I can't help you either. I just want to note that T-Mobile SDA II is NOT a Tornado. You mean the US T-Mobile SDA.

Yeah you can say that... actually the one you are talking about is the phone with antenna hump ...but tmo sda II is the same... http://www.infosyncworld.com/reviews/n/6323.html just without the hump...
Searched Ebay no's selling it
Well, I'm sure it doesn't have the same hardware, because I've bricked my USA T-Mobile SDA when uploaded the T-Mobile SDA-II ROM.
Luckily I was able to sell the "paperweight" as spare parts, for €60.
Anyway, I hope that you'll find what you're looking for.
cool. AFAIK T-mobile SDA (humped version) din't have wi-fi
No, it has wifi. It's a full Tornado!

1-) I've been using T-mobile MDA vario for 4 months. I love it. Now, I want to buy the same phone for my sister. However, I am not sure which one to buy. Cingular 8125 or T-Mobile Mda vario. As far as I know they are pretty much the same phones, however, there might be some littlie difference that I don't know. If anyone know what the differences are please help me to choose. (differences not including the appearences of the phones)
2-) I am also not sure why Mda costs a little bit more than the 8125.(compared prices at ebay) I would appreciate if someone could explain me this point too.
ok, the reason the 8125 cost less then the MDA is because theres the 8525 out now for cingular, therefore people dont want the old stuff, they want the new stuff...whereas the MDA's successor hasnt come out in the US so MDA is the only one of its kind...now as for the differences besides the body, the device is CID and SIM locked to Cingular, but you can change that buy unlocking it...umm no other differences, besides that MDA and 8125 come in G3 and G4...

Thanks for the reply. I am not sure about the last thing you said. DO you say that MDA always comes in G3 and the 8125 comes with G4?
If not, then is there any way to determine if the phone is G3 or G4 when buying it? I mean I can find out if it is G3 or G4 if I use and see the phone, however, when buying it online I don't have an opportunity to look at IPL and SPL.
I personally would like G3, since there much less problems with it when flashing a ROM.
im saying that both devices can come in both G4 or G3...a G4 device will show an IPL/SPL similar to 2.21.0001 and a G3 will show something similar to 2.21 (notice the G3 doesn't have the trailing .0001!) and u can see this when u do a softreset on the device, the numbers will show up in the top left in red....

Yes, but if I am buying the device online, I can't check if it is G3 or G4 before I buy it, right?
im afraid not, unless you are getting it from eBay or something, you can ask the seller to check for you

Why do we have two threads started by you on this? grrr. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1197867#post1197867

I don't know if you would call my opinion more of looks as it is "functionality". But you have a MDA, so i think you could relate:
The keyboard on the MDA is by far more efficient to use than the 8125 (sorry 8125 owners). The buttons are separated and aren't merged together. The tactile buttons on the face of the device are more convenient, because they are easily accessible with the fingers. Unlike the 8125 which are small and on the four corners, the MDA has larger buttons, great for those who have small or big fingers
However, software/roms will operate the same on both devices, as roms are built for either devices.
I owned the MDA before, and I recently purchased the NEW 8525. The 8525 very much reminds me of the 8125 keyboard, as all the keyboard buttons are touching (really annoying). Also, there is no quotation key (") on the keyboard which i use during text messages when i'm quoting someone. Personally, if they could hyrbidize the MDA keyboard with the speed of the 8525 I would be one happy guy!
(please read above carefully, do not mix my comments about the 8125 with 8525)
Cingular Refurbish G3
fyi... i just got a cingular 8125 (refurbished version) off the website. it is the G3 version. not sure if they are all that way though....
Ive had a MDA w/tmobile and loved it but it just wore out and failed. I had it up to 260 mhz . I here there are other htc phones that are faster, I am with Tmobile so I need sim support. Am looking at MDA's now and there are many for sale.
I wanted to get some imput before I buy so I dont make a mistake if there is somthing better, I had no problems flashing
Thanks

ATT Tilts/HTC Kaiser - 400MHz (the best phone in my opinion, and dutty just made it better)
HTC Touch Dual - 400MHz (used it for a few days, I love it, but no WiFi)
There are so many out there now, but those two is my favorite. Its only 39.99 to unlock them.
HTC Hermes is what I was using. Great phone and its 400Mhz. Unlocking these should be free following instructions here on the forums.
Ebay also has a bunch, look for softbank xo1ht, dopod 838 pro, htc hermes, etc.
Edit: I believe the Hermes is the MDA II if I am not mistaken... aka t-mobile wing. You might want to call t-mobile and tell them your mda broke and you want to switch.

