Are you people under four feet? The Fuze feels nice in my hands. It's solid, it's built well, it's uniform in colour and design (especially with a black theme) and it's not flimsy in the slightest. I can feel it in my pocket too.

Now, I would like a larger screen, but everything else on the TP2 is not pretty looking. Also AT&T doesn't have 1 year plans.
[General Topics] maw:
In Holland we can choose between a 1 or 2 year contract, the difference is, with a 2 year you get it for free, with a 1 year you have pay a minimal amount... If in 2010 they come with a newer version with higher specs, then you have the choice to upgrade. I too feel that although the current TP is solid, compact etc. its a lot smaller than the kaiser/tilt and that did feel better in the hand. They can't please everyone but I do fine the design a lot better, but thats personal....
[General Topics] DanQ:
I was just looking at the TP2 on the HTC website, thinking that maybe or at least the processor speed was upgraded, but nothing. Not even the memory capacity. The only upgrade that I see is just the look of it, the "outside". So I guess I will agree on not getting one until they actually come with a better (not only looking), faster, bigger capacity and newer technology phone. Then I'll think about spending few hundred dollars on a new one.

@Sleuth

Pardon the ignorance but, what do you mean by "capacitive" touchscreens?

I understand is a new tech, but what does it do?

First of all a lot of people in the USA aren't getting nearly the phones the rest of the world is getting. The really nice phones that would actually let us have 3G are slim pickings, especially on the GSM side of the battle.

I'm using a Cingular 8525 on T-Mobile and if TMO USA offered the TP2 I'd snatch it up right away and give my wife my 8525 so I could put her stupid sidekick in the blender and watch it scream for mercy at it split into millions of pieces of dust.

I wish the phones has the Tegra processors because the sample I saw of their capacities really made things look rosy for the phone markets.

Still the TP2 is a major upgrade for many people as exhibited by the tons of older phone forums here that have a lot of users.

Basically, stop being a snob, snob.
[General Topics] skulk3r:
As the proud owner of a new Blackstone, I am slightly peeved that Diamond 2 and the TP2 have the same specs. As someone pointed out...the Diamond 2 is pretty much a smaller version of the Blackstone (3.2" vs 3.8"), otherwise CPU, RAM, ROM are the same! The only positive thing is that they're both WVGA screens and that will lead to more apps being developed for WVGA. Oh, also it means that the Blackstone should be able to run WinMo 6.5 smoothly (and hopefully WinMo7!).

The TP2 does look ugly...I really liked the black look of the HTC devices, the metal casing makes it look chunky and old-school (like old motorolas =P). The tilt bit does look cool though.

As for capacitive screens, I read somewhere that the reason why HTC still do passive screens is because of the need of a stylus. So the new WinMoe devices will probably not be capacitive unless they develop and use a new capacitive-friendly stylus...which probably won't happen until WinMo 7.

Anyway...grrr! Making my Blackstone more commoner-like :p
[General Topics] adamantypants:
There are pros and cons to the TP2.

+speakerphone

+better TF3D

+bigger screen w/ tilt

+WM6.5 capable/free upgrade

-UGLY

-No flash... wtf

-too soon and too pricey

I'm glad I wasn't the only one thinking about the chipsets. They're identical and all HTC did was slap a new coat of paint on the UI, which I immediately thought the devs here would port.

As of yesterday I was debating on whether or not I wanted to get one but the OP has a great point. And I like the look of my device -unassuming but attractive. Not to mention the torch functionality. That seriously gets some of the most use of all my programs.
[General Topics] cproaudio:
If you look back at HTC models histories, you'll notice that each models only gets a slight upgrade from the previous model. Lets start with Wizard (AT&T 8125) it has 1.3MP camera, 2.8QVGA, 128M ROM/64M RAM, MiniSD, 2G data, IrDA, TI processr @ 195mhz. Herme (AT&T 8525) only upgraded the processor to Samsung @400mhz, 2MP camera, HSDPA@1.8mbps, Video calls, MicroSD, PTT. Kaiser (AT&T 8925, Tilt) added GPS, tilting screen, upgraded processor to MSM7200 dual core @ 400mhz, 3.2MP camera, HSUPA @3.6mbps, 128MB RAM/256MB ROM, MicroSDHC, omitted IrDA. Touch PRO added VGA, radio, TV out, upgraded processor to 528mhz, 288MB RAM/512MB ROM, HSUPA @ 7.2mbps, omitted tilt screen, scroll wheel. Touch PRO2 added 2 speakers and 2 mics with dedicated mute button, slide zoom, brought back tilting screen, upgraded to 3.6" WVGA. If you're upgrading to the next generation, it seems hardly worth it. If you skip a generation or 2 then it's definitely worth the money. If you want a brand with much added features between generations of phone try Samsung, a world of difference between Omina and Omina HD. They're totally different phones with nothing in between them.

