O2 Stealth

Hi folks, I am new here. Jst bought a O2 stealth and need to know wat platform (HTC...etc) that it is running on. Also, if there is any AD2P cabs that is found here to use my Motorola headphones... :O
Thanks in Advance.
O2 XDA Stealth is made by Gigabyte not by HTC. Therefore its platform is not on currently this site.
That's right... But let's hope more info can be made available here for the stealth, as it was for atom (also not manufactured by HTC)...
Thanks folks!
is it possible that you can extract the answering machine software on O2 Stealth for us?

how do you find the stealth?? a good device.. can you give more details please...
Definitely much more stable than its siblings (atom and exec) as I had made some comparison with my friend's unit. So far so good as I have not enounter serious problems with it except that the number pad is a bit too soft. When dialing a number or messaging using T9, you will definitely miss a letter or number.
Another thing is on the communication manager. If you turn on and off bluetooth or wireless LAN too often, it will slow down the overall performance. other than these two, no further complains. I believe o2 will release a rom upgrade soon to rectify these little bugs here and there.
Hello i'm newbie. I have problem with O2 stealth...
1. How to use slide keypad without T9 menu
2. Why performance O2 stealth worst than O2 Atom (not exec)
3. Do anyone have upgrade rom for O2 Stealth....
Thanks...
I need XDA Stealth ROM update. Can you tell me where I can download it? I tried to download from O2 web but it says no soft update needed but i need to reflash my phone, thanks

Wait, what is the name of this forum site? xda-developers, not HTC developers. It should be supported on this site.

Our portal page has the following welcome message:
Welcome to xda-developers.com
This site is about certain PDA-phones, made by a secretive firm called HTC in Taiwan. Their makers named them 'Wallaby', 'Himalaya', 'Blue Angel', 'Wizard' and 'TyTN', but almost nobody knows them by those names. The mobile provider O2 sells them under the brand-name 'XDA', and that's what we had in our hands first. They're also known as Qtek, MDA, SX-56, Hermes and many, many other names.
Since we develop software for it, we need information, and nobody seemed eager or ready to give us what we needed. So we 'reverse-engineered' the devices, found a lot of information, and shared it with the world. But as our site grew we realised that lots of ordinary users were also suffering from a lack of support. They started using the xda-developers forum to communicate and before long the forum was as much a user forum as it was a developer forum.
We hope that you will enjoy this site and find it as useful as we do. We encourage you to donate or otherwise support this site. Of course absolutely all proceeds from donations will benefit this community.
If you look closely you will also see that not all phones made by HTC have a place on this forum simply because there isn't room to give every phone a forum.
Best regards,

Memory Help !!
Hey people .. My stealth is perfectly for each n everything. I am just facing one problem. My Main Memory is continuously reducing. It reduces by like .2mb in every 5 minutes. I have no idea y this is happening. Can anyone telme how to stop this ?? u can also reply on [email protected]
praneet0007,
I think maybe there is a software causing you the problem. My Stealth got no problem like yours. Maybe you can do a hard reset and install the software one by one to find out which one is causing you the problem.
P/S My first post is replied to your first post. LOL
thnx
hey thnx anyways .. i gave the fone a restart .. now its not goin down continously .. most of d stays at the same storage .. howeva sumtimes it reduces by .1 or .2mb ... but i dont wanna hard reset it coz of 2 tings ... i dont wanna lose my contacts n msgs .. contacts i wont if i do by outlook n stuff .. but i dont wanna install outlook on my comp .. n without that rite now .. i cannot bakup my contacts .. n msgs i nyways cannot .... the 2nd ting is .. im not able 2 register my fone on the web yet .. it says 'ur IMEI is available 7 days after ur purchase' .. its already bin 11 days now .. ill contact o2 mumbai on fone 4 this issue in a cuple of days .. thnx 4 ur help anyways ..
Problem
I have a problem with my new device, O2 XDA Stealth Pocket Pc. It was working just fine for 4 days now, but today for some unknown reason the java program has been lost. I cant find it anywhere. Can anyone help me pls?
praneet0007,
The main memory you mention above is the RAM or ROM? If RAM, that's normal. If ROM, it can be many reason, example like you use the pocket ie to online, the cache, history, etc can reduce the memory.
I didn't use Outlook either, I used Jeyo Mobile Companion to backup all my contact and messages. Or you can use the backup application that comes with the handset.
For the register stuff, not really sure what's wrong, you better check with O2 for that.
pploutarchou,
Accidently deleted or it just disappear like that? Try looking in the program files see whether it still there or not.
ching4ever
I dont remember deleting it myself neither i find it in the program files. Either way i dont know how i can delete it from the program files. Is there anywhere i can download it again?

