I hate to break it to you guys, but HTC certainly knows what we want in the most awesome ultimate phone ever, they don't need our help. The problem is that reality (physical and financial) gets in the way.

That, and the carriers themselves are pushing development as much as we are.
[General Topics] poetryrocksalot:
Not exactly financial....more like economical....

HTC can make the ultimate phone, except it's not the way to increase revenues.

Also, there isn't a lot of physical limitations. Everything is usually economical.

That would be like some superphone, but it would never happen because it would cost so much because it is... Far too good for anytime soon lol.

- tv out

- DPAD !!! my god why did the rip it off the touch pro 2

- vga screen or wvga

- qwerty keyboard

- hard buttons, lots of them. like HTC Kaiser.

- regular SDHC slot

- IR port
[General Topics] frauhottelmann:
I don't see the need of an IR-Port any more...

Don't forget: 32 GB of ROM (you put all your music on it...) - flash it once and ALL is gone. I think 1 GB ROM is good enough and then (like the Omnia 2) additional storage (and make different models like 8, 16 and 32 GB).

A real SD slot would be really nice (especially money wise), but not SDHC, but SDXC!

I think 5-8 MP should be the maximum for a phone...you know, the lenses aren't that great. And zoom-wise you could use liquid lenses (not really ready for the market though)!

I guess since WM 7 is supposed to come out soon as the premium OS above 6.5, that would then be my option!

HDMI out is always good.

Integrate it with Windows 7 device stage...

I haven't seen a chipset that does it, but more then tri-band for UMTS would be great!

Some Sense-UI - TouchFlo 3D mixture! Or both separately...

Make it thinner (I know it's not possible now with all that stuff in it, but still, it's wishful thinking...)

From what I heard, HTC is on that, but a capacitive resistive touch screen. You know, capacitive is nice when you use your finger and want to pinch for zooming, but once it's winter and I am wearing gloves, it's not working any more. So essentially a multi touch resistive screen with high sensitivity!

BTW, this comes from a WM Standard user...

Why make a pro 3 when the Leo is gonna be the perfect device:rolleyes:
[General Topics] orb3000:
Mmmm.. I doubt it

Leo seems really col but no hardware keyboard, so its not perfect:)

Just my opinion,
[General Topics] Marcus Tavares:
I fully agree the hardware keyboard is a MUST have!!! It is just that what is missing on HTC Touch HD. Probably HTC Leo Pro!? ;)
[General Topics] Marcus Tavares:
davidornm, I agree with you despite of the fact for me the 32GB is important and not a big deal to add. Nokia has just added this on its N97 phone. My friend who has a HTC Diamond transfer data to their 4GB flash memory three time faster them me on my TP2. By the way I love TP2 but as an crazy guys I'm looking forward for new devices.
[General Topics] RomanovRaphael:
frankly speaking,i'm myself inspired by iphone market...i really hope HTC could built one phone that could last its economy for as long as it can rather than creating more new model...my lecturer says that Iphone does lots of survey and they spent million of dollar just on the survey...asking people what ppl want rather than creating new model as the technology grows
[General Topics] Monty Burns:
Guys

just because you have 16/32gig on board, it does NOT mean when you flash you wipe the storage. Thats not how it has to work. I used to try all sorts of diferent images on my Omnia and you just tell it to flash system rom only and not the storage space. Countless flashes, never once had to reload my music.

And as we are talking DREAM device here (note its a DREAM device) my processor would have to be an I7 920 or better :D

But, if we are talking realistic devices, I want a device that just works out of the box and "does exactly what it says on the tin". TBH, the acer M900 I have just about does everything it says with the exception of the headphone setup.

HTC Touch Pro 3 is a nice phone but the price is not so good. I even can buy a computer with the same price although I can't make a call by computer. Maybe after they adjust the price, this phone will be popular for most people.

[General Topics] Marcus Tavares:
The Touch Pro 3 spec is on PDADB.net. It is not as the Dream PDA from this thread but getting better. I don't understand why they don't launch a really powerful device to differentiate them self from competitors. I would pay USD 1,200 for having it.

Also the Touch Pro 3 (Leo) specs on PDADB doesn't have Hardware Keyboard. So I believe it is most likely to be a Diamond 3 than a Touch Pro 3. :D

Anyway see the link:

[General Topics] Spiderm@n_:
Yeah, right.

You could have put some graphics accelerator, like some GoForce, or some Intel, or atleast the Imageon.

