Has anyone bought an HTC Touch in Doha ?

Hello everyone. I had asked a friend of mine who was on his way back from Singapore to get me the HTC Touch, since it was out of stock in Carrefour. Problem is, the ROM built is for Asia Pacific Region and Qatar does not come in its network list. I need to know if that’s the same case with the phones bought in Doha. If not, then would it be possible to borrow the support cd that comes in the box to install the ROM for this region?

Thanks.....

You CANNOT flash the Rom with the given CD.

You will have to find the ROM online and then flash your phone or take it to the service center to flash it for you (usually 50-100QR)

All Asian phones work in Qatar fine I should add. Even if it's not in the 'network list' it'll still connect to Qtel fine.
