Is sadly not available on the HTC Diamond as yet. This was confirmed to me by Orange today. So yes it appears that all Orange Diamonds have just had generic HTC branding on them. No idea from them either when the device will support TV services...

This may be a repeat thread if it is, does anyone else know any more about this.

It is available. Have tried free channel when on 3G. You have to find a link from the orangeworld.co.uk homepage to mobile TV, not always easy. The lack of orange software means there's no link preloaded but once you find it you can save it as a Bookmark on Opera. Its a very long address otherwise.

Link or screen which should lead you there is www.orangeworld.co.uk/r/orangetv/


Try that on Opera and click around from there.

Try it a few times. It doesn't always seem keen to let you in. Orange Customer Services couldn't tell me the address.

I think the link should be

http://orangeworld.co.uk/r/orangetv/

but I just get a 'link not' recognised.

Thats it! Works fully well but glitchy and intermittent. I think mobile tv has been intermittently allowing access. More than just address issues.

Can imagine they are still testing the system so allowing connections like you say. I'm personally looking forwards to when Orange start broadcasting Mobile HD, continental european Orange users have had this for a while..

the link in previous posts now does work on my device (latest rom also installed). Sorry to see the video is a paltry 177x144px and 128kbps stream. Pretty unwatchable and not really worth the subscription to be fair.
