[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] jutley:
Hi i hope this will put those minds at rest for the ones that are not sure htc magic or htc touch pro2 read on.

Well i ordered my htc magic recieved it next day opened the box a very nice well made phone apart from being abit plastiky all over.

Using the phone was great you cant go wrong with the android software it really is a dream to use espeacially all the free apps at your disposal.

Well after 2 days this phone started to wear off me it was all down to the battrey irm afraid i was charging it up after each day not a good start.

I decided to finally send it back on a 14 day return i then ordered the HTC Touch pro2.

Now when i opened the box i was very impressed with the build quality compared to that of the htc magic it just blows it away by a mile.

Pure time quality and efort went into making this handset not just rushed of the trackline.

The operating system is wm 6.1 though but a free upgrade from htc to 6.5 is imminent any day now.

The interface feels alot smoother than previus handsets i had ie htc diamond the touch flow system is faster but the most important ascpect about this handset is great for battrey life.

My first full charge lasting 3 full days thats with moderate useage as i did the same with the htc magic but that depleted in just 1 day.

Tomtom 7 works great on this htc touch pro2 open the screen out and rest it on the dashboard better than the tomtom devices anyday.

So now you can see why i chose the htc pro2 over the htc magic android is great dont get me wrong but the battrey dying so quickly does not have a long lasting apeal to the handset.

I bet you will soon get tiredsome of recharging the handset each day where as the htc touch pro 2 can go on for days without charging.

Also Touch Pro2 will have android soon it is possible just a matter of time.

The htc touch pro2 was my choice due to battrey lasting 3 days and build quality and the fact that android is a possibility soon on this handset so i have the best of both worlds.

It beats the google phone htc magic hands down at its own game.

I hope this puts all those minds at rest any questions please do not hesitate in contacting me or pm me but for now i give the HTC Touch Pro2 smartphone of the year 2009 anyday.

PS if i did not help in changing your mind irm sure this guy will have fun.

nice, i'm glad you posted this, and it's nice to hear you actually played with both phones so you can compare.

One thing I would like to hear your thoughts on is the size of the device.

The size difference between the phones are quite different and that's what's hindering me between either phones
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] jutley:
size comparison between both phones well the htc magic is thin but tall and the touch pro2 is slightly thicker but you hardly notice the thickness between the both the magic feels very plastiky the pro feels like well a phone a very well made phone so size comparison between the both there is not much difference at all having used both devices but expect the touch pro to be slightly heavier and thicker.

OMG, my head hurts. Please use paragraphs and spaces... :p :)

^I'm also dizzy from reading this :confused: but, thanks for the comparison ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] orelsi:
WinMo is far superiour. LOL @ any other mobile OSs.

I don't like the design of the Magic. There is something repuslive in it. No keyboard = FAIL !!!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] kltye:
Thanks for the review as well, but please use paragraphs and periods in your subsequent posts...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] maddog497:
This is exactly what I was asking myself. I have been leaning towards touch pro 2 but did not know if laying out the extra $$$ was going to be worth it. I believe you have answered that question, thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Supertrooper:
I have had or still do have: N95, Wing, 8525, Iphone, G1, Shadow, Blackberry 8320, Javelin, Storm, Touch Pro1, Tilt and probably others that just isn't coming to mind right now.

Now I have the Rhoduim and it is the best device I have owned to date, by far. Accept the battery cover could be better.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] orb3000:
TP2!!!

Just 2 reasons: hardware keyboard and WM :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] poetryrocksalot:
Don't even compare it to the magic. Compare it to something with a higher caliber such as the HTC Hero or atleast a next gen android with a keyboard.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] solsearch:
The comparison was hands on, meaning that the Hero would be hard to do as it isn't out yet. It's also good for those that are making the choice right now and not waiting till the Hero or Lancaster come out (the G1 is available but he neither had it nor is it the latest gen available as you said).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Epicardium:
Thanks. I appreciate this post, as I am also looking at these two phones.
[HTC Startrek] vmf9911833:
Hi everybody...

I have a question..

How can i connect my Startrek with my Motorola w385 Jefferson. This is to use my unlimited data plan that i have with motorola (Iusacell, Mexico).

This procedure can i do with a Pocket PC (Like my old XDA Flame) But with a Smartphone is to much difficult. I can´t find how.

Any comments or suggest?

Maybe changing the ROM. But i have other issue.. My USB connection are dead. The port are dead and i can not change the ROM.. Maybe flashing with microSD ?...

Thanks to everyone...

[HTC Startrek] giany_rap:
flashing from microsd works only with official roms..so i don't recommend u this choice:P

go with the phone to a friend wich have the usb ports ok and try flashing erofich's windows mobile 6.1 professional wich turns your smartphone into a pocket pc:)
[HTC Startrek] vmf9911833:
Startrek BT DUN...

Thanks Man.. But i did not explain very well..