Yeah, but the HD doesn't support usnig the ExtUSB for phones, and I found the S100 remote control very usefull. 1920*1080 resolution on a 3.8" display, HDMI, projector, you dream a lot, that thing will be as big as 3 HTC Universals, and I don't think the battery will last more than 15 minutes work time. The resolution of the Rhodium is good enough, also better screen will be appreciated, some OLED probably, also capacitive touch sensor, why not 803.11n, connectors for external antennas, like those on Kaiser (TyTN II), really, at least ATI/AMD Imageon, but some GoForce 5500 won't be bad. Camera/Capture button, Xenon flash. That's what I think the Rhodium is really missing to make it one good enough phone. Also the OLED will make the phone cost 4 times it's current price (or more), but LED or even some better TFT will be fine.

Wait, there is a device that will kick.....

All PPC out there, and for those that said a device with what we want will be too expensive, hear this.....

They Are (HTC and the others) playing with ALL OF US, IT IS NOT TRUE THAT IT SHOULD BE EXPENSIVE.

Why do I know thissss???!!!!!

Well, it happens that I can tell you that they can easily sell the TP2 for $200 to be fair with them... WITHOUT CONTRACT and I CAN TELL ......

..... I'm 95% sure that there is a device coming with more than what Marcus Tavares specifies here, and it is a design from a person that it is not in this business and its not HTC or any other blood(money) sucking company and yet have been told that it will be available for around $200 without contract.

Let's wait for it, it was time that some honest business man deliver to us what we deserved for our money.

I CANNOT GIVE ANY DETAILS SO DO NOT BOTHER TO ASK ME ANYTHING ABOUT THE DEVICE I WON'T TELL.
[General Topics] WaltA:
Eliminate the 3.5mm jack. IMHO, dumb idea for the TP2. Why, you might ask, well, my gripe is that adding the 3.5mm jacked moved the USB connector over from its normal, HTC, center position.

Given an 480x800 screen, an OS supported 480x640 mode with a virtual D-pad. This way apps could "see" a normal VGA display and their expected D-pad input device.

A variable speed processor that could intelligently handle speed and power effectively.
[General Topics] christophocles:
No way, 3.5mm jack is an absolute must-have dealbreaker for me. They just need to move it on the top of the phone where it belongs :rolleyes:

I do kinda miss the d-pad on my TP2 but I like the huge screen. It's a trade-off.

Faster processor is a must. Also more RAM. However (and I'm sure some will disagree), the resistive screen is a keeper. It need the precision to use a stylus with very tiny things (like remote desktop).
[General Topics] Osama Shah:
For me the best deal would be, having the hardware of HTC HD2 inside what is now the HTC touch pro2... MUST is the capacitative touch screen.. I'm tired of my pocket making the phone calls for me.

Personally I own an X1, and it SUCKS.. SONY messed up with the Xperia and i wanted to shift to the touch pro2, but seeing the specs of the HD2, i will humbly wait until HTC comes up with a capacitative touch screen for the touch pro series. And that will happen near the end of 2010 or so i predict, when multi touch will be officially supported by Windows mobile 7.

[General Topics] Badwolve1:
If i had a capacitive screen on it and they made the builtin stylus, i would still get accuracy with stylus but it would be more finger friendly

Love the keyboard and asthetics, well... nothing needs to be done ther, but perhaps if they gave it a holographic projecter that could make a 1,000 watt speaker, it would be nice :D

on a more sane note, a 1.3 GHZ processer with an optionol hot-swappale 1 GHZ processer which would be more power efficient, so i could test out BETA apps that i had made that require loads of CPU due to my high skill in code optamisantion :rolleyes: (Can't spell :D) and a low power consuming CPU that i could change as easily as the battery

4 hardkeys on front for Call, Menu, Back, and End

3.5mm not so big a deal, i have a 30g classic iPod that does

this is the big success...

if the thread creator himself was executive dir.. of htc,even he wouldnt dare to make tp3...

htc had revolutionized mobile world..

htc knows that its cust... are from wide range from lower,middle and uper class...

so in my opinon htc is the only one which is purely successful..

see nokia..**** for almost everyone..makes new device everymonth and end up with disaster...no features.only just small improvement..and u will waste all ur money....

Hi. I just switched over to the Palm Threaded SMS app, rather then using Windows 6.1 default sms/mms application. The Palm Threaded SMS app works great, other then one minor problem. When I receive an mms my phone connects to Media Net and downloads the message as its suppose to do, but then the phone stays connected to the Media Net network unless I manually disconnect it. Any ideas on how to get the phone to disconnect from media net once the message has been received? Thanks.

