New info...

So I used my bro's SIM. He has had free data on his account using wap.voicestream.com and the 216./8080 proxy since he started service 5 or 6 years ago.

I stuck his SIM in my G1 and it gets data with the proxy. Browser and IM is all I tested. My account gave data for a few hours originally, so it'll be interesting to see what his account does in time.

wth

I hate people whom request services that they can't afford. I must say there is enough pirating that is done to where if you can't afford a cell phone data plan you need not have it. :cool:

$5.99 to $24.99?

I've been with PowerTel-VoiceStream-TMobile 12 years. I've had T-Mobile Web (Unlimited T-Zones) for several years. Do I deserve to have my plan increase in price 400 percent because I had the hindsight to jump on board when the prices were low? Someone explain to me why the Shadow's data plan gets to remain at $9.99 along with several of their 3G devices. Data is data is it not?
[G1 General] jashsu:
My guess is the data plans are low for other data devices because T-Mo assumes the data traffic on those devices will be lower than on a G1 or other full fledged smartphone os? Just a guess..
[G1 General] uansari1:
G1 and MyTouch3G are regularly pulling data for widgets, email, etc... maybe this is the underlying reason for their own data plans?
[G1 General] jashsu:
Not to mention IIRC the Web2go and T-Zones services were intended for WAP devices ("dumbphones"). Since T-Mobile began introducing phones with true browser functionality and datacards, they have offered more "proper" unlimited internet dataplans. Just because it happened to work with the G1 with a bit of tweaking doesn't mean that the T-Zones plans were ever intended for always-connected high-traffic devices like the G1.

Hey guys, I leaving to Japan tomorrow for a month. I was wondering if there were any apps or accessories you guys would recommend for me to take.

I am going to rent a SIM from softbank over there but will not have intenet access on the phone except when I have wifi.

Oh yeah, I have a Fuze.
[General Topics] MDGeist:
yeah, there are some apps i'd recommend...

first, install a japanese font, and an input panel, too

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=445550

second, the softbank email client, cause without it.... well its pretty self-eplanatory isnt it? (this one's major because softbank is using their own kind of service instead of SMS/normal email, nevermind this if you're not going to communicate with japanese people)

http://rapidshare.com/files/63346698/SoftBankMail.CAB.html

then there is EBPocket for all you dictionary needs ^^

and last but not least, if you want GPS navigation in japan, use Garmin Mobile XT... its the only program with coverage of the whole country (@others : yeah yeah, i know, mapking, but mapking only has a map for tokyo city area, bummer...)

Looking for a good rubber case, even if just for the back and sides. The 2 piece full cover cases seem to make it a challenge when using the volume keys. Atleast that is what I have been seeing in photos, especially from ebay.

Also have any of you noticed how easily the silver / platinum colored camera bezel scratches on an OEM battery cover? This is my 2nd HD and both got scratched in the lower right corner if you are facing the main camera.

Bluetooth enabled, visible to other devices and no passkey required.I click add new device, have my keyboard in pairing mode and it detects it (BTK8-8BEF). Highlight and click next, ask for a passkey, only a blank entry (i.e. click next) works here, tried 0000, 1234.IT connects ok then I get a message saying BTK8-8BEF wants to connect, do you want to add it to your device list, i click yes.It then asks me for a passcode again, but the next box is greyed out and wont let me click it until I input a passkey in. I have tried the defaults, 0000, 1234 but no luck. I have search all over the web for a default key and this issue with no success. Any help would be appreciated!

[Touch HD General] WILD9:
Hi, Ive just got a Brando Car mount with amplified speaker, it all seems great but theres a slight problem, whilst they've added the headphone lead to plug into the jack on top of the HD they seem to have left the pins wired in the USB connector so whenever I plug the HD into the cradle i get the :

"The device does not support the USB headset. Please remove it" message that you get if you try and old hands free kit in the HD.

Does anyone know if theres any way of preventing/blocking the warning message from coming up at all without re-wireing the usb plug which is a bit beyond me.

Thanks

Hi all,

I am currently using a HTC Diamond 2, and just bought a Blackberry HS-655+ Bluetooth adapter. I am having some issues, and wondering if anyone knows the answer.

I have no problem pairing the adapter to the device the first time, but after I turn off and on the adapter, the phone can no longer pair with the headset. I have to manually delete the profile in the phone and search for the new device to connect it again.

Anyone has any thoughts?

Thanks a lot!

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] eagleland:
I hope have not overlooked an answer to this question, and I appologize if so. I spent some time searching and did not locate any threads.

My question is, I am running SPB Mobile Shell 3.0 and Gyrator2.

I have Gyrator working fine in all areas that I have desired except for 1.

I am trying to find out how to get my home screenI In Shell) to stop rotating. When I exit shell and use the today screen (touch flo) the same thing happens.

Also, how do you adjust the screen rotation sensitivity? If i even slightly tilt my phone-it will rotate to landscape. It does not happen every instance.. but often enough to cause much frustration.

