Got mine on Friday morning and have spent a whole day testing it. Touch flo is much better than on the touch pro and the screen is a marvel. Definately no fm radio, but I dont find this a problem. I have not had a chance to try out the GPS properly yet but located my position on google maps within a minute and seemed quite accurate. The sound quality from the loud speakers seems very good and the call quality is excellent. It also adjusts the screen brightness when in bright sunlight. Overall I am very impressed!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] galaxys:
^ Congrats on your new TP2! Very positive report and especially to hear the speaker quality is very good!

Doe's it feel really fast and how's the memory stat's?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] fatso485:
how good is the video playback?

is it better than the xperia. i get 21fps on core media player on a 640x272 movie. hope this can do 30fps
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] felipeg007:
well ATT sticks it to us again.

I cant seem to drop the security level on my phone.

I get a tier-two security prompt.

I also tried changing the registry security policy using CeReg editor and no luck.

Has anyone out there had any luck dropping the security level down.

Also GPS seems to be disabled.

I just found another POst with same question.

Sorry for the duplicate Post.

Hope someone can offer me some advice. Video playback is very high on my priorities. I currently have an Omnia which is pretty flawless playing back DIVX or XVID encoded files. I am not interested in playing back High Def content, only xvid/divx avi files that I download such as TV and DVD Rips.

How good is the Touch Pro 2 with Coreplayer, I am pretty worried from all that I read about HTC/Qualcomm drivers not working properly and this is a deal breaker for me. I don't know if the Touch Pro 2 is the same, I know it has the same processor.

I have been out of contract for a couple of months and was waiting to get an Iphone but I will have to encode all my xvid files in order for them to play, at least until Coreplayer for Iphone is released. I was happy with my Omnia but I seem to have endless problems with getting programs working as they should and of course there is no official support on this site.

If video playback is ok for these type of files I may go for either the Diamond 2/Touch Pro 2 or Touch HD as they all seem to be a similiar spec.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ajbopp:
These play flawlessly on my antiquated Vogue as long as they are encoded properly, so I think there's no reason to suspect they will play any worse on the TP2. Perhaps the additional resolution, I suppose. But my experience has been that video on HTC is good stuff.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] cocoaju:
I read a review that it plays Xvid without any drop frames but can't play Dvix properly.

If you don't mind re-encoding your downloaded videos using the Video GUI, then you won't have any problems. I use it for my HD and it plays very very well at 624x352 resolution.

All you need to do is let it run over night and download it to your phone in the morning. Easy huh? :D
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kcraptor82:
Okay, yet another problem with this kaiser. This phone is acting worse then a problem child on crack since I reloaded 6 times because of me trying to get the weather in my area. Anyhow, since I gave up trying to fix the weather thing, I now have a message problem. I have deleted all messages from inbox and outbox, etc. But still the phone keeps saying I have one new unread message. I have powered the device off and also used the stylus to reset it from the bottom button, and still have no effect. What is wrong with this thing this time? Has anyone had this problem? I am running the stock HTC firmware with WM 6.1 and Update 23 of M2D Touchflo. Also have Update 20 addons installed to make things work, etc. TomTom, and other msc programs. Don't think they would effect this, since I had this setup before my phone starting to screw up.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kcraptor82:
Okay, I found the solution. If anyone else needs this then here is the website:

http://www.freewareppc.com/communication/fixunreadcount.shtml

Description:

This utility fixes the unread count for every mail folder in every account on the device.

Some users have had problems with Inbox or the Today screen displaying "-1" unread messages, or displaying 1 or more unread messages when, in fact, there are none. This utility will detect and repair these discrepencies.

It's not flashy, but it does the job :)

Just power off device and restart it and it should be gone.

Booo, DivX on HD

One of the main reasons I bought my Touch HD was for playing Divx. I have a couple of old Dell Axims which have been great but the attraction with the Touch HD was it was a phone aswell, GPS, bluetooth for the car and I could watch films on the train to work in high res still.

Actually, it's a bit rubbish in my opinion. The screen is amazing but you cannot use TCPMP that well as it judders too much. So you have to resort to using the pretty limited Coreplayer (no AC3 support which is annoying when you only realise after you have boarded your train to work!). No easy way of fast forwarding as you cannot program all the soft touch buttons. No easy way of raising / lowering the volume either.

Oh yes and it still skips and judders in Coreplayer unless you are watching a boring movie about paint drying as it has no movement on the screen.

