Update your Sprint TP ROM

Over the past week, two highly anticipated Windows Mobile devices were released in North America. We have the Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2 and the Verizon HTC Touch Pro 2. Both HTC phones finally include a 3.5mm headphone port, unlike previous HTC phones. The specs for each phone is almost identical this time around, but the major difference is in pricing. The Verizon TP2, released September 11, is $199.99 and Sprint’s TP2, released September 8, is $349.99 after rebates and renewals for both. Why the price difference? Most likely specific calling/data plans differ in more ways than one. Check out videos of the Verizon TP2 unboxing by CallMeMarc and a review of the Sprint TP2 by MobileTechReview below this post. There’s also a nice unboxing of the Verizon TP2 by Wirefly. You can see the full overview of the Sprint and Verizon versions from HTC.

You’re probably familiar with your device’s capability to share its data connection with your PC via a mini-usb cable. You might also be familiar with expensive software like WMWiFiRouter and PDAnet. Well, WMPoweruser has recently discovered an app, called HTC WiFi Router, that lets you turn your device into a WiFi router for free. That’s right, for free!

Note: After installation, set your WEP key and connect to the net with your laptop.

HTC MyConnect 2.0 and PL@NET were released by HTC. PL@NET is a mobile service portal for Taiwan which apparently went live on the 1st of July but the portal is not in English , but you can have a look around and read through most of it using an online translator. HTC claims that this service aims to bring a host of shopping, travel and entertainment services to mobile phones.

HTC MyConnect 2.0 looked like its an application for the mobile device which connects to PL@NET and the user can access the service offered by HTC via PL@NET. The application is not in english either. you can download it from here. Once u launch the application , If u dont have Chinese language file you will get a box which might be asking you a Yes on No question. I wasnt able to connect to any pages by clicking on those fancy icons you see to your right. If any of you guys are from Taiwan and if you are able to use this service please inform us about your experience with this new service from HTC. According to HTC this platform will give handset users access to several Internet retailers, including travel planning from ezTravel, music from Warner Music, books from Eslite, online magazines from Touch Book, news from UDN, scenic-spot information sharing from NaviGuide, concert tickets from Era Ticket and Arts Ticket, and shopping via HappyGoCard.

Touch Diamond plays a full-screen video tutorial for you the first time you boot the device up. The video tutorial teaches you how to use the new TouchFLO 3D interface.

There’s no audio in the video, but it apparently looks great on the Touch Diamond’s 640×480 pixel screen as per the info from pocketnow.com

After the long wait we finally know for sure that the rumored HTC Touch Diamond is on its way. The device has some pretty nice interface tech that they’re calling TouchFLO 3D that heavily emphasizes one-touch browsing and single-finger dialing. They emphasized web accessibility, zoom-in navigation with “just one hand” and not too many fingers. As expected, the device is loaded with Windows Mobile 6.1, a VGA screen and HSDPA 7.2, among other nice specs.
