O2 XDA Atom - General Topics

I´m thinking of order this one.
Have som questions.
1. Is it the same menyes as in 9100?
2. Can I have all pocket pc programs in it as in 9100?
3. Is it possible to get T9 in swedish on numpad so I can write sms fast?
Any swedish people in here have this today, would like to ask some questions...?
Thx..

I don't think the Atom is released yet to the general public. I've read it should be available mid December...can't wait to hear how it performs.

FYI, atom is released in singapore today. I am expecting advertisements to be out in full force tomorrow. So much for the hyped-up limited sets released. Just in case anyone is interested, the price is SGD$1348 retail.

It is out in HK now and I saw Expansys has already posted it on the official website. But it sells RMB 6240, which is equivlent to USD 780 per unit. It is wayyyyyy expansive. Does anyone know where can I get it with much cheaper price? Chinese version will be a plus.

Some O2 Atom images which I took here
sorry for the blur image as i dun have a good camera with me at that time
I tested it for a day and discovered that it's more laggy than Exec, there seems to have alot of issues on Atom too read here

Expansion Packs (Expansys)

Happy Brand New Year Y'all.
Listen. Just browsed the following pages at Expansys.com regarding the above. Can someone tell me what hardware differences there are between the two devices. I'll be damned if the Expansion Pack for I-Mate could not work with the XDAII. Check out the price difference!

I just rang them and they said they are 2 identical products but with different manufacturies (excuise my spelling) hence the different price, the Cheaper £82 inc VAT should be ready first week in Feb

wooh Bo Selcta got to Jamica great show, they are identical though quite a rip of and I dont belive for one moment they different manufactures just different boxes that HTC packaged them in
when the rep said to me "different manufactures" i did say "do you mean from different airtime providers" he said "yeh yeh different manufactures" So i take it he had no idea the phone was sold in 2 formats but they are both the same.

So did anyone work out if the I-mate backpack fits & works on the XDAII?
well since they are both HTC Himalaya
and the only difference between I-mate, xda2 and mda2
is a printet label on the device and custom rom
then unless they made some software block it would work
CF Backpacks
Yes - They are all interchangeable ...
BTW: If anyone has one they want to sell, I need a couple for a project..
[email protected] if you've got one
Cheers

Expansys, ey? Fact is that both are not available yet and in good Expansys tradition they list products for pre-order that they cannot deliver on - they just want you to place a pre-order and hope you will stick with it once the product becomes available... OK, prices on this path are just entirely wrong, but who cares about customers at Expansys anyway :lol:
Agree Frank
Have to agree, Frank - I notice you're a local . They should at least be stating accurately when a product is to be released and what the likely wait times are.
Not to mention the fact that the grey market of these products through Expansys just messes up the support channels here in Australia. We can't compete with a zero warranty, zero support product here!!! We've got to factor replacement, support and warranty costs - Real people, real families and real time...
It's hard enough supporting the issues in the current iMate lines (Like helping customers install Widcomm Bluetooth stacks to get GPS units and Navigation systems like Destinator working) - Now that O2 is looking like it'll pull out of Australia altogether now that the Telstra Australia deal pulled away from O2 to iMate (Carrier devices) ... It's going to be interesting what happens with the grey market for these products...
Carrier Devices won't touch a unit from outside Australia!
Cheers.

Has anyone tried a CF Wi-FI (802.11b) card with the expansion pack?
Do standard CF memory cards stick out a lot or are they flush when installed?
I'm thinking about an i-Mate or XDA-II but I'll need the expansion pack and the ability for Wi-FI (802.11b).
Thank you in advance for the help...
JB
Someone has to actually get the Backpack before we can try it :wink:
I ordered one from a place that it was suggested actually had them in stock. I ordered, knowing full well of course that I'd get the "we apologize, but..." e-mail. And of course, a few hours later, I got that e-mail. They claim they had been told this week they would get them, now they are told next Wed Jan 28th. I'll believe it when I see a shipment tracking number. I think HTC has been saying "next week" for the Backpack since November.
I have a Socket CF WiFi card I've been dying to try. My Sandisk SD card works fine, but its a bit awkward the way it sticks out so far and the Socket CF card, with its small antenna, would not seem to extend beyond the edge of the XDA, according to the pictures I've seen of the CF slot on the Backpack.
HTC has handled their accessories very poorly IMO. I don't understand what the holdup is getting them out. The XDA II has been out for months now, but try and get even something as basic as a spare battery. At this rate, the XDA III will be out just as accessories for the XDA II are hitting stores :lol:
OK - thanks.
I had not realized that the backpacks were not "shipping" yet.
Please keep us posted. :wink:

