just courious to know how many other users have this device? can't be just me can it??
i chose this because of the screen size (all the better for surfing with)
if there are enough of us we could request the mods add us a section so can start to 'develop' specifically for this device
add your responces folks
poll added for Panda owners -do we want our own thread? yes or no

I was just looking at this right now. I currently have an o2 XDA IIs, and was wondering if this was the upgrade/replacement for it?
Have you compared it to IIs at all? I'd be interested to know if it's worth getting (IIs colour scheme is better IMO =P)
I don't have a Panda yet, but am looking at them for the reasons you mentioned. If you read through the About XDA Developers sub forum in the general forum, it has been already asked for, but asking again can't hurt.

hi steve, have checked and responded to all of the threads so i know there are users out there. have had mine for about 4 months now and am impressed. the large screen makes it easy to use and most applications work fine. the only issue i have is that is wm5 only at the mo, does limit the operation a bit as 6 would be faster. still can't have it all
hi angerfist7777,
my understanding is that the argon is the updates version of the 2/2i. info and specs can be foung on gsmarena.
i find that it is a good device the only limit is no 3g but using opera mini this is not an issue, also the wifi works well?
Thats good to hear. I think there are enough people here with them to get a forum going. Then that should generate enough interest to get some development going.

I'm using the BA at the moment, same sie screen, and slide out keyboard. I like it, it's a bit bulky, and I'm not too fond of the screen style, size, love it, but I'd prefer a harder screen to it, maybe like the kind of screen on the iPhone etc. but anyway.
the BA has had enough development for several WM6 roms going. The reason I asked if it was the upgrade to the BA was maybe those roms could be used on it with a little tweaking. I don't know enought o do so myself, but am interested.
anyone know if there is a radio upgrade avaliable?

so far only the stock rom and radio as far as I can find out.
we need more users to push either this or one of the other threads to generate more interest
can then hope to push for a sub forum and start to develop
I have an HTC P6300 and I love it! When a device specific forum section?

Hello there, I'm planning to replace my HTC Universal after great 3 years of working! and I'm still pleased with it to be honest!
My new PPC should has a keyboard, so my question is simple! is the HTC Raphael the good choice to go with?
I know there is the SE X1 as another choice, but I think I liked the HTC more
What do you think?
so guyz...no replys at all?
I really like my Raphael and as far as i worked with it, i had no problems and would recommend it.
There are (of course) some bugs, but they can be fixed with progs out of this forum. So if u are not afraid of spending some time in setting up ur raphael this could be ur new favourite.
The keyboard is pretty good (for my opinion), the buttons are small, but i don't have a problem hitting the right one, even though i got thicker fingers.
If u have some specific questions just ask, i'll see if i can answer.
hi there
having used the universal and then using a hermes as a day-to-day device and now the raphael i can only say that im glad i bought one!
the size of the device is simply astonishing for what has been crammed into it
what do you primarily use your device for?
the universal is a well seasoned device with much support and it appears the raphael is heading that way too!
Thanx guyz,
No problem at all with spending time fixing bugz cause really I like these stuff and I enjoy searching and fixing...that's what kept me from replacing my Universal
good to hear that about the keyboard, cause I really need it and I think by time I should be used to it...
yup, the size is a great thing compared to the huge universal for sure I'm now a medical resident...so I will use it to have some books around me all the time beside its internet & phone cababilities...
there is nothin specific now in my mind to ask, but I got a positive impression in general and I think I'm gonna buy it soon
I'll get back to you!
Guys, I've been wondering for quite some time if there is a PPC out there that "completely satisfies" the needs of various users. Therefore, if it isn't too much trouble, would you mind listing:
1) Key features you would like in a PPC
2) Any PPCs currently in the market (or in the soon-to-be market, i.e. Touch Pro 2) that fit the bill?
**Note: I don't necessarilly want you to limit yourself to WinMo phones; Symbian, BlackBerry, Android, Palm, and even Apple (yes I know...) phones are OK.
For example, I own a Touch Pro and would prefer:
- Larger screen
- Capacitive screen
- More responsiveness (most likely due to a faster processor)
- Thinner (to complement the larger screen to make it easier to type)
Anyways, thanks for taking a look and especially if you contribute.
Really, no one is willing to help my research?
So far, I've only had one Voter. Though appreciated, I'm afraid it's simply not enough.
C'mon guys, what have you got to lose? You'll be expressing your opinion on a matter which I'm sure is on most people's minds here at the forum as well as helping out a fellow member.
Maybe this thread was simply overlooked. Therefore, I feel a BUMP is in order.
Two votes now!
you need a catagory 'non of the above' for us WM fans!
btw, there are so many polls around here the last year...maybe some info in them for your research.

Windows Mobile is a given considering the forum. If I had that option, nearly 100% of the votes would be WinMo. I just wanted to know what alternatives you guys like AND WHY <= still need info.
Could you direct me to any "current" polls that may be related to this thread?
I first started with the Palm505...got hooked. Then switched to windows mobile 2003- it sucked. Then got me a Tungsten TX-it was better...but then found my dream pda...Tungsten C... there is where I found great apps and used it everyday! Now, I have the HTC Mogul running windows mobile 6.1.... love it.... but once in a while I find myself missing some of Palm's apps... not available on WM6.
I bought my wife a treo 750p... she catches me once in a while admiring the buttons and apps...
BB Storm FTW!!!!