I would so appreciate any insight into this, and would be glad to make a donation on the behalf of anyone who could help!!

Thank you....Eagleland

Hey!

You need to find a program "Advence Config" or something that...

There was this option - you can switch on or switch off :)

Or maybe it was in "TF3D conf"

Well my only thought is that if you can disable the rotation animation and disable the Toshiba home screen, then the device would run super fast.
[General Topics] earth2172:
meanvulcan,

I'm in the same situation as you. I live in China and I've been waiting for the "perfect" phone to replace this summer my rubbish iPhone 2G.

3GS ? no thanx, I'm done with Apple experience.

HTC ? nothing good coming before end of the year (and I'm sick of the same HTC 528Mhz qualcomm / 3.2Mpix camera hardware plaform)

finally only new Samsung i8000 meets my requirements:

>3.5" screen with 480x800 resolution. AMOLED is a big plus here

Fast CPU (800Mhz is a good step above)

256MB RAM

Great UI (TouchWiz 2 looks good)

High capacity battery (1500maH is the best we can get now)

3.5mm Jack

Good browser with Java support (Samsung Dolphin got rave reviews until now)

descent >5Mpix camera (Samsung features, quality and UI are much better than HTC for example)

Well supported OS (Android or WinMo were mandatory)

Ability to "cook"

when you look at everything, finally the choice is none because only one device meets all criteria and that device is the Omnia II.

So if everything goes well, next week i will get my i8000 from Singapore or Hong Kong :cool:
[General Topics] meanvulcan:
Let me know how your Omnia II experience goes. I am not sure we are quite in the same boat... I don't have the option of buying from HK or Singapore if I want 3G, but that's life. Hardware vendors should really catch up. Now most GSM phones are quad band, so it doesn't matter where they come from, but almost none have 3 or quad band UMTS radios. Bastardos :mad:

When you say "ability to cook"... what do you mean? I've had a very different experience -- There is practically nothing out there to cook for Samsung SGH-i907, as I understand even i780 and i900 were a challenge to most.
[General Topics] earth2172:

[General Topics] Tabbe:
people are still stuck at this forum as there are still using htc devices only. but there are alot other forums are cooking for other branded pdas too just that alot ppl dont find it useful unless they have the device.

omnia 2 is has best spec so far compare with htc qualcomm-for-10-years spec.

Android is a nice and promising OS but actually it's far to be complete, especially on multimedia field (codecs, camera, video playing/recording) and hardware support (for example, you need to wait for 2.0 donut version to get 800x480 hi res panels support)

But I'm sure, when Android will mature and erase these lacks, it will be the best mobile OS :)

Omnia i8000, the best option

Hi.

I live in Spain. We have already the new Toshiba TG1. I think TG1 is too much big, and there are only a few aplications optimized for 4.1" screens. Actually, Winmo 6.1 icons are too small for TG1 screen. On the other hand, the TG1 battery life is very brief. I expect the new Omnia i800 available in a few weeks, to replace my old Kaiser.
[General Topics] galaxys:
Welcome to the xda forum! Let us know how you like the i800 after you get it...
[General Topics] pamburger:
Got the i8000 yesterday. Very disappointed with the UI. I am writing this based on my experience with HTC HD, Diamond 2.

1) Screen - Big bring screen which should be a plus, but turned out to be a big minus. I find it too bright even when set to the lowest level. Also, because of it's brightness, the pixels are too obvious hence makes the originally very smooth fonts look pixelated.

2) Speed - I've sent the CPU speed to High, however, the widget pages transition is still very slow, i.e. Unlike Touch flo on HD, you have to slide and wait till the next screen shows up on the i8000. Same for the screen to show up after unlocking (resuming from standby).

3) UI - Many many loopholes and bugs. To name a few:

---Can't read exchange emails while set to Black Theme. Problems with font colour and background I guess. Other themes are fine.

---Sometimes there's no response when pressing the buttons in the mail/message widget

---Can't manage email folders when the Samsung UI is selected

---Disabling the Samsung UI on the Today Screen and selecting Messaging to show, while you select message to open in INBOX, it will automatically exits back to the Today Screen.

Sorry that my observations are also so negatives.
[General Topics] Monty Burns:
Guys

dont get hungup on processor speed. You cannot compare them easily and definitly not across diferent CPU manufacturers.

As for you i8000 experience, sorry to hear its so crap :( The Omnia range has an excellent reputation and i was seriously impressed with my 16gig Omnia. I would like to hope that Samsung will be very aggressive with the firmware updates on the new Omnias as they were with the older Omnias. Maybe you should visit the VERY usefull omnia.modaco.com, the guys there may be able to help you. As I said, Samsung have released many firmware upgrades for the older model, so fingers crossed, you should be ok in a month or soo...

Btw, my omnia (although now sitting in a draw as I have an acer m900) is running 6.5 very well.
[General Topics] 8525Smart:
Better a negative, honest opinion than a positive, false opinion.

