you didn't mean you had it activated through alltel did you? cause I was told you couldn't do that. did you ever figure out what the problem was with the all progams soft key? it will still only work the first time you use it until a soft reset.
also I accidently changed my media player skin and the original ones not coming back up as an option. any ideas how to get it back?

yes i have my sprint diamond activated on alltel, i have full data, voice, mms, everything. the lady was confued when i went in there last friday, with a sprint diamond, running alltel ROM. when the phone is not out yet, she finally just said, " i am not going to ask, you know more then me anyways, so whereever you got that, good job."

Softkey i did see that and i am working on that, if i find something i will let you know. also you will need the new skin files. i will get them for you tomw. i am not at my place right now. wont be back until tomw. so once i get back i will see what i can find for you.

that's awesome! when I asked them if it was possible they said oh no it HAS to be an alltel phone. I just shoulda known they was fulla crap. that just may open up a few new options for me.

Con, if you need someone to test it in a roaming state, I'm your man. I'm always in a roaming state or just a state of confusion.

Imagine the retail drones' surprise when I show up with an Alltel branded Diamond that THEY can't even have yet...

hey Con, I just downloaded skyfire from here--> http://www.skyfire.com/users/login
It asks if I want to make it my default browser, will this overide my opera 9.5 or what? I dont really understand what it means by default.
I tried the beta of this a couple months ago and it was just to slow but this version seems much faster

Hey Con, how do you like the Diamond's Touch Flow 3d vs the Touch Flow 2d on your HTC Touch Rom? I went to the local Alltel store to try out the diamond and thought that it was very sluggish and I like my HTC Touch 2d version better. The screen resolution was a nice upgrade though. What are your thoughts after actually using it on a day to day basis?

I love your roms you put out, and appreciate your hard work! I was starting to hate my touch until i upgraded it with your touch flow 2d wm 6.1 rom, and now i love it!

when i first got the diamond, i was actually disappointed. i mean i had basically the same programs on my touch. and actually i still am a little bit. The screen is very nice to have. i love that. when you view ppcgeeks from your phone it is very nice.

Also the 4gb built in memory is a little low. I figured i would be able to handle it. but it is already full, and i would like to add so much more to it.

the screen is a big plus though. battery life also is not the best, but i am working on a rom for the diamond, and i think i got the battery working very good at this time.

also i do not like how the text shows up so much larger, but i am working on that has well. also the form factor of the diamond is very nice. it makes the touch seem like it is very very wide.

but yeah the touchflo 3d, did seem a little slow compared to the touchflo2d. and i still use my touch quite a bit. that is the joy of having a family plan to yourself. you can carry two phones, and use the one you like.
