I found it very tight to start off with, almost to the point of wearing away the sides of the phone. After a few weeks though it seems to slackened off somewhat.

I was a bit hesitant about spening the extra on the brodit, but i can fully say it was well worth it!

Hi
This tool allows you to install unsigned third party software. By default i think the diamond allows unsigned apps anyway. Sim unlock is somthing completley different again.

Never liked him anyway

Is anyone else still waiting for their reply off paul about the modaco+ membership?

Can me cynical but aren't these magazines bias to whoever gives them the most advertising money?

I've had several windows mobile phones and as far as I can see the diamond is a huge leap forward - do they point this out? No - its mainy 'ooooh...its not an iphone!' Anyone would swear apple inveted mobile phones the way some people go on about them

Does anyone know when UMTS900 will be used in this country? It seems that it has been approved for use and rollout has begun in some other EU states.


Thanks

Hi yes, infact they sent me two! Had send one straight back

I love the phone, only query I have is the 3g signal strength considering I have 2/3 3g masts nearby.

Its a new contract. If you already have an orange contract, you would need to port your number out then back in again to keep it, aswell as cancelling your existing contract (providing you dont want two contracts running alongside each other).

Ok- I phoned this afternoon and there was a problem with my card being declined, at the same time i was on the phone barclays fraud department phoned up

So, once I got that sorted everything seemed ok.

Phoned up just now after Mujja reminded me about the rm tracking code and was given one so hopefully should be here tomorrow.

Spoke to the same guy a few times today and he was very helpful and polite!

Cheers

Thats a big screen!

Just phoned- Its going to be sent out today and I should have it tomorrow! Fingers crossed!

Ok - No phone today, despite being told it should have been sent yesterday. I shall phone them in a bit

Similar thing happened to me, ordered sunday night, about 4pm it was still showing as pending so i phoned them and they pushed it along a bit but at 18:00 i got an email stating that there has been a delay and then 5 minutes later it had gone to the warehouse awaiting dispatch. So im not really sure if its going to arrive tomorrow or not.

I also ordered the brodit car mount else where - im betting i get that before the phone.

Looks to be down at the moment and has for most of the day. Any idea if this would be to update coverage information?

Cheers

So can anyone who's had theirs confirm this comes with the 500mb data?

Hi, thanks for your reply. V have confirmed to me that my area is H enabled. Basically, I want a HTC diamond, so my options are V or Orange (tmob dont have any 3g masts here, but there are 2 Three ones so maybe the tie up will give them coverage). Do I go with Orange who seem to be more arresive in rolling out 3g and have slightly better coverage but albeit at bog standard 3g in the hope they H enable soon or go with V who are H enabled but I have no idea what they are doing as far as mast rollout goes.

Does anyone know what the general situation is with reguards to 3g mast rollouts? Its very hard to find any information from any of the network for all i know it could have come to a grinding halt.

Cheers

Hi
Does that mean that any vodafone and 3 coverage i have would be hsdpa? Does orange have a timescale for national hsdpa rollout?

Cheers

Hi
Im looking at switching over to a contract from my 02 payg. I live is west wales and 3g coverage is slim at best. However the town where I work (Aberystwyth) is covered by all networks except t-mobile. Orange currently have slightly better coverage than the rest, but none of them have coverage outside of this town.

What i'd like to know is which one of the major networks seems to be rolling out 3g in areas like this the fastest? I dont seem to be able to find anything from any of the networks on where they plan to cover next.

At the moment im probably looking at Orange as they have more 3g masts here than anyone else, although the rather unclear vodafone and three coverage checker maps seem to indicate that they have HSDPA coverage here, although im not entierly convinced.

Thanks

It looks harder than it is to do, its more fiddly than anything.

Hi
Having just taken my e650 apart to change the casing , you will have to dissasemble most of the phone to get to the screen. I would follow the service guide its pretty accurate.

Hi
I am having the same problem - did you ever resolve this?

Hi
Are these facias still being sold? I've dropped my 550 twice now, the screen is looking pretty sorry for itself.
