a google search is enough to bring you tons of information you need for this device
I'm using HP iPAQ rw6828 running on WM5 for about 8 months now and i'm pretty much satisfied. I assume upgrading to WM6 will be even better. Recommended.
Note: I've recently bought and start using HTC Touch Dual because of the keyboard... if you are going to write a lot (SMS etc) the touch screen is not very comfortable. This includes all PPCs without keyboard.
ps. Does anyone knows whats a good price for selling it? It has some scratches and bump markes but works like a charm
brand new looking htc touch hd with whole loads of give program like tomtom navigator, coreplayer and every big program with latest upgraded 6.5 rom if any one wants to swap with htc hero
yes ofcourse unlocked htc touch hd plz do PM.
and yes in U.K
???
don't mean to be negative, BUT

I have a piece of string, slightly used. Anyone want to swap for Hero?
get your htc touch on ebay £270 easy for one of them and put the rest to a hero.
Or wait til some clever barsteward ports android to the htc.
Hi, I'd like to now, before buiyng Omnia II, if Samsung gives the possibility to update in an official way (maybe through their updates) windows mobile 6.5 to wm 6.5.3 or 6.5.5.
And if there isn't this possibility, to download the unofficial roms from Modaco, obviously i have to be registered, but to register, do i have to pay? Otherwise is there a way to download these roms from xda?
Finally between the Arm1176 800 Mhz of Omnia II and the Snapdragon QSD8250 1Ghz there is a big difference in daily use? theoretically video playback should be the same for standard definition, or not? and windows mobile is almost equally fast for both the processors, or not? where should i see the benefits of Snapdragon?
Thank you very much (and sorry for my bad English)
Bye
Hi,
Samsung didn't announce anything about WinMo 6.5.x upgrades, so I wouldn't bet on it.
Registering at Modaco is free, and the ROMs posted there from Secany are semi-official, some kind of development snapshots from Samsung, and they are getting better and better Maybe Secany will post them here also in the future...
Finally to the difference between the ARM and the snapdragon: With the snapdragon everything will run faster than with the ARM. Especially starting Apps but probably also stuff like viewing pictures. Video playback will mainly depend on the video hardware which has nothing to do with the main processor. As far as the Omnia II is concerned, playback in SD is as smooth as it can get and I didn't notice any significant lags, except for Samsung's own main menu (which you really don't need).
ok, thank you very much WebReaper21 !!!

Nonsense. "Snapdragon" is market name of RISC-architecture CPU with ARM instruction set.
Compare these links, if you have any doubts:
http://www.pdadb.net/index.php?m=cpu&id=a6410&c=samsung_s3c6410 - about Omnia II CPU

These are some nice links. I was referring to the specific Processors as mentioned in the first post (ARM for the OMNIA 2, Snapdragon as in the HD2, I presume). While both processors may have an ARM instruction set, the Snapdragon has a newer and in most applications faster architecture AFAIK.
Please correct me if I'm wrong there...

I'm not kind of geek to tell you if you're wrong or not The only one think I'm sure is that, Snapdragon is way faster than S3C6410. But don't ask me how it does
I think it's time for EOT
WM ROM for Samsung Omnia LITE (GT-B7300)
I'm sorry if this isn't the best spot for this question but I'm doing my best to not clutter up the board with a new thread dedicated to what I'm hoping will be a simple answer.
While in Thailand my girlfriend purchased a Samsung Omnia LITE or GT-B7300, which you can see more of at pdadb.net (search for the GT-B7300, I'd provide a link but as I'm a new account I cannot do that yet. The phone came with a WM 6.5 English and Thai ROM and I'd like to get either...
1. An English and Chinese ROM (preferable so Google Maps works while in Beijing).
2. A way to add on Chinese characters so texts and programs can do simplified Chinese.
I've not see any mention of this phone on XDA; any suggestions on where to get the right ROM or at least have the right character set put on the phone?