I bet you will get a ton of positive responses but this is what I think. If you are still tempted after my rant about the HD then I would suggest trying it.

of course if you are interested in buying it then it is an amazing DivX player and works flawlessly. ;)
[Touch HD General] nikjensie:
I will second Damians post, although Rubbish might be a little harsh...

Like you I was very excited to basically just drop a couple of TV shows on the Storage Card without any interaction and start playing them on my way to work but it didn't take long to realize that was merely a dream...

I consider myself being picky about quality and as of now the quality in such a setup is not watchable. At the moment I encode with Super and then transfer to Storage Card (got it setup fairly automatic with MobSync). I am holding on with hopes of better compatibility from CorePlayer (support for the chip), a better player or any other major breakthrough in the issue since I do think that for me there is no phone on the market that can beat the incredible screen... that I believe was made for watching media such as described.... sigh...

On a small note.... I had the Diamond2 to compare (benchmarked and simple visual comparison) side by side and though benchmarking exceeds the Touch HD (HD: 75-90% vs D2: 105-120%) as well as the visual appearence.... the screen really is a major difference that might be worth waiting for a better HD solution...

2 cents... signed and delivered...

[Touch HD General] meddleuk:
Thanks for the advice. I was hoping for something more positive re playback but you more or less just confirmed what I thought. I think I'm going to go for the new Iphone this summer if I need to convert files anyway.
[Touch HD General] smeddy:
I havn't found it too bad to be honest (and I'm another perfectionist). I was annoyed for weeks and spent ages scanning this forum and different options, but as it stands, on the newest stock rom (which only uses up 29% of ROM), using SDcard tune-up, and the best options in Coreplayer (turning sound to mono-join etc), I get no skips in films or TV shows. I'm perfectly happy with it, although I do make sure to check the videos play once I've dropped them on (and 8 out 10 of thousands of Divx/Xvid/Avis from loads of sources work on the box).

So 8/10 for me. I'll try to provide more info if you need.
[Touch HD General] leper04:
There is a tool, called "HTC Touch HD Video Converter", just search the forum. Works very fast, esp. on two core machines. In my opinion, this is the best converter, every movie i've converted with this tool runs just gorgeous on my touch HD using the built-in player Album. No delays, no sound issues at all - just like it should be, smooth and the picture is brilliant.

I used different converters and I don't know what's so special about this one but it just works, other didn't (in my case). I was kinda disappointed with the touch HD, videos didn't run smoothly, I even wanted to buy the ipod touch, before I used this tool.

I think this information is'nt correct. You have tried out the free vxflash from Cydia store? You should be able to play divx, xvid, and flv files directly with iPhone with no conversion.

See http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=3895
[Touch HD General] nikjensie:
Would you mind sharing your config.xml located in Application Data/CorePlayer?

(...or specify your settings manually, but I think above would be easier)

I feel like I've tried all possible settings with no success. It would be greatly appreciated!

[Touch HD General] Ati75:
I was also very excited when i finally got my Touch HD, espacially for watching TV series like you guys. 3 hours on the train is not bearable without some kind of entertainment :). Well at first i also was very frustrated cause i am one of those people that instantly pick up jerky movement in a movie or when the sound lags just a few frames behind. Ever tried watching 4:3 content on a 16:9 tv, but stretched? Everytime i see something like that, i feel the urge to cry :o But there are many people that do not pick up such things.

Got a bit offtopic here, sorry. What i wanted to say is, i got accustomed to the slight jerky movement while watching something. The luxury of being able to pull out your phone, attach your headset and simply watch something while on the train, the bus or somewhere else, simply outweighs the not so fluent playback. As already mentioned the display is absolutely gorgeous. This is of course my oppinion. Using coreplayer on Topix 2.1.
[Touch HD General] smeddy:
Hey I've uploaded it (as a text file). For this, anything xvid, avi, divx, mpg etc. just seems to work (well, 9 out of 10 files, ranging from 174mb TV shows to 1gb movies).

Will be interested to know your thoughts or offer any further feedback,

Another thumbs up for Projections Video Encoding GUI - films I've converted are very smooth and audio and video are all in sync. A great app.

Hi, I tried TCPMP and then Coreplayer to play standard resolution Divx files. With coreplayer I get very good results after increasing the buffer it uses for video and audio.

