work on that app..
the phone froze or restated...

Hi all.
I tried to install the neucontrol software but when I run the cab my xperia says that the program was uninstallable.
I was using a custom rom, the energy rom, standard version. I haven't tried installing it with a different rom.

As the same arguement for Pc overclocking, the lifespan of a cpu is many years beyond what you are likely to use it. I.e the phone could last for less than 5years for all I care, 2years in fact as Ill upgrade to xperia 2 so I might has well "fry" it and gain a faster smooth and more enjoyable experience in return for a shorter lifespan.

I prefer to keep my tech working even after I stop using it. After all, you never know when you might need a backup device. Different points of view about this, I guess.
I agree with orelsi..I'd like my device to be in good condition even though I won't be using it anymore...you never know, you might come up short on dough with your plans of buying the x2 or x3 and selling ur x1 might give some additional cash for u to finally buy that device...of course if it's fried, no one will buy it or u'll only be able to sell it dirt cheap, for parts or whatever

Indeed, this is very true
on my x1 freze quickly
somebody thought about downclocking the cpu? maybee some MHZ less could double the akku duration??!! =)
this would be mutch more interesting fo me instead overclocking this littel cpu xD
greetz
You would make the phone useless, for anything else than calling. I would prefer multitasking and good performance over battery any day.
waw it worked for me...
i install the tool and my phone way connected to pc with activesync and it ran at 800 mhz ,i was like (damn thats how the phone should run,smooth scroling in main menu ,benchmarked with sktools and got waw results ).
BUT when i took usb out of pc my x1 froze and i had to softreset.
and i couldnt run it again in my x1(now when i run it,it freeze or restart)
what a shame ,i hope the tool get stable so i can run x1 at 800.

[Q] Worth upgrading from original HTC Desire?

Hi folks, I have the original amoled sim free HTC Desire and I'm wondering if it's worth replacing it with an Incredible S? To be fair I probably wouldn't be considering doing this if it wasn't for the current deal at CPW.
What do you think?
Definitely this phone rocks....
The newer gen chipset makes a huge diff imo.

It has a full 1.1gb of internal storage available to the user.
You can use apps2sd on any froyo or GB ROM for any phone so you can use that if you like. I haven't had to yet and I have a ton of apps.
Seriously, this phone is pure win
I also came from the desire amoled and now the IS. Sure worth it! The newer sense and the phone just runs a bit smoother.

Hmmm, I have very poor phone signal here compared to the Desire. I've tried the GSM/WCDMA option too. Has anyone tried the 'foil' antenna boost trick?
Also just done a factory reset and I now have the 'software update available' message, installing it now.

What version were you on? What version is it after you installed the software update?
I don't have this at all, I actually find my signal pretty damn good. Might be because it is the canadian version of the inc s perhaps?
Software number is showing as 2.30.405.1, I don't know what is was on before.
I believe one of the things from the update you just installed was providing a better signal... I also did the foil thing when I was on froyo. Now I removed it and signal is doable.
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using xda premium
My phone signal might well be showing a bit stronger than it was before the update, I'll give it a few days and see how I get on with it.
The foil antenna mod is interesting, but I wonder if it has any negative effects, aren't antennas usually a specific size/ratio?
The antennas on this are on the phone cover. Try cleaning them.

2.2 on 2.1?

I know it probably isn`t a very smart question since i didn`t find anything on the subject but is there something like an emulator for the x8. After some time every custom ROM starts crushing lagging and so on. So I would spend my time customizing the Eclair if there was a way to run the newer apps on it....

So bad that they don`t support their own product because they aren`t selling it anymore, because its obvious that even with this hardware (real or not) it can run something newer if they customize it the right way....