I read somewhere (reliable) that someone got an WM6.5.3 update in a Samsung Service Centre, so I believe this version is comming soon
Hi all,
I am planning to upgrdae to WinMo 6.5 through the official update, I have a few questions..
1. Is there a possibility to rollback to 6.1 from 6.5 (without flashing it with custom Roms)
2. Is it faster then 6.1
There are some official 6.1 roms, but you can flash it only with Octans or Octans Mini.
6.5 is a bit slower than 6.1 and has memory leaks.
you don't have to pay to get'em form modaco but it is kinda hard to install them.
There is unofficial service update to win 6.5.3 by Samsung. Version build 23103. This is not public service test update. Don't ask me how i knew that, just believe - wersion 6.5.3 is coming soon.
Is it possible to obtain this update?

In fact, it seems that JD1 ROM is 6.5.3....
Correct, it is.
flashed and using for about a week now and it works great way fast. Using a lite ROM and get 98MB free on fresh boot and 70MB with SPB
The builds starting with 253 were part of the COM3 builds wasn't it?
I wonder how long it'll take verizon to butcher it..
I just can't see flashing this phone until a stock rom is available.
Still looking for other radios too for my community project...

Hi, I'm sorry if this thread had been posted before but I did a forum search and could not find anything on the topic.
I just bought my Touch Diamond 2 three days ago. It's also my first Windows Mobile Phone
I am very happy with it but I came to know about the concept of TD2 clones
Now I'm confused if I have the real deal
Is there any particular procedure- manual/software oriented/ list of steps to chck if my mobile is the real deal?
I installed TD2 tools v3 and here are some of the things shown in Device info
Device Model ID: Touch Diamond 2 T5353
CPU: QUALCOMM(R) 7200A
CPU Speed: 528 MHz
OS Kernel Version: 5.2.21869
Manilla Version: 2.1.19201317.0
ROM Version: 2.17.720.2(68613) WWE
I'm from India and I upgraded my ROM to Windows 6.5 from 6.1 using the official RUU from HTC India site.
Can you please point me out in the right direction?
I'm sorry for the long post, just that I'm too tensed.
If you were able to upgrade your ROM with an official HTC tool, I think its pretty safe to bet it is real. Also, on many fakes the zoombar is a volume control, so check yours
Thanks so much for a prompt and helpful reply.
Zoombar checking done, zooms perfectly on photos , no effect on audio player
Just curious, any other tips(mainly software that checks versions and all) to see if my phone is real
Just curious coz I'm a student and used all my saved up money for this phone
Hi.
Most of the clones don't have Qualcomm processor, only 3MP camera, no front camera.
Biggest difference: no clone EVER wad upgraded with official HTC rom.
So you can relax, yours TD2 is real.
Thanks a lot, I feel so much better now
Off to learn about custom ROM installation.( It's hard for me)
But with all the great guides, I'm sure I'll crack it
Thanks again
I had the first one a few years back and every since then I have been unhappy with the nokia and samsung I had so Im finally back with what I loved
Havent really checked the board yet, will do some proper searches later - Just wondering if their is a best version of windows mobile to flash too...
Also does TomTom work properly on this phone as on the first one you needed something else to add on I think? I could never get it to work anyway! Ha
Is their a definitive list of games too? Free or to buy? Used to love the emulators for the MDA 1 even though they struggled with sound, also Scummvm and games like Virtual Pool and Tomb Raider were amazing so Im excited to see what else has came out!
Oh, and does it just support a 2gig SD card? Before I make a purchase?
Anyway, any help would be appreciated! Thanks
Hey Chris!
The latest official roms for the Hermes are based on WM6. But also 6.1 and 6.5 are running smooth - it depends on you which rom is the best for you; you'll have to try out.
Tomtom is running well, i use TomTom 7 with a bluetooth GPS (Motorola, about 20$ at amazon).
I don't know anout a special game list - so you have to look around the internet (google will help you ;-)).
The size of the memory card depends on the OS: every non-HC memory card will work, since wm6 (afaik) memory cards until 16GB are supported.
