  • Their mid range phones have not sold too well.
  • Their high-end phones are poor to what the market is currently offering.
  • Clearly, a lack of innovation.

Make your HTC Touch DIAMOND Quad-Band

Impossible has been done again by the folks at XDA-devs. They have been able to add/activate 850mhz band to the HTC Touch Diamond. All you need to get the Quad Band radio available there.

Please note that the faint-hearted should not do this. If anything goes wrong, you may be left with a bricked diamond.

..and I apologize not to mentioning the URL of ROM as it is against our website’s policies. But, hey it is easy :!:

Me Impressed with HTC Touch Diamond? NO, I'm not

I went to my local store to check out the latest Gadgets available there. I saw a Touch Diamond and used it for a while.

My impressions:

  • VGA is beautiful on the 2.8″ screen
  • It is sexy. No doubt. Makes the Touch(original) look ugly
  • Very thin
  • Touchflo 3D is slow, but impressive
  • Takes a while to boot(more than a minute)

But, I won’t be buying it. Why?

  • Not Quad-band. I need a world phone
  • Poor battery life
  • Slow interface
  • Less available RAM(just 55MB from 192MB of RAM. 64MB is pre-reserved for GPU. Out of the rest 128MB of RAM, you get 55MB in the end)

Looks like, I’ll be buying a TYTN II or a Touch Cruise in the end then. What do you say guys?

*excuse the poor camera quality. I did not have my camera with me. Picture taken with my friend’s SE P990i
