Open sourced.

http://github.com/velazcod/Airplane-Mode-Wifi-Enabler/tree/master

That version includes bluetooth support, however, it doesn't work.

Enjoy, hopefully we get this enabled in custom roms. All you guys have to do is that in the Settings.System.AIRPLANE_MODE_RADIOS, make the default values to 'cellphone, bluetooth' instead of 'cellphone,bluetooth,wifi'. Those are the radios that will be turned off when Airplane Mode is enabled, so if you remove a value from that csv list and that value's radio should stay on.

As you can see, wifi works fine, but bluetooth and cellphone do not, they keep turning off without the ability to be turned on after setting airplane mode.

I'm trying to request all devs to do this. :D

Saw this on WinMo twitter( http://twitter.com/windowsmobile)

http://wmdeals.com/

It`s pretty scarce on detail, I guess it`s with 3 year contract. I figure I would post it for future T-Mo user...

EDIT: it's on a two year Contract.

If anyone gives it a try post your experience!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] |Blitzkrieg|:
I used this deal back when I got my T-Mobile Shadow. I plan on doing so again for the Touch Pro 2, probably tomorrow. I'll post about how it goes!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] vdKarel:
A 3-year contract? People actually sign those? Aren't you (in the end) paying more than double?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] petard:
That site doesn't even mention contracts... Where did you get the 3 year contract from?

It will require a 2 year contract, T-Mobile doesn't offer 3 year contracts.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] JonnoB:
Great deal

I already have a family plan that is maxed out (5 lines). Between myself, my wife, my 18 year old colege freshman, my 16 year old (HS junior), and 14 almost 15 yr old (sophmore) we were maxed out.

I ordered with this promotion getting a 2-line family plan (all activation, etc waived) and getting it for $300 + tax, etc for 2 of them shipped. Note that the promotion also includes other phones and the @Home package if you are so inclined. Awesome deal.

Basically, I am spending between $50 and $150 than many people and getting two of these phones for it. I had to get the new data plan. I have the old grandfathered $19.99 plan on my other phones and $10 unlimited family messaging plans... wish I could use the same plan.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] petard:
So you now have 2 more lines than you used to have? Doesn't that cost about $70 more per month? That is $1680 for 2 years, FAR more than the difference of just buying 2 unsubsidized Touch Pro2s...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] botsmack:
Would someone explain how this works, if you are already an existing T-Mobile customer? Do I have to call T-Mobile and cancel, then call this other number and sign back up? I know this deal saves $200, but this seems like a lot of trouble to go through. Plus, how do you keep your current phone number?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] |Blitzkrieg|:
The number is T-Mobile Business Direct. They'll be able to handle everything on the phone with you.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] labbbby:
My bad, I just assumed it would be the longest contract since it didn't mentioned anything.

I wasn't aware that T-mobile didn't have them, we sure as hell have them in Canada!

Thanks for the correction, good luck to the T-Mo guys, sound like a very descent deal!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] valenumr:
T-mobile OEM on the AT&T network?

I'm wondering, if I buy the T-mo version, can I just SIM-unlock it and run it on the AT&T network, or will the radio ROM not work on the AT&T band? Any thoughts? sick of waiting for AT&T, and they're probably gonna fark up the keyboard anyhow.

No 3G/HSPA

Will work for Call and Edge no problems.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] petard:
Yeah 3 year contracts would suck! No U.S. carries have 3 year contracts. I actually select 1 year contract when I upgrade. I pay the same price as 2-year because I have AT&T Premier (you have access to Premier if you have a discount from your place of employment). This way I get to upgrade to the latest HTC phone every year. And every year around this time is horrible waiting for the next one to come out!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] labbbby:
Lucky you, I mostly have to get unlocked phone which are expensive, no contract, but lotsa cash =/

Life was easier before 3G. I will mostly get stuck with crappy AT&T keyboard layout as well thought lol.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] |Blitzkrieg|:
Called and ordered today, everything went down well :)

As an existing customer (off contract) my CS rep first offered to set up a new account (with a new phone#) or add an additional line to my existing account in order to take advantage of the deal. I asked if there was any way I could keep my # and get the deal, or if there was another deal somewhere in-between this and $350 the T-Mobile shops are asking.