CF Backpack delivery date!
G'day All,
The CF backpack shipment here is due on Feb 21st 2004. ie. Another few weeks... That's the iMate branded one.. It'll be interesting to see if the O2 branded ones turn up first - But I DEFINITELY doubt it!!
Cheers

P.S. If you want one, http://estore.pressd.com in the Pocket PC Section.
Expansion Packs have arrived at expansis UK
I have cantacted Expansis and asked when they will have the expansion packs. They say in 4 working days (Monday in my reconing)
http://www.expansys.com/product.asp?code=109731&asource=106055
They aslo said this is their second shipment as the first lot had run out.
I also noticed that the O2 version has now gone up in price from their previous listing and is very similar to the imate price. But you have to wait 40 days for it.
If anyone has tried it out yet let me know what you think.

Angry against HTC

HTC Touch cruise had to be commercialized since 29th november.
In France, Only Surcouf had 10 pieces at the end of december.
So, where is it ?
I start to ask myself if I will study to buy other pda because i can't wait now more than 15 days.
HTC, are you thinking you can take customers as idiots ?
I was hoping having TC for christmas then for the new year and now, i have phoned to the big french store and none of them have order this model.
And no way to know which store will be selling the phone. I can't contact HTC.
Please, HTC, don't sell phone you don't have in stock and don't be surprised your sells was bad in december !
Ziggy
You can find HTC cruise on pixmania or materiel.net sur expansys.fr sur ldlc.com but not before the 16/01.
ps:si tu le trouves ailleur avant dit le moi
I am searching the HTC TC with illimythic SFR subscription but illimythic will end the 22 of january, argghh and it's less expensive to buy the HTC TC with a subscription (about 150 € less i think, maybe more)
PS : d'accord

It's Dutch. The posting says that HTC is expected to start shipping TCs in week 9, so orders will be shipped in week 10. At the moment, it is unclear why HTC can't/won't ship TCs.

Is the timing of this and the court decision against Qualcomm just a coincidence?
True, I have just e-mailed the HTC company to ask for some more info about this... I just can't wait 2 weeks, and I'm getting crazy by the idea of waiting another 8 weeks:
Dear sir/madam,
Today I have received the message that you have postponed the HTC Touch Cruise (the NL and UK version) to week 9.
I wonder if this message is true and what the reason was for this drastic method. I call it drastic, since I have been waiting for this phone since half November (from the press release) and the fact that you already have postponed it before, in the beginning of December.
So could you tell me what the major issues where, and why you need to postpone it? The only complaints I have heard was that the video playback was shocking and that the camera was slow, but that this was a problem with the Qualcomm chip. Will that be fixed with the new generation of HTC Touch Cruises? Or shall I try to buy one of the UK models which are on the market right now? What's your advice on this point, is it worth waiting for?
Thanks in advance, I'm looking forward to your reply.
Regards,
Bart van den Hengel

I'll keep ya up to date, when I get a reply!
I've checked with my supplier (Belgium - http://www.sergevandermaesen.be/) and he confirmed me that my order will be on its way to arrrive Wednesday. So obviously not all suppliers have this issue?
"But don't you think that your second option meets the HTC Kaiser/Cruise production too....??"
yeah thats the irony of it that they are being blamed for both not getting them fast enough to the users and for releasing a product which people feel is not compleat
HTC S**kZ! They don't answered to my e-mail! I'm waiting for 3 weeks.