I've just installed morphgear on my phone and tried to play sega game but it doesnt give me fullscreen game play i just get a little screen in the middle and a really small controll pad. Any ideas?

Thanks!
[Touch HD General] montag09:
Yes, you can play in fullscreen mode. Play a bit with the options, I did and I played with fullscreen. About the control pad, you need to download some customized pad (morph gear allows this) so that it fits with the screen size. However, you will need to deal with a big issue: no multitouch for control pad. You won't be able to use directional pad and pres a fire button at the same time. If you find a solution for this, please post here...
[Touch HD General] Lunandro:
Hi, look by Sega Options. There would be a Screen Size Option. Choose there Auto Scale.. then you would have a fullscreen.
[Touch HD General] kaymado:
Morphgear multitouch problem

Hey montag09, the workaround this is to use both the screen touch function (for example to move) and the hard keys as jump or shot for example. (I'm using centre key).

I would like to make the controller area bigger though...

Still need to find that...

i have this phone for 1 year now and in one week it managed to screw up two batteries. Is there any way to fix a pm16a battery cause i'm not buying another one. now i have 4 batteries with similar simptoms: they don't charge anymore. two of them show the red light, one actually shows orange light but doesn't charge and one shows a flickering red light. I'm aware that these batteries actually need their own current to charge (which is quite dumb).

If it helps somehow the 3rd battery was charged to 98% when it suddenly dropped to 0 and phone turned off. I left the last one to discharge to 2% but then the phone turned off and now shows red light when charging.

Any help or advice that doesn't involve buying a new battery or trashing my phone would be very much appreciated :(
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General] shade0723:
ok i managed to reactivate the batteries so for those of you who are getting this problem just check if your charger (original or not) outputs the required voltage. It won't reactivate the batteries if it isn't strong enough. In my case my brother's charger did the trick so i'll have to get a new one. Remember that red light indicates that the battery is not charging either because of a hardware malfunction or the current it gets is not strong enough.
[Touch HD General] trep0nema:
Ok, I just noticed my Touch HD wouldnt recover from landscape mode using Dutty's 1.80 EXTERME ROM. It was working really well but i couldnt reset it thru the software (mainly because the reset manager doesnt like landscape mode for some reason). So i reset it from the reset button...

Now after it boots, all it displays is the HTC logo in the middle with Calendar and Contacts down the bottom.

It is painfully slow and i noticed in the \Windows folder there are 1950 _manila files :confused:

Is this a bad sign? Is there some file(s) i can check to see what is going on while I can still access it?

I cant seem to copy anything to the SD card and i dont want to start flashing it again if it bricks the device.

any ideas? thx
[Touch HD General] trep0nema:
ok, after some sweating and failed attempts to back stuff up, i removed the 8GB microSD card... and.... all back to normal. Looks like the SD card has somehow brought the whole system to its knees.:(

I'm sure this is answered all over the place but I can't seem to locate a definitive answer.

A lot of roms cooks advise hard resetting device after flashing - won't his return it to the way it was when I bought it? i.e. with the rom from Orange (in my case) instead of the one I just flashed.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Borbosch:
No, with flashing your device you overwrite the existing Rom (the Orange Rom). Every Hard Reset returns the state of your device to the standard settings of the flashed Rom.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Skylight71:
Hi,

i got a "small" Problem with the 4GB MoviNAND memory (internal storage) of my HTC Touch Diamond ...

My old HTC Touch Diamond was broken and i got a new one from HTC (warranty exchange).

This new Diamond got already the new Firmware GER_2.03.407.2.

When i tried to transfer my data to the MoviNAND memory i got always write errors at a certain point.

After formatting the MoviNAND memory the capacity did reduce from 3832.50 MiB to 3775.06 MiB and i got no write errors anymore.

After a Hard-Reset + clearing the MoviNAND the capacity was even reduced to 3768.50 MiB and went back to 3775.06 MiB after formatting again.

After a downgrade to firmware GER_1.93.407.1 and Hard-Reset + clearing the MoviNAND the capacity was back at 3832.50 MiB or 3832.48 MiB after formatting again. Without any write errors!

After an upgrade to firmware GER_2.03.407.2 and Hard-Reset + clearing the MoviNAND the capacity was reduced to 3768.50 MiB or 3775.06 MiB again.

Did anybody experience the same or similar problems?

I did ask the HTC technical support via email, but no answer yet.

Ciao, Rick ...