She took a moment to check with her manager, who approved, and I got the deal with my current phone number, no problem. Also waived activation and added free shipping. Should have the phone by friday!

This is the 3rd or 4th time I've dealt with Business Direct instead of regular CS, and the folks there are amazing. Much <3 to Amy, my rep today :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] petard:
Nice! I played with the T-Mobile TP2 at my local T-Mobile store and I just can't wait to get my own! AT&T's version will supposedly release in October! So long!

I know most people hate the AT&T keyboard layout, but I prefer it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] |Blitzkrieg|:
Argh, perhaps I spoke too soon :/

The CS rep I spoke with had told me I should receive a confirmation e-mail along with a tracking # in my e-mail some time this afternoon, and that if I didn't I should call back to find out what was going on. So sure enough, no e-mail, so I called Business Direct back...

According to the rep I just spoke with, there was an "open order" on my account, but with no phone or contract details whatsoever. He could find no information about the voice/data plans I had set up, nor anything on the phone itself.

I intend to call back tomorrow, in the hopes that Amy (who had mentioned she was having trouble entering the data into the regular system and had to enter the information in manually(?)) has been able to clear this up. My fear is that another CS rep won't be able to give me the same deal Amy was able to work out with her supervisor. Bah!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] kable:
Just called in and ordered a new line for our family plan and got the 149.99 price. The rep explained that since the TP2 orders have to be done manually it would take an extra day for the order to be completed. Phone should arrive 3-5 days.

Since I am already out of contract I will just cancel my current line once the Tp2 arrives. No Web plan was required to get this deal either. Just unlimited text messages which we already have on the family plan.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] |Blitzkrieg|:
That's good to know, Kable. I'll give it some extra time to make its way through the system then :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] JonnoB:
Yes, but I needed 2 more lines anyway because my family plan was already stretched to 5 lines and I needed a phone for my son and another phone line for my side business.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] peter.aviano:
1 year contract

guys

read thro the thread. earlier, using business direct, i always got my wing(s) and shadow for 1 yr contract. any luck this time.

did any of the folks who already order it ask if 1 yr contract was possible?

thanks

pete
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] kable:
I didn't ask to be honest because I was so happy about the 149.99 price but I would imagine there was a 1 year option for a higher phone price.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] EvilDeadFan:
I signed a 3 year deal, since that's all they offere in Canada (Telus) but I managed to talk my mostly unlimited everything contact down to $45 after taxes. That, and after selling my used 6 month old Touch Pro for $280 two weeks ago, I basically only spent $25 for activating the new phone (unavoidable being cdma).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] |Blitzkrieg|:
I too got a 1-year contract when I ordered my Shadow. This time I didn't ask, I'm perfectly happy with a 2-year contract.

Also, another update on my situation: Confirmation e-mail arrived this morning! As Kable said, it ended up taking an extra day. Fine by me! Phone was shipped earlier today, so if I'm lucky it'll arrive by saturday :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] labbbby:
Nice, happy for you guys, that's a killer deal. Most site were *****ing against the high price so it's nice to see you can get it cheaper when you're look around =).

I still need to find one that will do 3G on Fido/Rogers network =(
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Tproof:
Its on it way

I just order mine and it on it we. It will be here on Monday. Thanks for the info, saved me a lot of money. :D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] booshwa:
Tried calling today to get the phone for $150, no go. They said I have to be a new customer...will try again another time!!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] acesmythe:
I got mine for $279 down from $350 because they quoted me the wrong price over the phone and notated my account with it :D

The linked deal is for new accounts only, I already had my MDA through T-Mobile :/
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] testaccount:
i added a line to my family plan, got the phone yesterday and called up cancellation department to get rid of one of my OOC line while doing a msisdn reuse on my number, they dropped the data plan while they were at it, i am back on my tzone line with my new touch pro 2 now.