No it's the Wizard, Thanks for the reply. I am looking for 400mhz but the prices are $250.00 and up I might have to stick with T-Mob Wizard that only 204MHZ stock. But I will look for a bit.

No, its not. Hermes is not the Wizard. Like I say, its a good phone and runs at 400.

If you are out of contract you could sign up with Sprint. They have a deal 500 minutes, unlimited text, unlimited data. 30 bucks a month. HTC titan (like wizard but faster/more memory/smaller) is like 250 after rebates.

Thanks, I'm stuck for about a year.
You can always put your MDA up on eBay or Craigslist, and put that into your new phone.
But T-Mobile doesn't have powerful enough Windows Mobile devices as ATT

Hi, no proplems at all with tmob (but I'm not in fl); I use gprs edge net access a lot. My phone is full of all kinds of apps thanks to the fast & stable TNT rom. Check out the Hermes WM6 section for it & many other great cooked roms! Have Fun!
Hello everyone,
I am new to the phone tweaking world while I am an IT technician, I going to visit friends in the U.S and I am planning to buy an AT&T HTC FUZE.
As some of you probably know the prices in Europe are kind of outrageous so I want to buy it from there.
My question to anyone who can help is whether I can flash the AT&T software and put the native HTC on, or at least do something for the software that can make it fully function with my network (Cosmote) in Greece.
Thank you in advance for the help,
Yes assuming ur willing to buy the phone full price and then have a friend with ATT get the unlock code for you, or buy an unlock code. You do not need to reflash the radio because the Fuze has quadband EDGE and triband HSDPA unlike the European Touch Pro. You can however flash a custom ROM which will work with your carrier. (The stock ROM will work too but in my opinion, the ATT one is slow)
The fuze is the htc touch pro aka diamond which is what you will find it under in the forum
here is a link to the rom section if you are interested in flashing a new rom

but before flashing you may want to check here ...it a guide to flashing your first rom

EDIT- you may also want to sim unlock if you are going on a different network.....

Hey there
a friend's dad is in Alabama... and I was wondering if anyone knows where he would be able to buy a Touch HD and a Touch Pro WITHOUT a plan.. i just want the devices.
I went to the HTC website and all shops are service provider shops.. it's really urgent as he's staying there for only 2 more days... and i don't know how this works in the US.. with the plans and all
thanks in advance
Hd isn't sold in the US, You can by a touch Pro outright though from a service Provider.
EDIT: Are you looking for the gsm version or cdma?
GSM.. for israel.
the HD isn't sold in the US AT ALL? or only in AT&T.. T-Mobile.. and so forth
No HD in the U.S.

Nope we didn't get the HD at all, not a single service provider has one. You can get a Touch Pro from AT&T by paying $500 to buy it without a contract, but you'd have to unlock it.
att is gsm, i don't think tmobile has it yet (i know they are getting it though)
...and just about every other major carrier in the US is cdma

Yup your right, AT&T is currently the only GSM carrier in the U.S. that does offer the TP and like you stated above, all the others are CDMA.
You might want to check it out though, The AT$T Touch Pro is the Fuze. I think AT$T had HTC do some subtle changes to the TP to make it a Fuze. Ask NATF, he has a Fuze.
wait, what about a diamond with an SD card?

Yeah, AT&T got the keyboard layout changed(for the better IMO, but each to their own) but other than that i think everything else is the same.

That's what I did, my old man lives in the states and I got him to get a fuze on his contract and now use it here in Australia (it looks a little stupid with the AT&T logo on the front though )

Diamond with SD (400Mhz processor, but who cares)
I have an UNLOCKED HTC 4350 (I Think it's aslo called the herald)
I have WM6 On It And I Want 6.1.
How Do I Do This Since My Phone Isnt Listed
What Phone Is Out There That Is JUST Like This One?
I Was Thinking Either The Mogul, Wing, Or The Tilt Idk
Its Unlocked So If I Choose One Of These Phones, Like The Sprint Mogul, It Will Install Sprint TV, When It Comes On It Will Say Sprint And All That.
But I'm WITH AT&T
Hopefully Someone Can Help Me
Thanks In Advance
You have a Herald if you're using it with AT&T.
