This probably has been answered some time age, what is the difference between the two Versions, and why are IllBasha's Images for the B Model only? Are all/the other Roms working with the A version? AFAIK i have the A model (with the black plastic parts on the front) which was sold by T-Mobile as the MDA II in Germany.
Cheers & Thanks in Advance,

Can somebody please tell me if they have bought one of these phones in ENGLAND (ONLY INTERESTED IN ENGLAND). A simple answer of Yes, contact details of where the phone was bought and the cost of the phone AND/OR contract details.
HTC TYTN
QTEK 9600
IMATE JASJAM
ORANGE SPV M3100
XDA TRION
T MOBILE MDA VARIO II
DOPOD CHT 9000
XDA XION
VODAFONE V1605
HERM 200
I think that these are all the same phone. (correct me if I am wrong)
Kind Regards

Yes.
Several people have bought the Voda version (from the Voda shop in Watford) I believe.
Personally, I will wait for either the Orange or T-Mobile version (they will look different - better IMO - to the Voda version and will also have a better data package).

Does anybody know which device this phone is?
http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/04/eyes-on-with-t-mobiles-mda-compact-iv/
Most likely its an HTC, but it looks like the polaris but its even better.
Why would they release two similar phones so soon after each other?
T-Mobile Shadow. Cheers!
It could be HTC Pharos I think....
but 4 GB storage? Hm....
actually it is the htc touch diamond but it's the germany tmobile version known as the MDA compact 4. T-mobile and HTC are now working together to make great mda's. And if you don't know htc was making the diamond but with a full qwerty keyboard and they were going to call it the raphael but t-mobile is going to call it the Vario 4. The Compact 4 is coming out in "Germany" Next month(July) for a not yet determined price and the vario 4 will be released in autumn for Germany. Well i hope this helps and i hope Europe releases those phones to US soon or i'll be very upset. lol

That's a "Victor" rather than a "Diamond". Same device, just different casing design!
I checked T-Mobile UK customer services and they say that T-Mobile UK is expecting MDA compact 4 in July 2008! So we may get this device in UK soon!

I went into a T-Mobile shop to ask about any release date and the sales staff just looked at me blankly and shrugged their shoulders!!

I hope they sort out the aledged 'laggy' response on the screen graphics of the HTC Diamond I have read about in some reviews...my advice is a 'hands on' test of a real retail version of the device in the store before handing over your cash
the compact 4 is being relesed in uk sometime before september (my tmob contracts due for upgrade then so i got the details of new phones outta their upgrades team earlier this week. - and it IS a diamond with tmob badges

Diamonds (HTC Touch Diamond that is... not the compact 4) are available in the UK as of now, i dont get why it takes tmobile so long to simply rebadge the diamond (its quite minimal from what ive seen).
I am on a tmobile contract with my HTC TyTN, but i plan on using the upgrade for a handset for the Mrs, i like the look of the Raphael anyway (HTC Touch Pro..........Vario IV).

I think the Compact IV is a Victor (no Diamond effect stuff) rather than a Diamond (P3702 rather than P3700).
I guess operators want to try and get the most money from the current devices before making money from the new ones...
The T-Mo phones do have a redecorated TF3D though...
This is MDA compact 4
Hello group:
I've a T-Mobile SDA (US version) and I want to replace the keypad (joystick) because I've a lot of problems...and I found two types of SDA (SDA and SDA II, I don't know if there is other) and I want to know which keypad works with my SDA (US version)...
Thanks..
Best regards,
Do a search on E-Bay for Item number: 350036868498 Thats the one you need. Same one I got for mine and works perfect.
Good Luck
Hi I brought a HTC TyTN II a few weeks ago from an Australian supplier. The phone works great but when I try to install the “TOMTOM” navigation disk it says the ROM version is incorrect. I contacted HTS Australia, they say the unit is from Indonesia and so not supported here. Can anyone tell me where I can get an Australian ROM version? I am with Telstra for my mobile. I see lots of ROM versions on this site but not sure which one. ( sorry im new)
thanks
Tim
Yeah I'd like to get my hands on a current TyTN II rom for Australia.
I'm currently running Duttys latest rom which is working fine for the most part. I did have a small issue today where people on incoming calls couldnt hear me speak but a soft reset seems to have fixed that for now. Hope it doesnt come back
You can download it from http://www.asia.htc.com/Dopod_Aus/member/login.aspx You need to register with the serial number of an Australian phone to get access to the Australian ROMs. As far as I was aware the Australian (non branded TyTnII) phones ship with CoPilot and not TomTom. (At least mine did). So this may explain your TomTom issues.
Initially I flashed the Aust Hutch Three ROM to my phone but to be honest it really offers very little over the standard ROM other than the custom Three shortcuts which are easy enough to replace. I am with Three in Australia and very happily running Duttys Roms on my phone. I doubt flashing an Asutralian ROM will fix the TomTom isssue. I would be checking on its Authenticity and chasing it up with the supplier rather than HTC.
The Australian (non network branded) TyTn2's don't come with Tomtom taster, so an AU rom will not allow you to install Tomtom either... hope you didn't pay full AU retail price.
No Asian Tytn2 comes with Tomtom either AFAIK, even if it installs it will only give you a choice of US/Canada maps to download... making it useless.
Best bet is to buy Tomtom or another full version nav program. (and get onto whoever sold it to you asking why an "AU" phone would have the US nav taster (tomtom) bundled and not Copilot7 which is the official Australian bundled nav program.) If you got it from Ebay it is almost definately an asian grey market import... usually an SE Asia OEM phone (which have nothing bundled but Phone Backup, then some bad sellers include a useless US software disk to make it look more legit.)
I've got TomTom running on my TyTN II without a problem. All you have to do is go back one version to the .30 install and you wont have the rom issue. then you just need to copy all the maps and voices down to your storage card. I found the older version of TomTom on mininova.
Hi
My TyTN cam with Map King. I purchased TomTom as an option.
My ROM version is 1.82.707.0 WWE from 11/03/07, so its old. The phone has been working fine until i tried io install the Tomtom. I am also on the Telstra network. Thanks for the feedback so far.
