I had Symbian too. UIQ3 (SE) and S60(Nokia).

Symbian is optimized for a limited set of tasks. The one that the manufacturer think it's good for their users. Well, some users(like me) found that the manufacturer didn't optimised the device for them. I would like more. Now i have WinMo and i'm satisfied with it. I would like to try Linux either.

With WinMo you're limited by hardware only. There are a lot of software developers and a lot of possibilities due to the platform, that you can customize the way you want
[XPERIA X1 General] Ganondolf:
i have had 3 symbian phones (2 uiq), 2 from sony and one from panasonic. i changed my w960i (uiq) for the x1. i have found the wm6.1 to be better than symbian but symbian is very good if u need a standard phone with some extra stuff (office/emails etc) but its very hard to add or change the phone to suit your needs. all that being said i think the n97 will be a very good phone but is based at a different area to the x1.

this is how i see it:

Normal phones - standard phones, nice camera

Android / Iphone / N97 - Style phones, looks nice, easy to use, extra apps

WM / Blackberry - Business phones, very adaptable(WM)
[XPERIA X1 General] Arju:
Well in my opinion why even bother to compare them as your trying to compare wm against symbian.. well n97 looks and is really great but the OS is making it less attractive as xperia has wm os.. well the os of n97 is restricted as there only will be firmware updates and no upgrades of the rom it self as wm 6.1 > wm 6.5 wm 7 ... symbian os 9.4 is restricted to it self... (i'm a symbian moderator at another forum but i do see this comparing as neutral and bringing forward the facts.. )

well you all probably by this post know where my vote goes.. ;)

[XPERIA X1 General] raylax:
xp1

Well ive had a N96 symbian and one thing is for sure

the phone suite app works easyer and faster then that idiotic active sync bull that microsoft put on the market.

Meanwhile that symbian needs a certtificate to get any illegal or legal software on the phone is frustrating at least

But that nokia bought and now ownes symbyan and that its impossible to get any software on their phones without a certificate made me return to windows mobile

In short nokia is more stable better in their software and just makes exelent phones and frankly is more popular

(See it as mercedes... you can buy an audi with all the trimmings that even drives better but it still wont keep its value like a merc.)

sony's xperia once you have one and you take that awfull active sync for granted it will blow the nokia out of the water

AND.... Dont even get me started about crazy man i harvest sourcecodes jobs and let me decide what you can put on my Iphone that you bought for hundreds of dollars.
[XPERIA X1 General] ratchetnclank:
I currently have a nokia n95 and i hate it. Worst phone ive ever bought.

GPS is crap.

5mp camera = 5mp of blur.

The battery lasts 4 hours on standby before it dies.

Sound quality in phone calls is terrible.

I've had to reflash the firmware at least 4 times due to it bugging out.

The phone randomly switches itself off every now and then.

Build quality is rubbish the + volume button doesnt work and has caved in.

Can't wait to get my xperia this month :D

I've noticed the recent flurry of 6.5 ROM's in the last few days on these boards but noticed that they have been for specific devices. Are there any enterprising ROM cookers out there that could cook up a ROM for the Microsoft Device Emulator?

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] jthm23:
The safest way would be to flash from your sdcard as wine does not support the latest activesync well.

You can also go for a virtual windows running on vmware for example, it wouldn't be a real "flash from linux" but it's stable enough.

However, you can sync with a pim like kontact or evolution and install cabs the way activesync does with SynCE.

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] cpnichols:
So I hear everyone complaining about battery life, but have had no issues on my end. SO I am really wondering if there are issues, or at least let people know that not everyone has these issues.

I did install LumosWizard, which is did improve my battery life.

I generally charge my device every night, but when I do, my battery level is around 60 to 70% on a normal day and 30% on a heavy use day.

This is actually an improvement over my old Mogul.

If you don't have battery issues, let people know. I can't be the only person... can I?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ldrn:
When I saw the title, I thought the thread was going to be asking how to get the battery issues everyone else was having. :)

I have not had any battery issues yet myself, either. I am not sure if it is just my usage patterns or what I am used to from my usage patterns, though -- my Touch pro tends to be plugged in to a laptop quite often.

I searched around and was unable to find an answer to this.

When listening to streaming radio either through Last.fm or streamfurious I can not receive phone calls? If anyone calls me it goes directly to voice mail. As soon as I stop internet radio calls come through again.

Does anyone know of a way to fix this?

Thanks in advance.

[G1 General] ~~Tito~~:
If your not on 3G then it is because you are using all of your 2G service. If you use 3G then you can use it for data and internet and 2G for texts and calls.

