Anyone help me out here. I get my upgrade very soon and I'm going for a traditional phone 'cause I don't see enough major differences in the 2i , mini, or 2s to warrant me spending £200.
So I want to put my XDA II on a prepay sim, but what the best operator to go with from a GPRS angle? I'm looking at money wise and the ability to sign into msn messenger.
Thanks
check out prepaidgsm.net - they have lots of info
Hi all,
Anyone know or guesstimate for UK release for the upcoming X7510. Any ideas on which UK networks it will be released on. T-mobile I presume is a pretty safe bet on ideas on Vodafone etc?
Thanks for taking the time to read this and look forward to any info.

i heard it was going to be on orange...
id say youre right about t-mobile, but iw willl probe be silver [urgh !]
vodafone, i doubt it, they dont have many ppc's, and o2, the same, but then again, they could surprise us.

o2 were the first in this country with a windows PDA phone namely the original XDA (also made by HTC) so you never know they might get them yet.
Hi Tom,
At the moment Vodafone don't have any details regarding the release of the X7510.
I have saved this threads URL so if I do get any information in relation to the phone I will let you know.
Sorry I couldn't give you any more information.

With the release of the HTC Fuze and support for the 850 and 900 UMTS bands does this mean that the device will be suitable for the Telstra Next G Network in Australia as they use the same bands? I've gotten conflicting answers from contact within Oz, so i thought it best to ask you guys!

yes they will. though telstra has something nice up their sleeves too
Thanks
I'd be very interested to hear more. I asked at Two Telstra shops yesterday and there was a large silence before they said no...thought something was a bit suss
Please, please my JASJAM is dying slowly but definitely not gracefully and am hanging to get this phone on NextG (due to location).
Have been watching forums for any news along with pestering Telstra but still no joy.
Telstra and something nice don't normally go together...so I'm very intrigued!
Im in the same position. My jasjam is trooping on, but i would love one of these on the NextG network.
Keep this thread updated with any news from Telstra.
My dopod 838 is on the way out :-(
Mobicity is the only place I have seen selling a specific NextG Touch Pro but Im a bit dubious about it...
Something nice? I have to agree with VinEquity.. telstra and nice dont go togeather. "look at the pretty lights, ignore the horror of the charges." and what is usually up their sleeve is another charge.
I've given up on the Fuze for the moment due to the cost of getting one into Australia, approx $900 from someone on ebay with no warranty etc.
It would be good to see Telstra pick up the Touch Pro & the Touch HD in the near future but they have been way behind Vodafone, Optus & even Three for launches of major phones such as the Nokia E72, BlackBerry Bold (6 weeks after Optus even thought Telstra were supposed to have an 'exclusive') and now the Omnia
no one else has looked into the mobicity? they are pretty adament it is a next g phone.
Got an email back from mobicity, it appears these touch pros are actually fuze's. They have an AT&T logo on them.
the uk touch pro has 850/900 band...i got mine a few months before it came out in australia and works well on optus (havent tried next g since dont have telstra sim). it cost au$900 which is 350 less than outright from austalia
Hey xternal, just spoke to Telstra again, girl had the TP on her list of Next G handsets but no stock available until early December. She's going to call me on my JASJAM, if it survives that long, when stock arrives....Not counting any chickens yet!
Spoke to Telstra again today. The girl said she had the TP on her list of Next G handsets but no stock available yet. She spoke to her supervisor who said early December...that's only next week!!!!!! I'll be phoning back on the 1st, 2nd... until I get my hands on one. My JASJAM has starting givng me the white screen of death so it should all fall into place nicely or am I counting my chickens prematurely.
Hey thanks for the update. My contract is up in dec so could be perfect!
Still no sign
Talked to telstra today, they said they have no idea when it will be released, they just released the Nokia 96 on Monday so I dont think It will be too soon, but who knows
Telstra reps get confused easily
The Telstra stores and also the business side easily get confused. I regularly deal with a very senior corporate mobile person in Telstra and he refers to the diamond as the pro. They have no immediate plans for the TP. Their preference is the Sony as an exclusive deal. It's all about carrying devices you cant get elsewhere and creating the perception of being different.
I have a TP and use a Next G sim in it. It only gets UMTS (900+2100) and GSM (900+1800). The phone easily roams to 3 which is half telstra 'owned' anyway and I have H coverage for my data almost continuously, occasionaly it drops back to Edge.
Hopefully, they will get the TP 850, I remain ever hopeful.!
Oh well, i bit the bullett and ordered a fuze. Should be here sometime between xmas/new year.
Ill let you know how it goes. I just couldnt hold out any longer. It seems telstra are getting the X1 not the touch pro
Hi all,
Just received the HTC Fuze from Mobicity, and dropped in a Telstra Next G sim and all works fine.
I used the guide below to get HSPDA working, (disabled by default as some of you know)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=459335
Use the following settings for the telstra.wap:
Connection name: Telstra.Wap
Data Bearer: GPRS/Packet Data
Access Point Name (or APN): telstra.wap
USERNAME: (Leave Blank)
Password: (Leave Blank)
Authentication: Normal
Proxy: 10.1.1.181
Proxy> Advanced >WAP: 10.1.1.150:9201
Proxy> Advanced >Socks: 10.1.1.181:1080
Having problems with telstra.corp (authentication issues) for those wanting to have it join thier company WAN, but will let you know how that goes. Will flash and use another radio if I have to.
Oh MY GOD! There is someone out there wit a FUze on NextG! Rom/radio trials? Any good?

I popped my mums telstra sim card in and it appears to work fine
yeah but is she nextg? or just gsm? my touch pro runs fine with my telsra sim, but only gsm. ive got "3g" up on my fuze....after olipro sim unlock...
Hi all,
Can anyone confirm that the Kaiser can fully utilize 3g data on the TMobile US 3g network? I have seen several (old) articles that pre-date the release of the Kaiser saying it may be the 'first 3g windows mobile phone available'. I have the opportunity to get an AT&T tilt from someone I know, but before I go through the process of unlocking the sim and flashing the ROM I'd like to know if it is worth my while. I've been waiting for the pharos traveler 137 to be released for a few months now but I know that Tmobile has no interest in carrying it ( I talked to a few service reps, and they just play dumb and say they've never heard of pharos or a 3g capable WM phone). So without the plan upgrade discount the phone is going to be $600, all for the luxury of using the 3g network on a phone that actually supports msexchange email.
between aardvark ( company developing ms direct push app for android), the pharos smartphone, and getting info on this TyTn II i feel like I've been doing a whole lot of waiting for a phone that has what I feel are two very basic features nowadays on other networks
Comments appreciated,

Works Good Dude!! i'm in CT, in USA and have used a kaiser with my tmobile sim, works faster
unfortunately, you get Edge only. Few PPC's have tmob 3G off the wall 1700/2100 mhz radio combo. The G1 has it, and maybe a few other New PPC's.
IMPORTANT:
Hello everyone, I just was trying to download and install Android 2.1 (haret) on my Htc Diamond 2 in these last 3 weeks without any luck.
Unfortunately I found out that all the Roms from xda or from other sources installed cannot connect with O2 Uk Network....With friends at Carphone Warehouse and O2 stores we arrived at the conclusion that for some reasons the Roms are not writed to get O2. BT Cellnet was the old name for O2 but there's a problem on data, No Internet connection or at times not even 2G or 3G signal. Does anyone on xda-developers aware of this? Is there a solution?. We really appreciate if someone give us some information. Vodafone. Orange and T-Mobile have no problems whatsoever...We would like the same for O2. Thanks