The thing that are dead is not my USB's Ports (In my laptop or PC), in fact it is my USB 12-Pin Connector (In my cellphone), at this moment i have a external battery charger for keep using this amazing device and i can not send to repair this because is too much money (It's more cheaper buy another phone)...

So, it is the reason that i asked after if with the MicroSD maybe change the ROM. Any suggest again?. I appreciate that.

Thanks.

ATTE.

[HTC Startrek] Tiger Shark:
What ROM are you using now? There are some official ROMs that have Bluetooth DUN that could be flashed from µSD. The original Cingular 3125, for example. I can't say whether it would connect properly to your device, though.

You have checked that your phone doesn't already have it, correct? In the 3125, it was located in the Accessories folder and called "Wireless Modem".
[HTC Startrek] vmf9911833:
Startrek BT DUN.. and Flashing Micro SD card.

Thanks..

I have an Imate Smartflip with "Windows Mobile 6.1 Build 19593.1.1.7 (Thanks to Partizan)"

Any suggest for my device imate (Startrek)?

Nop... I don´t have it... This program can connect my Motorola w385 like modem to use in my Startrek? or this is for use my Startrek like modem with a PC?

Thanks a lot.

I really want to flash a WM6.1 Professional but my USB 12-pin port is dead. Can i do this using SD Card (I did already a SuperCID Unlock years ago.)

Salute.

hi to all, i would like to know if there is a good wm6 rom for my s200, with italian language.

Thank you very much for your help and sorry for my bad english!
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] logeya:
:)i think ,the english language ROM is good for every prophet.

I'am chinese ,but i use EN ROM.

i've found this:

i've searched a lot but i don't understand how to flash this rom! there isn't any exe file. I've tryed VISTARUU but i don't understand how does it works:S could you help me?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] logeya:
oh,there's a nb file,you could found a nb change to nbf tools in google,

i have a chinese version,maybe it's not good work for you
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] ibracadabra86:
it is a nbf file! but when i try to use it with vistaRU i receive error 269! it seems that the rom isn't compatible with the VistaRUU!
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] varanusvincent:
I can flash it with VISTA.

Update your Driver first.

than use vista ruu
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] ibracadabra86:
i've update the driver, but when i drop the nbf on the flasher it doesn't tell me anything about Device ID and other, but i can however push next button, and then i gave me error 269!

i've tryed also in xp: put the palm in bootloader mode (3 colors), launched the Vistaruu but still the same error!
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] hekimbaba:
İf you get this error. I think you didnt make hardspl right. I think Lazytool will solve your problem.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] ibracadabra86:
i've read that if i use vista, i don't need to do hardspl...
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] varanusvincent:
wo said that? where you read it?

We need to HARDSPL our device!!!
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] ibracadabra86:

it doesn't seems that i've to put s200 in bootloader mod (3 colors) right?

because in this guide the method is different

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] ibracadabra86:
ok, i have used the first guide from windows xp, and then i've used vistaRUU still in windows xp. So i've flashed the rom. but now the palm it's extremely slow. so it's hard to explain it in english, however i've seen that touchscreen doesnt work: if i push on the left, it push on the right (it's an example), beacause when i've flashed the rom it doesn't ask to set the touch screen! so what can i do? i've try to do an hard reset but it's still the same thing: it doens't ask me to set the touchescreen!
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] paolone1:
Don't worry !!! :D

After flashing the ROM have you make a Hard Reset ?

And have you read the tread about the ROM you have choose ?

Maybe someone have some suggestion for you ...

Non spaventarti !!! :D

Dopo aver installato la ROM hai fatto un Hard Reset ?

Devi riavviare il telefono,quando lo schermo è ancora scuro devi premere

CONTEMPORANEAMENTE i 3 tasti accensione,camera e comm manager

oppure vai in settings,system,clear storage,e nella casella scrivi 1234 e premi yes.Aspetta poi il riavvio del telefono (perderai eventuali dati) e il telefono sarà

pronto da usare.

Poi puoi leggere il tread dove hai scaricato la ROM e troverai sicuramente vari suggerimenti,e se hai altri dubbi puoi scrivere lì ;)

Buon divertimento/Enjoy !!! :D

this is the trhead about the rom i've flashed. i've seen that in the archive there is the rom "nk.nbf" but there is also a folder "CONTENT_OF_SDCARD": what is this?

ah! a can't find a lot of program like PPCContactsManager, pbar etc...i don't think it's normal!
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] hekimbaba:
Thats why he get 3 color screen. Just make hardspl right than Lazytool flash will help you.