I will definitely upgrade to TouchPRO2 when it comes out and retire my Tilt or use it as a backup. HTC needs to make a mediacentric smart phone to compete with Samsung and Nokia.
[General Topics] finisterre:
I'll probably go for a Touch Pro 2 since I'm still struggling along with a Hermes. I do agree that these models are a little underwhelming though. If Toshiba can do Snapdragon, why can't HTC?
[General Topics] l3v5y:
The Touch HD is HTCs current media centric device. Gorgeous screen, decent horsepower and a 3.5mm headphone jack.

I upgraded my Prophet to a Diamond, and the difference is amazing, but who here seriously upgrades there device once a year? (If you have an iPhone, it doesn't count. The first one was underspec'd and crap, the new one's just crap.)

In reply to one post about why the TP2 doesn't have a 5MP camera: It's a business phone. The call things, the keyboard etc. It's not a mass market consumer phone like the Diamond or Diamond2, so why have features that aren't going to be used by its main target audience, but will increase the price?
[General Topics] StuartMaher:
I upgrade once a year...

Thats why i'll go Diamond -> Diamond 2 (or maybe TP2). People may say it's not a massive improvement, but the screen is important for me, I love high resoloution/high DPI screens, which the Diamond has one fo the best, if not the best around. So for me the Diamond 2 already has the diamonds best feature made better. The extra memory is also a big boost, especially as they couldn't get the snapdragon in. And lastly, the biggest complaint about the Diamond is the lack of memory expansion. Thanks for fixing that one!

Then, by next year i'll get the TD3 ;-)

Hi all,

Im trying to listen to the audio playback using my BT headset,but the music never comes to the BT headset, it starts playing at the speakers although x1 shows A2DP profile.
[XPERIA X1 General] pzbell:
Bluetooth A2DP headset with X1

I am having a similar problem.

I have an I.Tech Clip Radio that is capable of A2DP. When I was adding the new device, leaving the pin blank, headset was added successfully with both headset and wireless stereo profiles. Then in the Bluetooth setting page, when I try to "Set as wiresless stereo", a message will show trying to add headset into device list, press yes it will request for passcode, and does not accept the correct default passcode "0000" while the "Next" is grey out if I leave the passcode blank. And of course the Windows Media Player is then playing thru the speaker not headset.

Anyone has any idea? Is it an incompatible issue or I was doing it wrong?

I realize this thread isn't directly about a developing apps from these forums, but isn't it worthwhile to introduce new ideas into our developer community?

I think it comes down to that it's not dev as there is no software as such, as in your not posting software etc "something contributory", when moved it wasn't a Q&A because it was answered, so kinda off topic..

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] defaria:
Recently somebody created a card counting application for the iPhone. I was wondering if anything similar exists for the Touch Diamond. In order to be more stealth I would like it to allow me to use the volume up/down for increase/decrease the count and perhaps use the d9 and vibration such that pushing the d9 button (is that what it's called?) would essentially ask the application "What's the current count?". It would then use the vibration to indicate that to the user. A special, perhaps short/long vibration would start indicating plus or minus, following by the count itself. This way the application could be used in your pocket.

Anything like this out there? Sounds like an interesting application...

[XPERIA X1 General] derrickonline:
I get my X1a tomorrow and I have the following questions that I was unable to find after massive reading of many posts.

1. Is TF3D running and stable on X1?

2. I understand landscape mode is available now? Stable?

3. Can you run TF3D as a standalone interface versus running it as a panel, and I assume this makes it run much smoother (since I'm reading that panels consume a lot of power).

4. Can someone point me to or post a pic of the TF3D dialer and incoming call screen (TOUCH-IT-BLACKSTONE-DIALER to be exact). It does replace the hiddeous little incoming WM call screen right?

5. What is the difference between the MANILA TouchFlo and Blackstone? That's where the confusion is coming in.

6. Are there ANY limitations running TF3D on Xperia, I don't want to loose any functionality of my Xperia, so is there any part/function that doesn't work with TF3D?

7. Where can I find the end all be all step by step instructions for installing the most stable and functional TF3D? Is it the TF3D Blackstone (Touch-IT)?