I'm beginning to become a huge fan of Samsung devices (always great specs and design) and I was actually serious looking at another Samsung device which is very similar to the i8000: The B7610. If the experience may turn out to be as bad as the i8000, then frankly, I would rather just get the Omnia HD.

By the way, you might want to head over to Modaco. They were pretty great with Omnia i900 ROMs and may come out with a new ROM for the i8000 in the future. Unfortunately, though, they aren't really as active as the HTC community.

[General Topics] Bulldog:
I can imagine your disappointment for the performance. As I can see from the reviews and videos Samsung has made huge UI change. Many Samsung made application covering aged WinMo platform. Therefore I thing in the beginning the UI and performance will have issues. However I do thing Samsung will continue working on those and release new updates. Latest when WinMo6.5 will be official then you will have better performance. Meanwhile have you consider to using SPB Shell?? That might give you better performance with that processor

hi all

I to am looking for a new device i currently have the kaiser which is an awsome peice of kit made even better by all the support here @ xda. thanx ya`ll.

My main requirements are simlar to the mean vulcan`s with aditional requirement being that i need a better camera, one with a flash. I have an old cyber shot for work use and the camera is great but have to use my own phone when accessing the internet and would prefer just one device to lug about. So ive been looking at the new xpeiras that are on the way and they look good and have a decent spec on them but with no release date i dont think i can wait that long. Sony Ericson have the Aino and Astio on the way out but are relatively new to touch screen phones so i am dubious as to there performance. I would prefer to stick with a htc device mainly because of the support for customization here is 1st rate but have seen nothing of a new release that meets my high standards i have set for my next phone. So im still confused about what to do....

the omina 2 does look good though
[General Topics] pamburger:
My 3rd day with i8000. Struggling to get rid of it and it's totally because of its stupid UI. I must say, there's nothing wrong with the hardware, it got everything I need, cam with flash, good cpu, gps, tv out, big screen, good size....BUT the UI is very very disappointing. It feels like I am back to the Touch Diamond time, great hardware but poor UI, the UI made it so slow that you will keep thinking why the hell you bought the phone.

Maybe someone can teach me how to get rid of the Samsung UI completely and go back to basic WM6.1. I tried SPB shell, however, the shortcuts or application launch just brings me to Samsung customised applications. (They have gone really deep to customise the essential apps, e.g. Contact, Calendar and Messaging). I am most frustrated about not being able to get it to sync with other folders other than INBOX and DELETED.

It's not how the UI looks but rather how well it works. If you are looking for a phone that you can rely on, then I think you'd better wait until there's an rom update.

Thank you all for your suggestions, I will head over to modaco to see what other say about it :-)

pamburger, You have mentioned that you had the HTC HD before. Would you mind please to give a comparison (hardware and software, Quality of the device etc) between HD and SAMSUNG? Until now I have own only HTC devices and never had experience with Samsung. It Is not that I think HTC is good but I don’t know how bad is the others

[General Topics] pamburger:
Samsung i8000 vs Touch HD

1. Size and controls: i8000 is narrower than the HD hence easier one hand operation. I prefer hardware button over touch sensitive button, therefore i8000 is better. i8000 also has the back button and camera button which HD lacks.

2. Screen: i8000 is definitely brighter than the HD (at least 30%). However, because of this, the pixels are very obvious. On the contrarary, I find HD's screen displaying images a lot finer.

3. UI: I am sorry that I hate the i8000 UI. It seems to me that customisation of the UI has not been done thoroughly, leaving some part heavily customised while some very dull. Having said that, I know it's unfair to say i8000's UI is poorly customisation since Touch Flo is on V3 now. Maybe the next Samsung UI will improve. I have yet to find out a way to disable the Samsung UI so to get the WM6.1 back. Whereas for HD, all you need to do is to disable TouchFlo, and you will get WM6.1 back. Also, i8000 UI is not as responsive then Touch Flo. Expect to slide your finger, and wait for the next screen. Finally, the widgets on i8000 is nice to have.

4. Battery: i8000's battery is very good. With CPU power set to high, constant websurfing, checking emails, sms, and 40mins 3G talk time, the batt last almost 2days. HD's battery life as good only after flashing custom rom.

5. Camera and TV-out: i8000's camera is very efficient compared to the out of the box version of the HD. I love the LED flash which HD doesn't have. I've also heard people complaining that the HD doesn't have TV-out, but since I don't use it, I am not so sure about its significance.

6. Software that doesn't work with my i8000: CE-star (chinese software which you might not need), Advance Config.

7. Very personal: The price of HD should be very reasonable by now. If I were to choose between HD and i8000 now (assuming that I haven't used the HD before), I will definitely go for HD.

Reason 1: Cheaper

Reason 2: Better customer support

Reason 3: More roms to flash and a very helpful XDA-Developers community

Reason 4: Stableness
