Guest Kaaeed Posted August 10, 2008 Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 Hi Guys I am currently "happy" with my HTC Touch Enhanced (ROM 256MB, SDRAM 128MB) which I have owned for about 4 months now. Can anyone who has upgraded from a Touch give me some feedback on how they find the Diamond? I am using SPB Mobile Shell 2 so must admit that the interface is pretty good on my Touch. The rational side of me cannot really see the difference with the upgrade to 6.1 and says to me wait for Windows Mobile 7 whilst the bling of the Diamond is appealing :D Thanks Kaaeed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Christopher Woods Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 So I finally got around to flashing WM6 onto my hermes... to give you a bit of background; I had completely stopped using my hermes and had gone back to my ancient (in tech terms) Nokia 6230i after WM5 had become perishingly slow. It had become so much of a pain to connect to my parrot handsfree that I had stopped using that too... (£114 wasted). Also on every phone call there was at least a three ring delay from someone calling me, to my phone realising it should be ringing... not impressed. So I thought that a flash to a WM6 rom might help, after having a look around for a little while, I went for Schaps 4.31, initially, its a massive improvement, the phone is quick and responsive, and generally runs much quicker, plus there are lots of nice little things like HTC home... However the delayed phone ringing still seems to be an issue... when I am in the middle of using the phone or if the phone is out of standby and I receive a phone call, it seems to react much quicker than WM5 ever did, almost instantly realising that it should be ringing, much better. However, if the device has gone into standby, then it will completely ignore that there is an incoming call... It simply does not ring... I have just tried 3 or 4 times and my phone hasn't rung once, after I have hung up on my home phone I have been bringing the device out of standby to see if it has registered the call at all, as soon as I turn the device on there is a missed call on it... This is so intensely irritating! As I am sure you can appreiciate! At least with WM5 there would be a wait of 3-4 rings beofre it brought itself out of standby and then it would ring, but with WM6, nothing! Surely I can't be the only one experiencing this? I can't even say that this might be just my hermes, as I had it replaced by vodafone about 2 months ago... Sadly... I will be reverting back to my Nokia after I have written this, at least it is able to send/ receive calls without falling over... I cannot belive that I have a piece of hardware sitting on my desk that is, after all the bells and whistles, supposed to be a phone, and doesn't work as one!!! If an old Nokia can manage it why cant my hermes? At this moment there is a hermes selling on ebay of £139, I am very tempted.... Annoyingly my friends iPhone seems to do all the phone functions flawlessly along with lots of lovely web and data integration... It is still apple though.. Does anyone have any suggestions to improve my woes? Sorry for the massive <\rant> trinityj5 ;) 6.1 does have a few advantages over 6.0 - nothing hugely major from what I can tell, just small, nice things... finger-drag scrolling in PIE, threaded SMSes, other minor OS improvements and under-the-hood refinements, etc. I ran 6.1 on my phone for a week or so, but reverted to the official TMUK 6.0 ROM when it became available (mainly because it's got all the TM settings preset for me!) It'd be nice to be able to just upgrade without setting everything up again from scratch, but I'm fairly happy with 6.0. If you have a blank canvas to work with, you might as well just install 6.1!
