Question Common charging port and headset port in diamond!!!

Guys
Are you all OK with the common port for BOTH

Charging & Headset

Dont you think this is a weak aspect of HTC as Diamond battery is so weak which necessitate charging it while using ur headset???!!!

Meh. After a while you'll get used to it - HTC like their silly ExtUSB port. Use a bluetooth headset or carry a spare battery.

Is there a way to use your own headphones with this kind of port? And: is there an antenna/headphone cable available in order to listen to the radio with your own headphones?

Of course there is..
Besides, if you look online, you'll see splitters for the ExtUSB, when you can both charge and listen to music at the same time..

As I understood, ExtUSB has 11 pins.. the splitters make it into 2 ports - 5 pins and 6 pins..
It may not look... "perfect" but you'll only use it inside anyway, on a desk (or chair XD )

Thanks for the quick reply. Can you recommend a place to shop for accessories like these?

Frankly speaking.. no idea..
I usually check several places to find a model that doesn't look to cheap, so it'll fall apart in a week, but also not too expensive..
You'll have to google, I guess )

it's always eBay for me
Telstra HTC Touch Diamond (DIAM 130) with unsigned Hard SPL OliNex (here) Shine On 2.4 Light ROM with dynamic pagepool by panosha (here) and I use 1.00.25.08 radio (here). This radio gives the best signal strength of all radios currently available when using Telstra's Next G network in regional areas - signal strength is on a par with phones from LG and Samsung that Telstra give the "regional tick".