Someone correct me if I am wrong.
[G1 General] jashsu:
Bleh, wrong thread. Delete plz!
[G1 General] 18.4009:
Not knowing exactly how our phones carry the signal for internet and voice calls that seems like a logical answer to me. Huge drag for me though :( I love turning on internet radio in the car and piping it through my system. Even on 2g it sounds and streams great. But the lack of not receiving calls I suppose I will have to stop that habit lol. Who knows when 3g will roll out in my area...

oh well. Thanks for the info.

Doug
[G1 General] djind:
It's true that it's impossible to use data and voice at the same time on 2g, but it's the app that should pauze itself for an incoming call. Or Android should have been able to do this! Atleast that was the case with my last phone. While checking something on internet, call display appeared on incoming calls and browser disappeared. Call ends, browser reappears.
[G1 General] 18.4009:
Well maybe it is something that just has to be change with the current internet music streaming software. I have tried three different ones and they all do this so it doesn't look good for a pause feature when a call comes through.

I have no idea how hard that would be to add to the current software. I suppose if you had 3g you wouldn't worry about this but as we all know, T-Mobiles 3g coverage is lacking.

Ok, a question that needs answering that has popped up in my mind from time to time is about resolution.

#1. If a person buys a Asus P565, or Touch Diamond with 640x480 VGA res display, will the games and programs that used to run in 320x240 on my TYTN res be now a small square on the screen?

#2. Or again, If a person buys a Sony Xperia X1 or the Asus P835 (Glaxy 7) and is running a program that used to run on a 320x240 display but now it is running on the Xperia that has a 800x480 will it be in a small square, or will it be full screen and all distorted, will it be cut off on the sides, what happens?

I have hard reset to many times to count, flashed alltel stock 6.0 and 6.1 ROM's. and flashed several custom ROM's now and still no EVDO service. My data comes in it's just as soon as my phone connects it drops to 1X service which is slow slow slow...

I have been fighting this for over a week now, been searching here and over at PPCGeeks with no luck, anybody got any ideas?

[Touch Pro CDMA] daiviien:
I am not responsible for malfunctions your phone may have from this. I am having no problems what so ever from it. This can be completely reversed after you do it.

(This may or may not work for other versions of the Touch Pro. I only have a Sprint one to try it on. Some phones, like Verizon, you are able to remove this annoying sound without having to do this mod.)

Ever find it really annoying when you are on the phone with someone and you get a incoming text message and your phone makes a really loud and annoying sound 3 times in a row to the point where you can't even hear your caller?

Here is how to disable that.

Download the attachment from the link:

www.megaupload.com/?d=1G0DC4CW

This will include Total Commander v2.5, a modified version of the "notify.wma" file which is basically silence, and a backup original version of the "notify.wma" in case you want to undo this mod.

Now, heres how you do it.

1. Open the .zip and put the tcmdpocketarm.cab (Total Commander) and the notify.wma files on your storage card.

2. Locate and Install tcmdpocketarm.cab (Total Commander)

3. Go to Start > Programs > Total Commander

4. Locate notify.wma files on your storage card, select and hold and click copy

5. Locate your "Windows" folder then tap and hold to paste.

This should overwrite your notify.wma file on your phone. When you get a phone call and receive a text message you will no longer hear the annoying loud sound.

Please let me know how this worked for everyone.

Thanks!

[Touch Pro CDMA] rjmjr69:
Why not edit it in the registy instead?

HKEY_CURRENT_USER

CONTROL PANEL

SOUNDS

INCALLBUZZ

Change Script so value is blank so DELETE P

or even delete the sound files name

Save wait a few minutes restart phone

Or you could even change it to a new sound that isnt so loud or annoying maybe something with one beep so you do know you have a text I find this feature useful
[Touch Pro CDMA] smotrs:
Both methods are sound. No pun intended. :)

I've used the same method RJM described already.

[Touch Pro CDMA] daiviien:
Yeah, I understand that. IDK i just worried I will mess something up. Althou, i am going to try to ***** to sprint and get a new phone anyways cuz my screen likes to turn off on me WHILE im typing on it. Also randomly turns on. Only prob it dont do it enough for me to really prove it. I may have some tricks up my sleeves thou for that. Also I have a charging prob while talking on the phone.
[Touch Pro CDMA] smotrs:
You don't have to prove it. If your within your 30 days then it's no questions asked. After 30 days it may take a bit more but definitely NOT impossible. I made them take back my Instinct after 3 months and got a Pro to replace it.
[Touch Pro CDMA] daiviien:
Yeah, I had my TP about 3 months...

Shooot man really you got them to trade an instinct in for a TP? DAMN! I canceled my instinct paid 200 ETF and bought a TP... I also got rid of my instinct at the 3 month point. That thing was cool at 1st then sucked.