:D
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] |Blitzkrieg|:
Got my Touch Pro 2 yesterday! Amy @ Business Direct was brilliant, got me the deal even though I'm a was an existing customer. Started a new line of service to get the deal, then yesterday when I received the phone we cancelled my OLD line and requested its # be transfered to the new one. Took ~24 hours, just got notice an hour ago my old phone number has been successfully xfer'd

So far I'm VERY happy with the phone. I'll start tweaking some of the settings soon, but for now I'm just basking in the glory of this beauty
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] kable:
received my phoe in less than 24 hours using next day air forqw bucks.

its alittle slower than i expexted speed wise but nothing that a custom rom won't fix..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] petard:
What price/contract length was it?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] |Blitzkrieg|:
$150 on 2-year contract
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Rim1Flex:
How much did you guys have to pay up front. Like did they waive the activation fee?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] booshwa:
I think it's BULL **** that they only offer the $150 price to NEW customers!! What about those of us who have been with them for 6 years or more!! Total crap.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] |Blitzkrieg|:
Ask and ye shall receive

I did
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] CraZyLiLbOy:
Because they want to make new customers by selling them a new phone with that price. That's a way to make more money. Business is business. They don't care if you have been with them for 10 years.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ikuikuikuiku:
ok i have a question

do u have to take data plan with this offer? or can i just the phone and the minutes?

im a college student so i wont be using as much data plan and i dont wanna waste $65/mo

thanks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] kable:
Yes a data plan is required . minimum plan is 24.95/month. This held my order up until it was added later that day.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] kable:
Nothing up front if you have other phones with them its just added to your Bill. If you are a new sub then you will have to pay upfront. Yes Activation is FREE with this promotion.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] rojovenom:
So what the run down?

Do I have to be a Business go on this? and what plans do they have?

does have to be a Family Plan or Individual will work and what plan will not blow my budget of $110 a month?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Rim1Flex:
I wonder if i can get a override because, I am a college student as well. If they want a new customer maybe they will let the date plan go :).
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] harsaphes:
WOOT...just got off the phone and got myself the TP2 for 149!..YAHOO!..be here on Tuesday morning....the rep couldn't have been nicer. I'm all set and thanks to you guys for alerting me to the special.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] kable:
You do not have to be a business account to take advatage of the offer.

You can have any plan T-mobile offers AS LONG as you include a data plan ( I assme that would exclude pay as you go though ).

My faves for 39.99 for the plan and 24.95 fr data is the lowest I think price wise. it goes up from there. Check their website for prices. we pay 122 a month for 4 cells on a family plan with 1 having a data plan.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] galaxys:
Congratz! What's the details: 2 years? new line? $phone plan? $data plan?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] harsaphes:
New contract, two years, phone, unlimited text and data.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Crazya:
Mine's on the way as well! It's a pretty good deal...

$149 for the phone... 2 yr contract, No activiation fee, free shipping, Voice $39.99 and data $34.99...
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Arcarsenal:
Just got mine in the mail from Business Direct via UPS overnight - really pleased.

I ended up returning the TP2 I bought with a one year extension last night so I could take advantage of the deal.

As soon as the phone arrived I called up Cust. Service and got my OOC line cancelled and the number ported to the new line. Rep said this should take around 24 hours.

Couldn't take my 19.99 total internet with the new line because of the 2 year contractual obligation of the 24.99 plan.

Really happy with how fast the transaction took; Andrew at T-Mobile made it painless. If you're still within your 14 day buyers remorse I would definitely take advantage of this deal.

edit: my old phone number was back working about 8 hours after my sim reuse request, no problems. Awesome!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] slipin3:
sweet

thanks for the heads up. i called today and the csr was the best. i added another line of service. im on a 2yr flexpay with one year left. i called customer care earlier this week and they told me 450.00!!!! then i tryed my local stores and the same. some even higher!!! ill be getting mine next week ( free 2-4 day ups shipping) anyone who reads this post should call them and get this price. i hve a HTC-s620 which i love again with wm6.5 but i wanted a touch screen phone with keypad for a good price.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] agentkalaw:
Hi All,

I currently have a rooted G1. I want to jump on this deal but still keep my G1. I've read that a data only plan is possible with this deal and that's exactly what fits my needs. I just need data and text. Currently you can't get that with any TMO plan. you can with AT&T but I won't get 3g. So long story short, I was wondering if I can get this phone and the data only plan then use it's SIM on my G1. Would TMO care that my IMEI doesn't match? it would be showing that i was using a g1 instead of a TP2. thanks everyone!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] harsaphes:
well i sent my phone back...just not for me.