So the main reason you like your PPCs is the Apps, right?

Here's a current discussion with a lot of scoop and why info: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=501708
is it possible to add a new group of phones on index? i would really like to see toshiba phones such as g810 there...
thanks!
This is an HTC Forum.. you could use "Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking" ROOM in "General Discussion": a lot of people do that
D'rath
Although I probably won't own a Toshiba, I also think that it would be a good idea to add devices to this forum such as the G01. This is the best windows mobile site, and I think that there are people out there willing to develop and start a community around the new Toshiba phones. They all just need a place to stay
HTC only
As stated several times before...
This is an HTC devices only forum and no section will be added for any non HTC device, this is the point of view of the owners of the site wich I support.
"htc only" heh... Just not true dude!!! Browse the forum!!!

I absolutely agree!!! Plus on that list are non HTC phones like HP iPaqs and SE Xperia... So why not just add ASUS and Toshiba? Simple as that! It would contribute a lot, cause searching for non listed phones is just messy right now!!!
Anyway to prevent further ranting, these were my two cents... Over and out...
Cheers
they're not branded by HTC but manufactured by HTC
it's been discussed long and many times ago, Browse the forum!!!
Cheese and Cheers
Forum BIG, me small
The question of all time with the wonderment as to whom might answer. With all the phones on the Market subservient the one we wait for;
What is The Phone we are waiting for, the one we want & need?
True there are many out there to do what ever you want but all are limited in their own ways, Carriers included.
So the Grand question is does anyone yet know how to put in words an answer to this reply?
Thank You.
The HTC Leo/HD2 with both WM and Android on it. This is the phone .
I'm sure you can tell this is the phone I've waited for (if it gets here) but all get upgrades (#2) what will this Leo become -Next-?
Don't get me wrong I've waited & wanted this phone for a LONG TIME.
Thanks for repling.
I've got no idea how the Leo could be made any better, at least not now.
Of course, even faster processors, even higher resolution for the camera and tinier chips for an even thinner phone will be developed in the future, but the Leo pretty much delivers everything that's possible at the moment.
How much I agree with you. But do you think it will get here?
Here You go, someone else may be listening, 'The Dragon' by HTC. This may be the answer we're searching for. Found this at Engadget but XDA already knows this.
If u don't need a keyboard, then the LEO is it (for now)! See it's active thread for further info...
Leo+hardware kb would pretty much be king for me... Until then, the TP2 the company pays for will cover me.
Believe me I've been following the Leo throughout so many areas that if the Virtual is sufficient (as well as I type) then something new in that regard is worth chasing, true hands on will tell. Yet what other phone is equal to the Leo with A KB? Not many I would think. How about you?
@godefroi, I too am used to kb & touch but I require a wi/fi & a large screen, questioning your reply do you think there is a phone on the horizon with these articles together (w/a screen as large as the Leo & its operating system)? This would detour me away from the Leo. (when it gets here).

Oh yea, Translate it w/google.
I thought I'd leave you all with the ROM comparisons that I did when I was actively using my Universal. Half way through I upgraded to 128 MB, so this is reflected in some of the memory readings.
These are my own personal findings - I tested programs on the ROMs that I was interested in. Perhaps I'm opening a can of worms here, but I hope you find it useful.
Thanks Jonny!
Great information, will add to the FAQ
How do you feel with your new Rhodium?
My new rhodium is great - I'm not looking back! (Oops, perhaps I shouldn't have posted that here!). I know it doesn't run WP7, but there is certainly life in it yet (and I have a lot of bought programs which run on WM6.5 only, so I'm quite happy).
I enjoyed too my Rhodium!
And moved to Leo was a big shock for me coming from a real keyboard line devices...
I expect to go back to keyboard devices soon as I find a similar spec HTC device
Jonny could You paste this file with .xls extention? I don't have Office 2007 and i cannot get into it
Thx in advance

Ok, updated first post to include excel 2003 version Rom Compare3.xls
very useful information!thanks
Great
OMG...
You HAVE used your Uni buddy!
And I thought I was a serious user...still using though...nobody in my town knows what a 128 MB Uni means to me...will just keep it till I grow old.
I'm waiting for a really good WP7 piece...checked one HD7...but the software glithces.. or shortcomings are too many....let's see.
Hey kalya! nice to see you around
Perhaps would be wise to wait for Touch Pro 7

Great job!! Obrigado!
what next?
I don't know Orb...which would be my WP7 handset.
As always , win mo are dull,very down to earth,mature looking gadgets...they will never be fun and I accept that....
Just waiting for a great hardware & the new OS's perfect synchronisation.
Uni was it...we got maximum from it...but my country's mobile network never caught up with the handset.
Just waiting for it...hoping...HTC would almost deliver and I know XDA members will make it perfect.
Yes it´s true...
I have played with WP7 on my Leo and decided to go back to WM/Android as it´s to damn closed platform it seems like apple...
If WM is really dying which I doubt I think I go to Android instead...
Please let me know what you finally decide to upgrade
Cheers,
Maybe Galaxy Tab if nothing good comes out in the near future.
We win mo users don't want a new OS or high config devices as much we need really new --FRESH-- apps,but maybe the new apps reqire both the things..OS+new hardware.
Otherwise I stll have some of the handsets in my sig(and some nokia ones also)