Ho hum ... I was flamed for this all last week, but I stand by what I said: until the thing is actually in the retailers with known (demonstrated) specs and price, I will put out NO $$$
If my copy gets in Wednesday, I'll be sure to test it in the afternoon/night and let you know, price was € 530, about $ 778.
Maybe the new delay is because of the Qualcomm issue, maybe it's not. First batch of Cruises was/is already out and is being sold in the retail (I got one 2 weeks ago).
Surely interesting to see there is yet another delay, even though it's already being sold. It seems that the shops that are selling the Cruise already are running out of stock quite fast.
Anyway, let's hope the delay is for the good. Maybe an upgraded firmware (dare I say:"Video driver"? .. nahhhh ) or perhaps something else that has to do with Qualcomm and their adventures. Let's just hope it's the last of the delays and more of you people can start and enjoy this new device.

Fantastic little-known feature of Google. Just type "327.65 GBP in USD" (without the double quotes) into Google and it will give you the answer. You can do all sorts of convertions this way, e.g. "29 inches in mm" or "58 cc in pints" (or "58 cc in UK pints" if you want to do it properly ). You can even do simple calculations like "(22 / 7) + 5".
Google currently converts £327.65 to 641.73529 U.S. dollars.

Brilliant. Just cancelled my Expansys order and ordered from Devicewire. The salesperson told me they had sold 200 today and they are going fast.

Have any of you been able to 'track' the shipment ? I can't see where I would find the tracking number ?
I don't see a tracking number and my status just says 'shipped'. Mine is coming tomorrow.
memory card come with it ?
just orderd mine....
i first got to hear of its release today on tracy and matt's blog. its was so sudden everywhere was just delaying it even more. anyway 86 left on devicewire after my order. i just can't belive HTC's press release from Nov 12 said it was launched then.... and only just now are we ordering it.
i hope everyone gets one, i cant wait till MONDAY.
Just ordered mine too for Saturday delivery. However, stock still showing 86, so I don't think it is updating live. Items might be lot fewer in the stock actually than it is showing and we might get the updated stock info in the morning. Hopefully, my order was in time as can't wait any longer ...... my kaiser would be on ebay on Sat .... anyone interested ???

Touch Cruise Now in at Inkino, London
Hi,
Just picked up my HTC Touch Cruise from Inkino on Tottenham Court Road in London. If you are after one I would hurry as I witnessed five being sold whilst I was there. Didn't think it would be this popular.
Mind you, my latest object of desire is one hell of a PDA/Phone (if you do not need a keyboard)

Does GEM-701L exist?

Does this model actually exist, and can it be purchased anywhere? Or does it just exist in marketing materials?
Model tested in june 2015:
http://www.ixbt.com/mobile/huawei-mediapad-x2.shtml
Not yet in sale anywere, as far as I know
Hi Ralph, I too have been looking high and low for this model for use in the UK.
I found this, but it's no good... http://www.amazon.co.uk/Huawei-MediaPad-LTE-Tablet-gold/dp/B00TX5RSPI
I did find (supposedly) a website in UAE that was selling the GEM-701L, but I cannot find it
now.
Found this!: http://forum.xda-developers.com/mediapad-x2/general/gem-701lt-available-huawei-russia-t3207290
Wonder how long until it comes to Europe?
IME, Samsung have launched models simultaneously in Russia and Europe.
Fingers crossed it won't be too long!
Hope this is useful for other frustrated folk who cannot find the GEM-701L!
I purchased my GEM-701L 2 week ago in Hungary, so yes, this is an existing model .

I bought it from a hungarian web store (I live in Hungary), 130000 HUF=420 EUR=477 USD with 1 year factory warranty.
I can't insert yet link, I have not enough posts. www [dot] xoomstore [dot] hu/huawei_mediapad_x2_70_tablet_lte_32_gb_android_50_gold_135601
A french user just bought a 701L from "explosivesport" seller on cdiscount.com. Device was supposed to be 3 Gb ram. But turned out to be 2. So the seller get the item offline. The device was supposed to come from germany
I've also been looking for the international version of the P8Max. The story is the same. Huawei announce the phone, then don't sell it. Very poor. I'm sorry to see learn that Huawei are vapourware merchants..

It seems like the cycle. With the Mate 8 soon and the P9 Max in the offing, looking back by Huawei seems a lower priority. I'm hoping a future offering does offer all GSM US compatibility, like the negligible P8 lite.