I'm using regular Divx or xvid movies, with MP3 audio. I'm using episodes from House M.D. for example, in high definition, and they look perfectly good. A movie like Terminator, with high movement, a lot of explosions, etc, is more difficult to handle. But overall I'm satisfied with what you get with the correct software and settings.

Unfortunately I have come to realize after trying several devices and hundreds of programs that Windows Mobile programming is still on it's infancy and 95% of the programmers cannot reach an aceptable level of ussability. I'm tired of big slow programs, that cannot display the simplest of 2D screen while in others you can pan or zoom a photo fast, or display video full screen at 20 - 25 fps. That shows you that the hardware is capable of fast processing and screen redraw, just most programs are too big and too slow.

Hello all, I was wondering if anyone can help me. I recently installed JF 1.51US and was working on lucidrem's scripts. I installed the new SPL and everything went ok but now my EXT2 will not allow me to move apps and such. It is saying thismkdir failed for /system/sd/lost+found, read-only file system EXT2 Not Mounted Can anyone tell me how to remount EXT2? I spent the last hour searching and couldnt find an answer to my question.
[G1 General] chrisrj28:
Does anyone know by chance?
[G1 General] LucidREM:
on the JF1.51 it will mount the EXT2 automatically if it exists
[G1 General] chrisrj28:
Oh really. So then something must be wrong with my EXT@ then. I guess I will reformat and see. It's funny b/c it worked at first when I first rooted and then I did the spl update and went into bootloader, I had to wipe and re root and that's when it started saying the it wasn't mounted. Oh well, thanks for the info. Hopefully the format will work
[G1 General] Janis:
Please let us know what happens

It would be useful info. thanks.
[G1 General] Kinslayer81:
Can you post the output of

ls -l /dev/block/mmc*

from either an adb shell or terminal?

From what you've said it sounds like your ext2 partition is corrupt and that the format will fix this. Or if you're running linux, run e2fsck (or fsck.ext2) on the appropriate partition to repair it.
[G1 General] runderekrun:
I am having the same problem as chrisrj28, and my output is:

I think the filesystem just isn't set up (I had to manually format my fat partition after running sdsplit).

Sorry if this isn't the same problem chrisrj28.
[G1 General] runderekrun:
Yeah I just manually formatted the ext partition in Paragon Partition Manager.

Works fine now. I guess I didn't run the make filesystem switch in sdsplit.
[G1 General] chrisrj28:
Yeah thanks for everyone that tried to help. I was able to get to a cpu and just formatted my EXT2 and it worked like a charm. Something I did when rooting must have made it read only. For anyone else with that issue just reformat your partition

Long time downloader, first time poster, I hope nobody minds me diving in with a sizable request.

My girlfriends dad, Keith, has made it to the final five contestants on Virgin Atlantic's Sir Richard Branson Lookalike Competition, and I'd like for you all to have the chance to place your vote.

We've started falling behind on the votes and after all the effort we've put in (radio coverage, papers, etc) we'd be gutted if he didn't win, as the prize is a trip to New York, attending the Virgin 25 Year Anniversary dinner, and Keith has promised to give up smoking, too.

While this competition is taking place on Facebook, I implore those without accounts to sign up and participate. Details on how to vote can be found on this handy page:

http://www.shiftrunstop.com/skels/bransonalike/

While you can obviously vote for anyone you like, we hope you'll see the resemblance as much as we do, and vote for Keith.

If you do place your vote for Keith, please say so below and I'll be sure to get Keith to thank you personally on Facebook. If you can spread the word a little, that would also be fantastic. :D

Also, if anyone has an look-a-likes in their family, feel free to post them so we can have our own little vote for the best one.
[G1 Android Development] Mysticales:
Hey all, wanted to report for others who may be looking in the future for this info. I was on JF RC33, I had used Lucids script to help make my apps and cache run off the SD. (Fat32/EXT2)

I went to the market, downloaded JF Rom upgrader. I upgraded to the cupcake radio 1st. (So installed the radio 1st)

After that I went here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=480582

Downloaded the US 1.51 JF update.zip (Be sure you delete the radio update.zip 1st after you installed the radio) and put that in the root of my SD card. Then I did the Camera, Home button to turn the G1 into the recovery mode and I applied the update.

After that I booted up, all my apps were STILL linked and working on my G1. The ONLY thing that was glitching was any app trying to use root and the SU Request screen always was blank.