Debranding the Kaiser?

Hi guys,
I've just received my T mobile branded Kaiser. It's called the Vario 3.
As i am not looking to use the device with tmobile. Is it possible to debrand this device? If so, please explain how. My assumtption is that i'll need to upload a generic rom to the device.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Please read the forum first, before you post a question...
Especially the sticky threads...
To be short:
We know it's called the Vario 3 / Vario III
...
You can probably unbrand the outside by rubbing some sugar against the logo's (I don't take any responsability for this, but it's known to be working on a T-Mobile MDA Vario I).
Th 'inside' is also known as the ROM an can't be unbranded yet...
Just wait untill we are able to CID-unlock it, so you can flash the ROM with an unbranded one...
For now you can hard-reset (format) it and jst after the screen alignment when it's counting down for customization soft-reset it by pushing your stylus up the little hole in the bottom of your device...
Good luck...
Oh, and...
Welcome to the Kaiser forum
Hi,
Sorry for not reading the sticky stuff, i'm just not that familiar with the technical terms for these devices so i thought me asking 'again' novice-style may be cool. Thanks for your help on this mate.
No problem...
I started out this way too, so...
I can tell you it's really worth it to dive in to this forum...
You can learn a lot if you check the threads once in a while...
Be carefull with advanced adjustments to your device, especially when you haven't got the right ROM for backup...
On the other hand, don't be scared to try out some stuff, because it's very hard to brick a device...
BTW:
Bricking means you screw up youre device so terribly (beyond repair) that it's turned in to a brick / expensive paperweight...
Just tried putting in my vodaphone sim into the Vario 3 and it says SIM LOCK code needed....Any advice where to get one from apart from t mobile?
Sorry...
I guess you'll have to wait...
pof is working on a CID-unlocker and probalby on a way to SIM-unlock it too...
I heard it's a difficult procedure, because the way it's simlocked is 'new'...
Maybe you can try www.imei-check.co.uk...
It's a paid service...
Decide for yourself if you're willing to pay, or have the patience to wait for a free solution...
I'm definatley sticking with the last one...

Looking at HTC/XDA's and need advice and help!

Hi guys/gals,
I'm going to be getting a work mobile in a few weeks on the O2 network in the UK. I was thinking of a blackberry but then saw the XDA's (HTC). I don't really need a PDA but its a works phone and having excel would make my job a lot easier as I don't have a laptop but need some access to excel in the warehouse, as well as outlook and messenger when I'm out on site.
Now the 2 that's I'm looking at are the XDA Stellar (http://www.my-xda.com/devices/xda_stellar.jsp) and Orbit 2 (http://www.my-xda.com/devices/xda_orbit2.jsp). The problem is that they are just re-branded on the O2 network and I cant figure out which are the related HTC phones. So could someone tell me which are which so i can do some more research.
I have been reading review and seems the Stellar is a better PDA/phone as its got the slide out KB. But typical O2, i cant really tell what are the differences as one pages says one thing and the other something else.
Does the stellar have a touch screen like the orbit, with the same funtionality?
Both do Wifi and GPS?
can i get tomtom software for the XDA?
whats the battery life like on both phones? (I have heard horror stories when using 3G or WiFi with a sub 4 hour battery life)
Can u 'image' the OS and stuff like u can on a PC to back up everything? (i ask because I do like to have a play and its nice to know u can get it back to factory settings again)
any helpful links u peeps might have to gimmi a help deciding? reviews, guides ect ?
Sorry for all the questions. I really like the look of them but have never had a chance to use one so I thought i would be best to ask soem people who know the in's and out's.
thanks for the help i hope to receive!!!
Peace
SN
ha haa..
no help but i sorted it out anyway. Stellar/TyTn II is the plan.

It is what it is. All HTC phones are locked into specific roms ( usually designated by the carrier) to keep people from bricking their phones with roms that are not made for their phones.
If it is an Orange phone, then all updates have to come from Orange. If you want to be able to use any Kaiser rom or software, you will have to unlock it here.

First you need to know if you have a CDMA device or a GSM one (with SIM card)
Then what OS want WM or Android