Pre order links -EU

Launch day today - has anyone found the pre order link for UK / Europe?
Their customer service opens shortly so I'll enquire there too and post here if/when I find it...
Edit: can anyone find any other EU pre order links?
https://m.alza.co.uk/asus-zenfone-7-pro-black-d6122969.htm?o=1
They have the white one available too
These aren't a UK based company though so may hold off and await one
So I emailed asus about this:
"Hi there,
It has been stated that the zenfone 7 pro is due to launch in Europe today (01/09/2020).
Could you tell me where I can find a link to buy the phone in the UK?"
I got this in response:
"Dear {redacted},
Thank you for contacting ASUS Support and for your interest in our products.
Unfortunately, ASUS and ROG mobile handsets are currently no longer on sale in the UK.
For any further enquiry, please contact the UK PR team at: [email protected]
If you need any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us. "
So I'm not sure what is going on...

Thanks for that.
I reckon I may order it from the Alza website, exciting times!
Just perhaps holding off just in case a better price/sooner available option becomes available... Though can't seem to find any at all!
I'm interested in this phone too and only link I have found is the Alza one. I'm tempted by it but currently on a OnePlus, I'm not sure how big the development community will be in comparison. I'd also like to see if anyone comes up with a decent GCam port first.
Keep us updated on whether you decide to order from Alza and your experience with that site.
will it come out from Wondamobile?

I'm in communications with Arnova8G2, a developer of Gcam and they said "I have the zenfone 6 and it is very good with gcam, zenfone 7 pro already works with gcam 7.3 and more" - so based of this response I'm definitely gonna pre order the Zenfone 7 Pro! I think gcam on it will make it the perfect phone!
As for development, I've reached out on zenfone 6 thread and HavocOS. Which is inspiring that there's some good roms available for that device at least. Though worst case scenario, I'd be happy with rooted stock and gravitybox - which is my current setup for Xperia 1 ii.
Alza says "expected 14th September" but that would also mean shipping from Prague to UK for me. Could be earlier therefore, or later. I'll be preordering soon I reckon.

Hmm unsure. So far I've only seen Alza sell it, nowhere else!
I've ended up just buying a mint condition oneplus 7t pro on ebay for around the same price of this phone. It does what I want and was easy to find.

To be fair, that's a very good shout.
I had the oneplus 7 Pro prior to my current xperia 1 ii. It was a great phone, active rom development, loved the pop up camera and the gcam port made it a pleasure to take snaps with. My only slight gripe with it was the curved screen, I just wasn't a fan of it, but all in all a great phone.
As much as I love the Xperia there's just something not quite right for me about it. I know it's camera possibilities is one of its main features, but I miss the gcam and apparently (after speaking with the dev) hard to get working.
I love the flip camera on the Zenfone and do miss a 90hz display, plus with a likely more active rom community I'm gonna sell this and basically switch at no/little cost.

Ahhh cheers. Does VAT apply to all countries it ships to? Sorry I'm from Australia and don't know how it works over there. I'm thinking of having it shipped to a friend in either UK or Germany and have them ship it to me.

Hmm I presume so, it certainly showed in my pre order invoice.
Perhaps best check with them to confirm.
Good luck!
For French users only,
The Zenfone 7/7 Pro is only available on LDLC.com and official Asus store page. 699€ for the vanilla variant and 799€ for the Pro.

I've just preordered from here, a German site. Let's hope it makes it's way safely to me in the UK!

Any reason why you went with this site over Alza?
It's my girlfriend's birthday next weekend and she wanted a new iPhone. Now I've ordered here that (albeit a bad time as iPhone 12 will be out soon) I feel like I need to upgrade my 3 year old handset! ?
Think I'm settled on getting the ZenFone now, it ticks all the boxes for me.
Also, as no official UK release, I presume it will be shipped with EU charger?

I wished to use PayPal on this occasion and they accepted it.
They mention that they'll include an UK adapter, hopefully they actually will but no biggy if not!

According to their customer service they're due to receive it in the next couple days (9th September).
Will keep you posted. So far excellent customer service.

Awesome! Looking forward to seeing some GCam samples when people start receiving their new handsets.