Thanks to pychobj2001 who suggested to turn on "USB Debugging" which did the trick surprisingly. The SU Request screen came up normally as it should and now ALL my apps work correctly. (Providing they have cupcake support)

So in a nutshell, I did not have to wipe anything, kept all my apps, everything is still linked to the SD working perfectly. =D Just wanted to post this info since I know when I was looking over threads after threads, most were talking about wiping 1st and reinstalling 1 by one again.. Im glad I dont have to.

My next task, using Ubuntu to move my 2GB to my 4GB SD card. Should go smooth I hope. =)

Hope this helps someone else too. =)
[G1 Android Development] AGx-07_162:
Thats not surprising since installing the OTA Cupcake update wasn't intended to wipe your data. Upgrading from JF ROM to JF ROM (especially the 1.51 version) shouldn't require a wipe at all.
[G1 Android Development] tbgreen:
i think his point is upgrading from JF RC33 to JF 1.51 without wipe while the app2sd is all function well!

this sound great as me too looking this info for so long it kept me from upgrading from my current 1.51 to any other roms...
[G1 Android Development] Mysticales:
Yea, thats about right, for those who were scared like I was to upgrade, thats why this info is here. I did learn alot tho. Basically long as your apps and apps-private is on the SD, If you lose the cache but you have your apps linked. Your apps will be installed, you just need to resetup their configs and so. Clean start but without having to hunt your apps down.

Also I dont know about going from rom to other roms, this was for JF to JF. But long as your apps are on the SD, you should be ok, but you may need to lose your cache and just run the apps again to set things up the way you had them.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] cocoaju:
Yes, TP2 will come with an upgrade to 6.5. But when you first get it, it will still be 6.1.

Acer which is launching their new phone F900, comes with WM6.1 but it comes with IE6 and plays flash movies too. Don't know if TP2 will come with IE6 with it's 6.1 OS.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Link278:
But it does come with Opera Mobile I think, which is better
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] DaveTheTytnIIGuy:
It should come with a 6.1 ROM initially, with the (old) new version of Pocket IE, which is actually quite decent, although I'm sure that most people will still prefer Opera Mobile (also included for sure). Then, a 6.5 upgrade is guaranteed. Then, waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay into the future, an upgrade to WM7 is expected (based on leaked AT&T documents).

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Warren17:
Waaaaaaaay into the future being September 09. heres the article on CNET (LINK) referring to (I assume) the leaked AT&T Document.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] cocoaju:
That it didn't say on the review. So I guess not. I never used IE6, so I won't know which is better. Also, I think you can download Opera 9.5 Beta versions from Opera site.

That article is just referring to the date that is on the FORTRESS specs (the picture of the AT&T TP2 - Look at the bottom in red font).

Back in Feb, it was leaked by Motorola's CEO that WM7 was pushed back (likely to April 2010) due to the release of the Android.

Heres the quote from the Article....

So the Warhawk is TD2 and the Fortrss TP2

I have highlighted the 2 bits of note...

So I read that as the TP2 has missed its launch date of the 25th with AT&T but should have a refresh reward to WM7 in Sept 09.

I'm not going against what you said Hamburg, i'm just showing what I read.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] incredulous:
You all do know that Windows Mobile 6.5 will be out by this time next month right?

As far as I know, my mum is a director at T-Mobile Europe in case you were wondering, the T-Mobile Wing II (Rhodium 100) will be shipping next month with 6.5 preinstalled.

Also next month is the Dopod Tachi (or as HTC call it, the HTC Twin) also coming with 6.5 loaded.

With the addition that it's my birthday next month, July is a good month for me this year :)

TP2 on AT&T in US?

Anyone here using a TP2 in the US? On AT&T? In Chicago (or anywhere)?

I'm about to toss my iPhone and go back to WinMo. I started out with a Blue Angel and Alpine WAY back, then had a Kaiser and still have an Athena I play around with (although I nuked the GPS radio I think).

I'm just nervous about the "No 3G" thing. Is it EDGE only then? That would blow. I thought AT&T had some HSDPA here that provided higher speeds but honestly I'm not that up on the technologies and which is which.

I may have to wait to see how a 6.5 upgrade would go on it and how well the widescreen takes advantage of 6.5 Any ideas on comparison between the Tp2 and the Nokia N97?

Not directly. There is a browser called Fennec developed by the Firefox team which aims for mobile devices. There is an alpha version available, but it isn't fast or stable enough for everyday use IMO. Just search for it if you want to try it out.