Than you in advance.
[XPERIA X1 General] theclueless:
yea, same here, im getting my x1 tmw, and i had gotten used to the touchflo 3d interface... however, one thing i absolutely HATE about touchflo is that it forces you to use htcaudio manager, it is absolute piece of junk when it comes to playlist and organizing the music, i just wish somehow and someone is skilled enough to tweak it and use something else to play music
[XPERIA X1 General] derrickonline:
Yeah I have an iPhone right now. I've always used WM devices before and I love my iPhone for many reasons, but I hate it for just as many reasons as well. I'm fed up with Apple even with a jailbroken iPhone I'm tired of the lack of BASIC stuff. I want an open phone again. So I'm going back to WM. I'm really going to just test out this SEX1 to see if I like it It's going to be hard leaving my iPhone after I got so used to it. I've always hated the SEX1 Panel interface, it's garbage in my opinion. Even worse there are like 12 panels. That really sucks. A poor attempt at putting a frontend on WM. HTC has always been on the right track when it comes to a WM frontend so seeing it ported to the SEX1 is great. I just hate unstable equipment so I'm not willing to risk stability for looks just yet. Hence the 50 million questions.
[XPERIA X1 General] guap:
1. yes

2. only a workaround for now, but I guess it will fixed VERY soon ;)

3. yes

4. sorry, use search an you'll find It. Look for yota dialer also, very nice. Anyway, yes again, they replace the ugly wm one

5. manila and tflo3d are the same thing. ManilaHD is for wvga (as xperia) resolution but it's the same interface

6. As said, landscape for now, but I guess it will fixed VERY soon

7. Yes. Go to rom subforum, start reading about flashing and then have a look to itje rom (my favourite ;)) or something else that includes tflo3d... All custom rom are pretty mature now

and... yes :D panels sucks for me also
[XPERIA X1 General] theclueless:
im using an iphone right now too... after 4 months with it, besides the touch sensitivity and the audio player, i hated every other aspects of it; weak 3g reception, insufficient memory causing the programs to exit, no multi-program running, etc

A proper version will be a manila with embedded landscape support. We should have it in 24h for blackstone according to dutthroy announcements in blackstone forum, and then hope even on our xperia as they are very similar devices ;)
[XPERIA X1 General] alias_neo:
Hmm

I also have been using an iPhone for almost 2 years now. Just switched to the Xperia 2 weeks ago. as a hater of Apple I thought this device would make my life easier. On the whole it's nicer, but simple things like the touch sensitivity of the screen make a huge difference and "pressing" is somewhat difficult on the Xperia after using the extremely responsive "touch" interface of the iphone. My iPhone was used mostly for music and it does that much nicer than my xperia. (Why does the music stop when i press the power button to turn screen off on xperia?) also the email is much more fnctional because wifi switching and email checking seems to work much nicer on the iPhone without killing the battery. I have had to disable wifi on my xperia and disable autochecking email just to make the battery last a day.

All that being said, having installed the TouchFlo3D cab, the phone is muuuuuuch less responsive and the "touch" sensitivity of the TF3D is much worse than even the standard interface. (Pressing "comms" in the settings tab sometimes doesnt work for me if it's already highlighted after aving just exited the comms manager.)

Yeh, I didn't think it was normal, that's why it annoys me so much. I end up leaving it with the screen on in my pocket until it times out, but then it ends up getting pressed accidently.

Hi guys

I ll make a new thread for my question, I first asked it in the CT's 6.4 rom thread but actually it s not related.

I have tried 4 different ROMs, all using Opera9.5 beta

CT's 6.4, Syrius, Sone and Nataly

I have exactly the same problem on all of them.

All my applications can access the internet, including IE but Opera fail to connect....

When I try to open a web site, it take some time, and it finaly write

ERROR!

The remote server refuses to perform the request. This address is not available.

bla bla bla bla

bla bla bla bla

bla bla bla bla

But if I connect to my local Wifi, then everything work, including Opera.

So I guess it is a problem of connection with my provider.

I am French, and my Provider is SFR

I have a wap access, when I do the auto configure after the first start, I just have to go in the settings and change "Access point name:" From "websfr" to "wapsfr" ( I can setup the proxy or not, it gives the same result )

I know I have a limited access to the internet, for exemple I dont have the pop3 access.

But if IE and old version of opera are working, I guess there's no raison opera 9.5 doesnt ....

Any idea ??

I tried with another Sim, same provider (SFR) but with a regular wep access and it still doesnt work ...

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Co2_13:
I tried the hard reset ... Didnt fix anything.

It's crazy, there must be a good raison ....

I flash my phone with any ROM using opera 9.5 and I have everything working perfectly except Opera that can t connect at all ...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] Co2_13:
I can't F$ck^ng beleive it ....

I am reading on the web SFR doesnt allow that browser we have to edit the user agent string ....

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development] oalla:
You have to configure a custom user agent :

1. open Opera

2. go to "opera:config"

3. click on "user prefs"

4. find an input called "Custom User-Agent" and type in "HTC_P3700 Opera/9.50 (Windows NT 5.1; U; fr)"

5. scroll down and click on save.

6. Restart opera.

This works for me

There's a decent guide on a french htc diamond forum :

Paramétrage des connexions et services SFR

voir plutot "
