Difference between "normal" and T7272 version? - Touch Pro, Fuze General

I want to buy a TP, but stumbled across the 2 "versions".
Can anyone explain the difference between the "normal" and the T7272 version to me?
Thanks in advance.

Yes i would like to know this , as i thought i had a normal touch pro , but after checking , i've got a T7272

I thought T7272 was just the model number of the Touch Pro.

Exactly! There is not difference at all. T7272 is the simfree "normal" Touch Pro

What do you mean by simfree? Because windows identifies my 3 (Australia) Touch Pro as a T7272 and it has a simcard. Unless you mean sim-unlocked...

I think this is what they meant. I have this model number on my touch pro as well.

Yes, simfree = unlocked.

Different after all?
Hi everyone.
It seems that there IS something different between the "normal" and the "t7272", there's a 40$ difference...

Anyone has an idea?

Different vendors and profit margins perhaps?

They both are being sold by Integron Technologies.
I really can't find any HW or functionality differences though

hmmm... maybe the keyboard layout? but that doesn't deserve a 40$ difference.
I think the guys that sells these phones just dropped their price, and put up another ad for it.

I've got a T7272 TP as well... it came from Singapore and is sim unlocked.

i can assure you it's the same hardware, but maybe different software or some soft customizations depending on the operator/country of launch.

The HTC Touch Pro work with ATT's 3G?

I almost bought an HTC Touch Pro today from a vendor and the guy who was selling it said AT&T's 3G would work on it, that theres a program to install that allows it? now to me this doesn't make sense.. Is it possible to get 3G here in the states on AT&T's network with the HTC Touch Pro? Is there a program? flashing it? please let me know. thanks

Don't buy...getting hustled (though who cares about 3G...this phone rocks)

raphael = Pro ???

is Raphael same as Pro ?
Yes. Raphael was the internal code name for what was eventually introduced as the Touch Pro.
Tnx buddy .

Huh? Sprint is the carrier, Touch Pro is the phone, aka Raphael. ATT is the carrier, Fuze is their model, aka Raphael.

Getting HTC Fuze in Europe?

I am thinking of ordering AT&T unlocked version of htc touch pro. I am little confused. There are so many version of htc touch pro? I am looking for cheapest version and I think it's unlocked HTC fuze. Now, is there a way to remove all those AT&T shortcuts and get a normal(original) HTC touch pro phone?
The ATT version has a slightly different keyboard on it to the other varients (numbers along the top are removed and are accessed by a FN key - replaced by symbols)
I'm looking at doing a similar thing to get a Touch Pro, ATT seems the cheapest way of getting one but from memory it's about $50 more with other carriers that use the normal keyboard.
Yes, that is the case with keyboard but I don't mind really. I've found that I can latter install other rom and get original HTC touch pro, something like this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=444784
@hidden_hunter, is there any other version that will work with GSM providers worldwide and has original HTC touch pro keyboard?
You will want to get the HTC Touch Pro T7272 (European Version) over the AT&T Fuze because there is a descrepency inbetween the US (Fuze) 3G Bands and the European (Touch Pro T7272) 3G Bands.
I am thinking about selling mt Touch Pro as mentioned in these thread replies: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=466685
If you're in Australia I think ATT's 3G bands are the same as Telstra's so it should work no issues, others might know more (I'm with Virgin mobile who since being totally bought out by optus seem to be becoming worse and worse value) So you would need to check if the frequencies are compatabile (make sure you don't buy a CDMA version for instance)
I live in Bosnia. Would Fuze work here?
Check your PM. I sent you details.

buying Blackstone in the US

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.

What?!?!? Is there a different version of the Diamond that supports SD cards?!?!

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 )

AT&T Tilt 2 - Codename?

When AT&T releases their version of the Touch Pro 2 (Tilt 2, supposedly), what will be it's codename (Ex. Touch Pro 2: Rhodium)

It will be the Tilt 2 aka Rhodium. Just like the the Tilt is aka Kaiser.
So, when I search for custom "Tilt 2" roms, I will search for "Rodium" and just filter out the ones specific to the Tilt 2?

You currently own what is the Sprint version of AT&T's Tilt 2, correct?
Why do you say piece of crap? Joke or serious? If serious, why, as I am looking to purchase one from AT&T and would like to know your complaints! Thanks

I own the unlocked Euro version. and i was half joking about the ATT version cause of what they changed on it, namly the keyboard and now they arnt putting the new 3.5mm headphone jack on it. I guess if your use to ATT and their keyboard layout it wont be a big deal, but i wanted my numbers on the top row like a normal keyboard.
Im also looking into getting a rom (from here) to put on it cause it runs, alittle slower than i think it should with stock software. Cant imagine all the crap ATT will put on their version.
