Hi Richard,

I got my XDA II from Uplands last year and I can't fault them, so I'd be happy to get an XDA IIs from them as well, and their prices are certainly good!

Could you let us know when you get yours? I'll be interested to see when their stock starts to come through. Gonna call them now and ask about upgrades....

Edit: update on upgrades - I could have one, but it would cost me £285 cos I'm not a particularly heavy user. :(
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] Apec:
Yeah uplands are good cant go wrong with them + they are very competitive in price. Stock will be due in on monday 15th nov.. cant wait!
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] :
12th Nov

I've just spoken to a few O2 shops in London area, they either tell me they have no idea when they're due or that 12th of November is release date and not to expect anything for at least 2 weeks after then :\

I've got 4 phones due an upgrade with an O2 reseller (unfortunately not direct with O2, corporate account with CarphoneWarehouse so will probably delay things further) - itching to get my hands on one!
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] billda:
Does anyone have any idea when this device will be available in the Netherlands? Through one of those mobile provider? (T-Mob, Orange, Telfort?) It seems that its out in UK and Germany and some places in US and other countries, but not yet here in NL, I've checked several stores and can't find convincing replies. I am keen to check this one out.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] :
More delays

Just spoke to Uplands - they have said -

"Yes, O2 advised us yesterday that the release of

the handsets has been delayed again, and to expect delivery by around Monday of next week {15th Nov}. Unfortunately that means we cannot yet guarantee a delivery date"

Bumsticks :\
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] ed207_us:

The latest so far....

o2 Business site lists it as £179

http://shop.o2.co.uk/cgi-bin/o2uk-bs/jsp/greatDeals/GreatDeals.jsp

Don't get excited - if you go that link, it leads to a dead end page with a faulty landline number

They were told about this a week ago, but have done nothing to correct it.

Phoning their various sales teams - who seem to be given zilch info, so obviously the management are crap - I get these various stories:

"Price matrix says £350, even for upgrade" (Business, offline)

"£249, but only available offline" (Business, offline)

The problem is I'm on o2 100 Business, which is not nearly as good value as the 'Special online tariff' the £/mb rate is almost double. But if I buy an XDA IIs offline, how easy is it for me to switch to the online tariff?????

Cheers

(Personal purchase online at £249 does not seem to be a problem, though no idea about the stock levels)
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] :
Cheers, although personally I'm holding my breath for the O2 XDA IIs specifically, because of the contract discount (I have handsets due an upgrade) and the cool handset colour :)

Just wish I had my contracts with Uplands who seem to be on the ball, CarPhoneWareHouse aren't even aware of this handset :`(

Could be a loooong wait for them to get up to speed, I'll leave it a couple of weeks and start chasing them.

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] :
Those who have it.. what's your opinion?

Hello guys!

i am thinking of bying the xda iis, and so I keep reading your posts for some time now. Can the people who have got it in their hands, tell the rest , whats their opinion now? I have read in some forums that the screen is not that good compared with similar products, or that the slide-in keyboard does not look firm and could be looser than it should.

And also the main question, as the main reason of its success is that it combines a pda and a phone : how good is the phone ? reception-wise and speech quality, etc? ?

Sorry for the many questions, but replying to these would be really helpful!

Thank you in advance and enjoy your new gadjets!

Haros
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] ricmoo2004:
The Screen is OK, It's not as bright as my Axim X30High, but it's perfectly fine, voice quality is in my opinion excellant, It looks fantastic, and the keyboard is not flimsy or wobbly and i regard it as an excellant addition, text messages & emails just fly from the fingers now, in the dark it lights up a brilliant blue colour that looks really cool!

With regards to the camera it's not something i will use very often, but picture quality is OK i don't know how to tell the Mpixels of it, it will do 640x480 pics, so i guess that means it's .3mp, i don't know.

I have a canon powershot G5 for pictures.

On the CD you do get the voice dial app

Hope this helps

O2 XDAIIs Does it have the Blackberry Client?

Hi Gyuys

Can one of you excited folk that has the XDAIIs tell me whether this version form O2 has the Blackberry client software built into the ROM (previously released in the last XDAII ROM)?

Many Thanks

Chris
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] jdee246:
Re: O2 XDAIIs Does it have the Blackberry Client?

The IIs doesn't have blackberry. O2 are saying early next year when a BB client will be available for it.