CONTENT_OF_SDCARD, this means programs for rom. İt contains programs Cab files. You setup it from your sd card.

my HD's ROM is non-official, youtube app can't play on 3G connect, but i can see the preview picture, and used coreplayer have the same result. (information: try to connect has error, please try again.)

it's no problem on wifi, and used official ROM is fine for any connect, what's problem for my HD, others user seems no this problem.

i tried install another youtube app, still can't work.

any body can give me good solution ??
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] soner607:
I have the same problem with my touch HD T8285. I found another Youtube mobile app that I've been using on the data connection. It's not as good as the HTC one, but at least you can view Youtube videos whenever there is no WiFi spot. No one responded to my post about this, so I would like to narrow this down. May I ask what radio you're using and is your phone a T8282 or a T8285 model? Link for the cab file is below.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] d.cortez:
if you're on at&t, then you need a registry editor to remove the proxy setting (wireless.cingular.com) and the native YouTube application should work just fine. more detail can be found here

This worked perfectly! Thanks brother!!!

I was using SPB Mobile Shell 3 on my last phone, and loved the ability to grab contact photos for my friends from Facebook. Is there any way of doing this with the TP2? If not, is there any way of using that part of SPB Mobile Shell functionality without losing TouchFlo?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] terryd1980:
TF3D gives you the ability of creating a favourite contacts list and allows you to connect to facebook for photos, it also gives mini updates and birthday information which is pretty handy.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] michaelra:
I tried this one unsuccessfully. It listed my Facebook friends, etc. but when I tried to grab the photo, it just had the default picture with a Facebook icon on it
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Sjuust:
Works great here! Dutch version. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] nicelad_uk:
Yes, it does only use the Default photo. Try a program called BookSync, think this gives you more options but the developer is really good, so will adapt the program to suit needs most of the time.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Jamiewalshe:
i find the facebook integration on tflo3d excellent, would be nice to be able to set a different update option (its every 2 hours and i cant see a way of changing that) but the way it pulls photo and a little bit of info is great and works really well.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] combat goofwing:
which facebook app are people using?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] terryd1980:
I'm using standard TF3D interface, working well
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] itm:
I'm using v1.0.0.7 of the "official" facebook app (i.e. the downloadable app from facebook.com). It's supposed to integrate with the WM phonebook but I can't find any menu options for that (e.g. to download photos, personal details, etc). Has anyone else managed to work out WM contact integration with this app??
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Mashe:
the built in application didn't work for pictures, but I got tip for a SkyBook as per here http://www.magnifoca.com/download_skybook.html and it worked .. so now I got finally all the pictures updated :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] WizardN00b:
My problem with BookSync is that it requires .net 3.5.

Why??? It can't possibly need that. :rolleyes:
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] slowatsch:
Well it's strange, on most of my contacts the integrated app works fine. But for some contacs which 100% have a pictre, it just doesn't fetch it. The contact is linked, but the photo just not shown. Anyone has the same problem? or even better a solution? :P
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] nicelad_uk:
Usually happens when you're too quick at linking the contact then leaving that contact and going to the next screen. Go back into the contact andclick on updates. Then click the menu on the right and click on the "Get Photo" again and stay in that page, it should bring it down.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Alcibiade:
Anyway to avoid having TF3D erase my original picture from teh profile with the facebook one ?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] nicelad_uk:
Yeah, you just untick click "Get Photo" when linking the contact in TF3D

Thanks. I was not even daring to try :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] doublecheese:
Ok Guys , here is an important question

I have about 177 friends that are on my TP2 phone book and also on my facebook.

It's a pain in the back to link each persons profiles to the phone book of the TP2.

Imagine you hard reset TP2 , you must do all this linking one by one again and again.....

Is there a way to Copy to facebook links to each dedicated peson. I would like to copy this file and overright the new file after a hard reset or phone change.

For example I also have a Touch HD with Rhodium Rom on it, when I moved all my contacts fom HD to touch Pro 2 , the facebook links did not transfer so I had to re-link this 177 persons one by one.

There are some facebook files, I copied some of them, overwrote the existing files but it didn't work.

I'm 100 % sure when there is a new ROM for the TP2 all of you will be looking for the same answer, let's find a solution for this now before it's too late :))))
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Aiden-Athena:
+1 to this suggestion.

However, if you sync it with your PC, shouldn't you be able to re-sync everything, including FB links? No?

Alternatively, there is a program I found called PIMBackup (google it! XD) that might do the trick of saving your contacts and their FB links in the event of a hard reset, but I honestly don't know, since I haven't hard reset my device as of yet.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] doublecheese:
I've been there , I ve done that

Outlook Synch or PIM BACKUP or Sprite Backup - NOTHING HELPS !!!!

All Facebook links to your contacts are disappeared............:( when you hard reset your phone, image upgrading to other HTC Touch phone, same story, everything is gone.... You must re link all your facebook contacts to your TP2 contacts.

It's same with Diamond 2 and guys who use HD with Rhodium/Diamond Roms.

We need a solution for this !!!!!!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] doublecheese:
Any body got an idea for this problem ???

We'll loose all facebook links to our contacts after a hard reset !!! How to backup and restore them ?
