Default Diamond and App Issues

This is probably a grey market Diamond, so keep that in mind.

1. SKTool: Works fine so far, I changed the fonts and sizes, looks neat and clean. I also optimized performance, but did not apply manual tweaks. Works better and touchlfo is quicker.
2. Coreplayer: Works but in some media QTV does not
3. SafeInBox: Perfect
4. Resco Explorer: No issues yet
5. WebCamera Plus: Seems to work fine
6. Franson GPSGate: No issues
7: PocketController Pro: Great
8: Quickmenu: Fantastic
9: Garmin XT: Very Good

MEDIA ISSUE occured: The WebCamera Plus and CorePlayer continued plying video on the today screen. It was strange, but that maybe fixed by not allowing background play.

I have hard reset twice now trying to apply the tweaks in this forum. I would avoid them. Sktool optimizes and works great. Touchflo would pause like a second, but still faster. When Shap's and registry tweaks were applied the phone locked up.

I lost the abitlity to turn wifi on once. It would show the wait icon, go through the motion, but would not turn on.?????? Fixed after hard reset.

Installing programs on external memory (the built in 4MB) works fine.

Im having a problem with ActiveSync. I keep getting an error which I cant fix.

Aside the iPhone, I havent taken intrest in my phones like this one. The last one I had was the LG KS20 which is okay. This phone is pretty good, but consumes memory.

Well, Grey market or not, it is a diamond indeed. Tested your apps, had not any issues with CorePlayer, tho. and while using the forum's tweaks neither.

TouchFlo 3D is a pain, tho. It eats the battery so much it's incredible, I can even see my power bar depleting eye naked. TouchFlo 3D off, battery lasts forever.

Mine is an asian unit. registerd okay on HTC asia website. but not on HTC.com e-club.

Does the battery last that (how) much longer with touch 3D off?

Well, average calculations in order, using the device normally. Bluetooth on, wifi off, some calls of 5-10 minutes each and running Windows Media Player;

TouchFlo 3D On: at most, 4-5 hours (even with no calls.)
TouchFlo 3D Off: at most, all day.

Wow. That's a shockingly poor battery life. I've never seen any reviews where it has been that bad...

Oh i didnt realise the stand lets you charge a second battery. Thats fine then, i'll just carry two batteries. Without a second battery charger that never works because the second battery never ends up getting charged!

---

Charge or synchronise your HTC Touch Diamond

Charge or synchronise your HTC Touch Diamond simply by placing the device in the cradle connector. You can plug the desktop cradle into a home stereo system via the cradle’s 3.5mm line out connection to enjoy high quality music playback.

Intergrated Spare Battery Charger

It can be charged and synchronised with HTC Touch Diamond AC Adaptor UK TC B100 (not included) or HTC Touch Diamond Data Cable DC U300 (USB/miniUSB) (not included).
This cradle comes with two inserts (the plastic holders) for Touch Diamond and Touch Diamond extended battery and it also supports the inline connection of the following optional accessories:
HTC Touch Diamond Multifunction Audio Cable YC A200
TV Out Cable TC A110 (pre-released)