I had the Iphone and now the Mytouch. The TP2 was my first Touchflo experience, and while I am sure it has made the winmo experience much better, for me it is not as smooth as the Iphone or Android.

My only complaint with the Mytouch is its a little small, but really I love having one handed use and the scrolling and selection is super fast and smooth.

I wanted to love the TP2, but sorry.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] indelible:
Ordered mine on Tuesday, getting it TODAY! I added a line to my family plan.

$163 after taxes, removed data plan on tmobile.com by changing my phone to a razr.

If I cancel after 30 days (I'm in California), then they'll only charge me the ETF of $200, I won't have to pay the subsidy of $400, right?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] testaccount:
your contract says otherwise, but who knows.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sleonard:
I ordered mine this morning before going to work. A few hours later I looked at Newegg and saw the TMO TP2 for $199 but it didn't seem to be requiring a data plan to order the phone. I'm thinking about sending the one back and paying the extra $50 to Newegg for a data-plan-free TP2. I'm afraid that TMO will soon realize the "mistake" and then force me to add a data plan anyway.

I also noticed the TMO TP2 on Amazon.com for $149 but they do require you to add a data plan when you purchase the phone.

[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] velazcod:
yesterday i was thinking that a year ago, the iPhone updated its operating system to support this, then I started checking that it was just a system setting on android, its just that there was no interface to change it... I couldn't believe that nobody has done it before.

I wrote it this morning and I just made it available in the market for free.

Here's more info http://bit.ly/kOoRW

[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] velazcod:
So who's willing to test drive the new version?

It worked on my phone ONCE, and then it didn't work again. I have checked everything and bluetooth keeps turning off, I'm starting to think this part of the android's "airplane mode" is broken, but let's see.

I tried it on 2 other phones and didn't work.

Hi, I have a Diamond bought from ebay that does not boot.

I can only obtain the 4 colors screen with this statement (power+vol down):

DIAM100 MFG 64M

SPL-1.40 Olinex

MicroP-Diam (LED)v11

PSOC-Diam STAGE_PVT v0x30

I've tried to flash several type of radios and roms, everything seems to be ok but the Diamand still does not boot and I obtain always the same statement (really strange if I flash a different radio!).

I can also do an hard reset, the item seems to erase everything but nothing happens, the Diamond does not boot.

Any ideas?

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Black Bear:
Same here...olinex

got the same issues I think the unlocker I bought from olinex killed my diamond. I sent it to HTC to investigate and it was confimed, and the fixing price 235.00 pounds. I don't think there is fix to it from here??????:mad:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] supersanj:
Have you tried doing a hard rest including the NAND format?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] HarryCustom:

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] HarryCustom:
I don't understand what you mean, please explain better! :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Söderström:
Download the offical rom from htc.com

connect the phone to your computer

Reset the diamond, the reset button is under the stylus

and hold volume down button to enter the bootloader

In the button strip the word "USB" should popup

try to install the rom now, works for me
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] HarryCustom:
My phone is branded, so i cannot download from HTC, I've tried with the H3G Rom, that is my carrier, but nothing.

I think I can do nothing... :(
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Humblehippie:
Download ROM from HTC

You can download from HTC if you change your serial. I have an Unbranded Diamond, & when I enter my serial at the HTC upgrade page, it states that there is no ROM upgrade for my device. So, I changed the serial. :eek:

Only change the first set of #s. {i.e. for HT840FU69420 you Change 840}. Yours will have an SZ where this has HT {SZ is carrier specific Model; HT is HTC Factory Model} Keep changing the number using you number as a starting point {i.e. 840-841-842 & so on occasionally you will need to go down as well 840-839-838 ...} Keep trying different numbers until you find a ROM for your language.

The serial listed above is NOT valid!!

The backlight from the hardware-buttons works only after pushing one of the buttons... In fact, I think that's one push to late... :cool: ... certainly when you are in the darkness...

Is there a possibility to let them lighting up at the same time as the screen-backlight?

You won't save any battery time.. there lit up by a LED.. So they don't consume anything, ok.. a very little bit. But that won't extend your battery time.