The keyboard takes a bit of getting used to, but after that - I really couldn't do without it anymore. Really great to fire off quick emails and text.

The camera is exactly the same spec as xda2 - 0.3mp.

I would suggest that the extended rom unbloker would reveal the CAB files for the BB client on a BB ROMed XDA2 - I can't see what the problem would be running that on an XDA2s

According to some posts the Bluetooth Stack on th 02s is much better than the I-mate, or t-mobile. can someone post the bluetooth configuration ie version numbers under the advanced button on the Bluetooth manager and /or upload the bluetooth files.

Hi there! I'm a long time lurker, first time poster so the most important thing to do is to say HI to the forum members! :P

Secondly, I have to say thanks to those of you who led/encouraged me to buy an XDA IIs from Uplands - I got great friendly service from a couple of their lovely ladies and my new handset is everything I hoped it would be!

My new Galaxy S4 makes more beeps and boops than my electronics projects. I've managed to figure out what most of them mean, but at seemingly random times throughout the day, my S4 will make a sound like two bubbles popping. The second one is higher in pitch than the first. The "bubbles popping" is what you'd hear on a children's cartoon when bubbles are popped.

What does this sound mean? I've delved through as many settings menus as I can find and haven't been able to determine where this sound is coming from or what it means.

[7 Mozart General] Fas1h:
I am on HTC Explorer right now, it's Android and rooted and using Sense 4, and for the past year I have been a devoted android user (i love it <3) but getting this HTC 7 Mozart in almost the same price as explorer, so wondering if I should make the switch.

So android and windows, no comparison, its basically just preference.

But my reason for switching is camera, I read its not too good (as per 8mp) but it must be a hell lot better than explorer's 3.2 mp, right?

And then how are the free apps (note not the paid one),

I have never seen, let alone used a windows phone. But I like to keep changing phones, and after Symbian, iphone 3 and then some 6 different Androids, I ought to give Windows a shot (after all I love it on my laptop).

So anybody who has used explorer and mozart both can help me out?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] PDXKris:
Did you ever find a solution for this? I've got the same symptoms on a Galaxy SIII, currently running the latest builds of CM10.1.

A build from 3/8 which I used for quite a while worked fine, but sometime in May I updated to a fresh build and found it was broke, all builds since then have also had the issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] unni_kmr:
No. I went back to 15 Feb 2013 nightly build.

The app has the problem even with the 10.1 stable build. The developer promptly replied to my initial query with a debug build of DRV (which has some new features also :)). The logs it produced didn't indicate any problem with the app. After that I didn't follow up with him. I will do it this Saturday.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] unni_kmr:
Today, I did a factory reset on my phone, wiped everything and installed ‘Cyanogenmod 10.1 stable’ along with ‘DRV 3.0 Beta 2’. Unfortunately, the problem still exists. Given below are the generated logs:

ADB Log

DRV 3.0 Beta 2 Log (this is from a version I got from the developer).

I also captured a video at the same time the logs were being generated. The video can be viewed from the links below:

Low Quality (96 MB)

High Quality (518 MB)

I had this video captured so that the developer can understand clearly what's happening. The phone slowing down can be seen from 5th minute onwards.

I have also written to the developer.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] 1BadWolf:
That's the best idea since the problem is most likely the app and not the ROM. The app most likely needs an update to keep up with the constant updates that the ROM receives.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] unni_kmr:
Tried AutoBoy BlackBox app today. It also freezes the phone similar to how it happens with DRV. The main difference is that with DRV, the freeze usually happens from the beginning of recording, where as with AutoBoy, it happens when I try to come out of background mode. The phone freezing/hanging part is quite similar in both apps. Can you confirm if this is happening with you?

Also, please recommend some other background recording apps I can try so that I can help in finding the root cause of this issue?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] PDXKris:
I'm afraid I won't be very helpful going forward. My phone is provided via my employer, and I was just upgraded to a Galaxy S4 that doesn't have the issue (and I no longer have access to the S3). Sorry!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] unni_kmr:
Just to update:

The developer reviewed my logs and has come to the conclusion that the problem could be with the ROM.

I also tried Autoguard Pro. It also has the exact same issue when put in background mode.

With the phone off, hold VOL+ and Power.

When the phone vibrates, release power, continue to hold VOL+.
