With SensorLock, you can lock your HTC Diamond just by rotating the device. To lock, just rotate it clockwise and to unlock, rotate it counter-clockwise.

Well, I do not know if any other device other than the HTC Diamond and Diamond Pro currently posses this cool feature or not, but the feature is actually very useful especially if you are in a meeting and a call comes in.

I’ve made a video and have demostrated this very useful functionality.

If you are an owner of the sexy HTC Diamond, there is one thing that will annoy you the most especially if you are coming from some other Windows Mobile device: the device won’t wake up when an SMS comes in.

Just make the following changes in the registry of the HTC Diamond. You can use any of the registry editor.

Go to HKLMDriversBuiltInRIL > find the DisableSMSWakeUpEvent > Change value to 0 > Soft Reset.

Some popular registry editors are “Resco registry”. It comes with Resco File explorer. You can also use PHM Registry Editor to perform the same action but the developer of PHM registry editor is no longer offering the application on his website.

I am well aware of the fact the Nokias and Sony ericssons have having the USB 2.0 speeds from quite some time but this news is not so old for the Windows Mobile devices. The maximum speed the windows mobile devices could achive was just USB 1.1.

The HTC Diamond offers true USB 2.0 . I was able to transfer a 700MB movie, “Never Back Down” to my Diamond in less than 4mins!
