A ROM update for the HTC Touch Diamond was released on Wednesday, giving the phone a few added capabilities, with the addition of the 850MHz GSM band for calling -- but not 850MHz 3G over HSPA for data -- and a quicker response from the TouchFLO 3D touchscreen interface chief among them. Users who perform the upgrade will also be able to use the EDGE data network. With the update, HTC will more specificially speed up the tab switching function along with the movement of the TouchFLO 3D interface. Eight other smaller fixes are part of the new software, including the occasional lack of signal, the sound alert delay after the arrival of SMS messages and speeding up the loading times of the home page.
Smaller quirks such as disabling the tendency of the screen shutting off again five seconds after users wake it up during a phone call and improving the audio quality when the audio booster is enabled were also addressed.
Rounding off the changes users are likely to notice are making the navigator control responsive in camera mode, and a new random access bar on the screen that allows selecting weather information in various countries and cities. [via Gizmodo]
