The Touch Diamond/Pro Tips and Tricks Guide

A very bold project from HTC, the HTC Touch Diamond, has shipped it's 1 millionth piece in August 2008, just three months shy from it's release, all this without even launching it in the USA. Same company predicts, in the same bold way, to cross the 2 million barrier by the end of 2008. This makes it the most popular of the HTC devices ...and Diamond for everyone!

Then came the HTC Touch Pro (Raphael), more or less the same product, larger battery, a bit faster, microSD card slot, the bigger brother for the Diamond, launched the same month Diamond hit 1 million sells.

These two smartphones are considered the most important products from HTC for the year 2008. They're very powerful, but the manuals only scratch the surface as to how much potential these devices actually have. We've put together the most comprehensive, complete and organized list of Tips and Tricks for the two forementioned devices, that will help you get the most out of them. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did putting it together, and feel free to respond in the discussion thread and suggest additions! Read on for the article!

This is the bible to my TD. I was interested in it when I read Adam's original review, and Jenna's new review finally convinced me to buy one. I learned a lot from this. Thank you very much.

Hi,
Usefull tips. I have a couple of questions though.

1. For some reason, when I use the slide keyboard, the numeric row only works as shortcuts (pressing one opens "start menu", etc). Is there a way to change this so I get 1 when I press 1? and so on...

2. The device is used, and has been given by my employer. It does not seem to have Touchflo 3D enabled. How can I do this?

Thank you
