I suggest to call this forum Treo750 instead of Cheetah. The phone will be known worldwide as Treo 750 as opposite to the HTC other phones called differently by various operators. PALM is selling this phone and not HTC or the operators.
What do you think ?
PS: Check the latest ROM released few days ago
well, it is "my fault" that this forum is called "cheetah" as I suggested the change to the board's admin (previously this was incorrecly placed on the Smarphone section).
I also suggested to change the TyTN to Hermes which in this case has more sense as it is released under a lot of different names by operators.
If the 'Cheetah' is not going to be released under any other name than Treo750 then we can change the forum's name as it has no sense to call it by HTC's codename i guess.
first, I glad we got it on the board in the first place.
second, I liked seeing it pulled from the "smartphones" and put up with the other ppc.
now we don't know for sure if it will be released under any other names, but it does look as if just the letter after the 750 will change.
my though is the "treo" name itself will always be there. even if htc made it people will always see it as the "treo".
I vote for it being called the Treo 750. That is what is will be sold as worldwide. 750v (Vodaphone) 750c (Cingular) etc...
Treo 750v no question
I thought the cheetah was the 700wx? I know the wx was made by htc so it sould be here as well. the title treo treo would cover both.
I googled cheetah and found nothing. how do you guys know that is the name of the 750v? what's the htc name for the wx then?
thanks, cody

I say just "Treo" or "WM Treo"
Not "750v" or "Cheetah".
Though 750v may be more popular since it's a GSM phone around these parts, fact is the 700w/wx community is pretty well established and both phones overlap significantly. They have more in common that differences so why even make the distinction?

IIRC the Treo 700w is manufactured by Inventec, while the 750 is manufactured by HTC. In terms of OS they are not very different from any other WM5 device, but ROM formats are different, bootloader is different, hardware is different, radio stack is different... and previous XDA-Developers 'kwow-how' can't be used with the 700w. That's why the "general Treo" forum will probably be suitable for both devices, but the "Upgrading" forum will only make sense for the 750 in this board.
EDIT: just seen in your signature "Treo 700wx (HTC)", then I am wrong... didn't know that the treo700 was also an HTC device... probably it makes sense to let the foum be for both devices then.
There was a huge rumor going around that Inventec was building at least the 700p but it turns out to be a false (http://discussion.treocentral.com/showthread.php?t=121715) as HTC does both the 700p and 700w/wx.
I certainly acknowledge the other hardware differences, so it would certainly make sense to have the 'upgrade only' section for the 750v (and I'm very jealous that you manged to get them a new ROM already! ;-) )

I really am a little confused as to whether 02 will be releasing an upgrade (Pocket PC SE) for the XDA II ?
There is lots of good information around regarding the IIs and IIb, but there is conflicting reports about whether 02 will realease an upgrade for all existing XDA II users.
Does anyone actually know?
October 2004, official rom 1.72 from O2, but still not sure...!!!
and i hope contain WM2003SE.
sorry,...
Even if o2 do not provide an upgrade, I've checked with Imate this week and they have confirmed that they are still planning an upgrade.
I'm also expecting that the new XDA II's will be so similar in terms of hardware that their ROM images will work on the original XDA II
i'm pretty sure that o2's 1.72 is not 2003SE at leas the 1.72 from imate and qtek are not
Anyone got O2 Atom and downloaded the O2 Plus from O2 Connect? Seems that the new O2 Plus is much better than the old one (version 1.7). Any chance to share it here?

Er, I have the atom. I've tried the 02 Connect. As of now, it has an upgrade for 02 SMS plus only. If the 02 Plus is out, AND if I am able to extract it, I will post it here.

Interesting stuff, what I like the most is that it says "Most likely" WM7 can be used on older devices because all the changes like screen rotation with device will use the cam instead of hardware like accelerometers and stuff... wonder how long till my wizard is sporting WM7...
they gonna turn ppc's into sm/iphone/touch ****?

...taking 40 of 47 mb mem free.....
does any1 have WM 6.1 WWE yet?
WM7 on an 2-year old wizard?
Realistically, the chances of WM7 running on a standard Wizard are somewhere between slim and none. I can offer two strong reasons: memory and speed. As someone noted earlier there are only 49 MB of program memory. Right now mine has only 19 free. If Microsoft follows its normal OS expansion rate, 49 MB won't be nearly enough.
As for speed - we,, we all know how fast the Wizards's chip is and - even with overclocking - it's slow. And in a year it will seem slower still.
So.. unless someone is going to begin to sell an aftermarket Wizard chipset on a higher capacity and faster piece of silicon - which I find unlikely and uneconomical -WM7 just isn't in the cards for old Wizards.
Having said that, I would love to be wrong.
You never really know though. I think there is a good chance that the wonderful cooks here will work a miracle and get wm7 on our Wizards. Look at the MPx200, for example: It's had every version of windows mobile/smartphone ever since SP2002 when it came out.
Well too bad couldn't have said the same for my MPX300 it was stuck with WM2003se............ but WM6 seem a bit cool tho.............
You have the MPX300?? Interested in selling?
it's not 100% tho ............ water got on the screen so i can't get past the screen alignment when i reset the phone

