Hi everybody,
I would like to get rid of my (german) O2 XDA Rom. However, I am a bit reluctant to do so, because I am afraid to brick my diamond.
Would be great im someone around Stuttgart (Germany) area could give some support (I would like to keep the TT7, btw)
If you have exerience with ROM flashing for diamond and willing to show me how it works I would like to spend a crate of beer for it
Please send me a PN and I will get in contact with you
Unless I am presenting ... my name is Nicola and I live in lagonegro (South Italy)... I hope to be able to give help in my little experience and knowledge regarding handhelds...
now you remove a curiosity... the pda O2 xda ignito is compatible with the Italian phone company? work in Italy? and you can update the ROM with an official or not htc diamond? thanks a lot... and sorry for my english...
Nicola
I would suggest the answers to all of your questions are yes. Most of the O2 handsets are SIM free - if for any reason this model is not then it can be unlocked to work on the italian networks
hello, thank you for your answer... I also wanted to know if actually this pda is good or not... it can be a viable alternative to diamond?
thank you
Its essentially exactly the same as the Diamond, with the exception that the back cover is flat and not bevelled.
From what I know this O2 Ignito is an HTC Diamond. So, it probably has a default O2 ROM on it, but the hardware is all the same.
Hi guys,
I am about to buy a HTC touch HD, but I live in the Netherlands and I dont speak dutch...
So before I spend a lot of money, i was wondering if it would be possible to find a way to change the operating system language form dutch to english (or French).
Since I am (really) a newbie, I would appreciate any link to a tutorial.
Cheers

Wait till the HardSPL releases. Flash English/French ROM and you're done
Thx a lot.
I have now 2 questions
What is a HardSPL (and how do I use it?) and
When is it gonna be released?
It was 3 questions actually
1. Read the wiki on Hard SPL (answers questions 1 and 2)
2. they are still working on the HSPL for the HD, see the sticky.. As soon as it is available you will notice it..
why don't you buy the www version? i am dutch and also speak it and i could choose the nl version and the www version, you can do that on many dutch sites.
If you want if for free (or a small amount) with a subscripion, some mobile-operators will only sell dutch version of HD.
not at PDAshop.nl for instance. But their phones are a bit more expensive then when you buy them in the shop...
Well I maybe could buy it online but I would have to pay a lot.
Here I am buying it with the KPN flexible contract, and I have the phone for free.
They told me that they were selling it only with the dutch version (which is not very logical when you see the number of foreigners in Holland who dont speak dutch...)
I could have the HTC Diamond in English but I d rather wait a little bit for the HardSPL to be released.
By the way I tryed to look on the wiki to see how to use the HSPL, but I did not find it, if someone could give me the link I would appreciate it.
Thanks

Just buy a WWE version. In the netherlands most shops sell both, also with a KPN contract. Check for example this shop. I think that is the best way to go for you, other than waiting for a hardspl
This website looks interesting but its in dutch!! And from what I have understood if I wanna have the phone for free with the KPN flexible, I need to take the 45euros/month.
In the shop they give it to me for 27.5 euros/month with internet included...
But thanks anyway for the help
I can't imagine the HD for that amount of money! I think it's without data use, the costs of it will be on top of the € 27,50.
No! everything is included!!
Thats why I couldnt believed it at first too!
And thats also why I am gonna wait patiently for the HSPL to be released
What you can also do is go for the 45 euro option...you will have internet and all..
After 3 months you can downgrade your subscription for free to any amount you want. Even the 20 euro one.
Nofi.. But how about you learn the language of the country you are living in? like all foreigners should do..
And how about you teach me dutch in two weeks?
Did I tell you that I didnt want to learn dutch?
This is where i bought a HD at a very sharp price; it's also available in English (2 weeks delivering time)
http://www.2call.nl/telefoons/htc/touch_hd_en
The site is in dutch, but you must have some dutch ppl round you that are willing to help i hope, they're not all jerks..
Thanks for the post. I live in Amsterdam and had the same issue. Tried all stores and they all looked at me like I am crazy for asking for an English version. Anyhow, not sure if you already got one, but I tried the suggestion and went with www.2call.nl. Got mine in less than 2 days. They have the EN version in stock now. T-Mobile has a great deal now, 2 years contract, 29 euros per month for 300min, and free internet for 2 years...
Hi guys im hoping you can help me please
I heard somewhere that you have to do something special before you can flash an Orange branded Handset
Is this actually the case and what do i need to do if it is.
Thanks for your help
Read the sticky in ROM development section. Don't do anything if you don't understand what you are doing.
After flashed a new ROM, you Kaiser got a new life and you got a fantastic experience.
I have been flashing my touch HD for months love new roms
Its just my gf rom is the Tytn 2 but i want to give it a new lease of life for her
so just to consifm that there is nothing different to do and i should just follow the intructions ?
Thanks

You can flash a i9000 rom so instead of looking for att captivate in the search section look for samsung i9000, that is the international version of the phone. You can flash a US ROM more than likely and it is very easy. Please look there...
Ge Thanks Slider, will try it. hope will bring back a english menu instead of the mandarin ones.
sorry for this stupid question but doesnt gingerbread have 32 languages to choose from or is that just the ability to type or text in those languages? sorry i was just curious and this is prob a stupid question.
