Dutch version

[stilghar]

Hi all,

I'm new to the forum and to Windows Mobile. I'm planning to get a new Diamond 2 in The Netherlands. Searching I've found that I can get the MDA Compact V version from T-Mobile NL or go for the HTC Diamond 2 version on T for Telecom. My biggest concern is that I want to have the device in ENGLISH, does anyone from The Netherlands know which versions are sold here and which language they ship with?

Is it possible to change the language afterwards in case it comes in dutch? I've seen some threads talking about the need of flashing the ROM for this. I'm a really new to all this so I don't know if that is possible using official HTC ROMS or is something else...

I don't know if I make much sense, sorry again if I talk non-sense.

Thanks!

In almost every shop you can choose between the NLD (Dutch) version and the UK (WWE) version. Just ask at the shop.

Thanks, I'll try that. I had assumed that being in The Netherlands all shops will be selling only the Dutch version.

Sorry, but you can't chose between langages in the shops in The Hague, especialy at Bel Company. They don't care if you want an english version and they become very arogant about that. Best thing is to buy one in dutch if they don't want to provide one in english and ask nicely CMONEX to help you to change the language in english.

Thanks for the info iulnitu. I'll check on Saturday and see if I can get it in English. It's a bit strange that this happened to you at Bel Company. In their website they are announcing both version NL and UK, you can check here:

Anyway, I'll guess I'll find out personally this Saturday. Anyone with a similar experience?

pdashop.nl sells devices in NL en ENG. Other sites do too.

T-Mobile will probably only sell the Dutch device. If you want to get a WWE version you'll have to look at a HTC Touch Diamond 2 (Not MDA Compact V).