True, pity mine sucks as it has a habit of spontaneously discharging the battery so I can't turn it on, thus I switched to the Wizard and now my iPhone.
EDIT: Looking at that Windows Mobile 7 article, I'm severely tempted back to Windows Mobile if that takes off!
I don't think wizard can handle wm7 (full OS) but i'm sure rom chef's will find tha way to adapt some programs that will be used with it... maybe some hacking will allow software to be run in an acceptable level... not the OS but the feeling of it...
I heard that wm7 will be released on 2009. Is it true? I hope they will release it in this year.
b4 WM7 is out, does any1 have WM 6.1 WWE yet?
now i'm built sucselt wm6.1 wwe! it's changer *.mui RUS lang to WWE!
testing!!!!
up soon
i bet they release this year cause of the iphone even though its overated people are buying it instead of windows mobile phones. Looks like it will be out next september i reckon as from the pictures it looks pretty much finished interface wise. The HTC touch should get an update to WM7 as the touchflo isnt that great tbh.

I can't wait ... it will be great... and btw. i think Wizard will be one of the devices on which microsoft will be testing... it's only my opinion, but it is old and it is popular.. same as MPx200 was (i had it before) and guess what? Microsoft tested WM5 on MPx200? Why? Because it was old and popular
But no flame war pleeeeeze

Hi everyone...
I just picked up my second HTC Touch Cruise (a.k.a. p3650, Polaris)
[by the way, i have sold it already, no propositions please]
I may be silly here, but the S/N and P/N on the two packages differ:
S/N
orignal starts: HT803GE
new: HT804GE
ALSO
P/N
original: 99HDZ013-00
new: 99HDZo22-00
just noticed this too .....
by barcode on box:
original: 90H01163-00M Rev.A
new: 90H01163-05M Rev.A
that is all that i can tell is different from the outside... obviously i cannot open it as it does not belong to me....
could it be that one is a Nordic version, and the other a UK version? (i thought they would be the same one....)
i would imagine this means no one knows, if they are shipping an updated version or not already...
maybe we could start a thread with Part numbers and such (with revisions) to see what is out there
Version (s)
My electronic IMEI is different than that on the box it came in and that printed inside the battery compartment!!
Not the same thing I know but could be a cause for concern
Anyone here going to switch to the HTC Diamond?
http://www.htc.com/europe/product.aspx?id=46638
-The way i see it, the VGA screen is a big plus.
-I'm not at all sold on HTC touch interface..it blows.
-I would miss my keyboard big time.
I probably would not do it. What about you guys?
ummmm wrong forum...and no cuz theres no hardware qwerty
eventually someone here will port the UI to the Kaiser
did it with the cube and touchflo...
learn how to spell KAISER
No memory card slot is a pain to me even though I like the tilt sensor.
I am waiting to see the 8 or 16G memory verion, so far only 4G looks like from stone age )
Ill dump my Kaiser depending on the pricing !!!
Depends on the price.
I'm so sure that one of the ROM-Gurus is gonna make the diamond-GUI available for the KAISER so I don't have to change the phone, I love my TYTN!
i am madly in love with my kaiser and i can't let it go ..

And that's the only thing I'll pull from the Diamond. I enjoy the qwerty keyboard too much to go with this phone.
not for the diamond but for the Raphel, my Kaiser goes bye bye when the Raphel comes out. Also manilla may not be portable to the kaiser (may not have enough graphical horsepower).
GSM Band
You have to look for USA version,because this phone it will not work in USA network,
check it out..
Europe/Asia: 900/2100 MHz
Up to 384 kbps up-link and 7.2 Mbps down-link speeds
Tri-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE:
Europe/Asia: 900/1800/1900 MHz
I'm just happy there is a poll! What happened to the SE X1? Can someone start a thread about the Diamond and X1 comparisons and add a poll on which one do you want...
O HTC Diamond
O Sony Erickson Xperia X1
I never use the keyboard.
I bought the wrong phone (My Shift already got a keyboard)
The touch cruise came a few weeks after I got my kaiser...
So, at the end of this year... I guess the Diamond is the way to go for me...
I hope there is a 8GB or 16GB version by then.
greetz,
Pfeffa-rah
Put a keyboard on it , and it becomes the Sony Xperia X1.
I'd much rather get the Sony Xperia X1. Although with HTCs current situation with the Kaiser , I am not sure I would go with another HTC product.

Raphael and Diamond are the same phone just another name for it. Raphael is the branded T-Mobile name for it.

FCC documentation about HTC Touch Diamond
I personally need to have expansion memory and i am overly surprised HTC did not include that with their latest innovation. The phone looks nice but without a sliding keyboard for text messaging, or writing word and excel documents is just another drawback from myself purchasing one.
My Tilt is an eye catcher on its own. I always get compliments, even by iPhone users. XDA and the great community within has allowed me to completely understand the software that is on my device and customize my phone with great applications.
donate me one and I will help porting linux. looks nice but only plus vs kaiser is vga imo.
u think anyones gonna make a rom that looks like the hTC diamond?
i have high hopes for dutty

I believe the rapheal has a slideout keyboard with a similar form factor to the diamond, could be wrong
