☆Toshiba TG01 to TG02 for free☆ Just install spb mobile shell.
You will have Toshiba TG02 by just adding Spb Mobile shell interface.
They both have :-
Same processor 1ghz Snapdragon, same camera 3.2 Mega Pixel, Same screen size 4.1Inch.
TG01 is currently £159.99 (with 8 gig mem card) on orange and is the fastest phone available today. With a superb screen size of 4.1Inch that is a joy to watch movies on. Full desktop support for flash video websites like YouTube and others. Giving you Youtube as if you were using a desktop pc full YouTube with all the search options and comments. Just like it is on your pc or laptop.
3D gaming that is as smooth as silk and Microsoft Marketplace for apps and games + thousands of free apps and games on the net. For your money get the TG01 unless the capacitive screen is enough for an expensive upgrade. Then just install Spb Mobile Shell.
Yeah, and get loads of bugs with it too!, like poor phone calls, feeling slower than it should feel, and so on...
Who knows, maybe the TG02 will end up being like this as well anyways!!
Yes those bugs are still present. TG02 just basically had a face lift of TG01 with Spb Mobile Shell. Thisw phone is basically identical tech.
Then why should anyone bother to get the TG02!!!
Stupid Toshiba...
this version of mobile shell is out since 8 weeks^^
The TG02 run´s WM 6.5.3, thats the different to the TG01...
and mobile shell ähm sucks
the main difference seems to be the capacitive display vs the resistive one
Capacitive display vs the resistive one is the main upgrade to the TG02. That is correct. £159 compared to £489 for capacitive and mobile shell is just way to expensive because most all other specs are the same. Still it is not 100% confirmed it is capacitive screen. K01 would be the best upgrade due to the hardware qwerty Keyboard. But expect to be stung on price for it.
TG01 with ps3 bluetooth keyboard is the way to go for most cost effective way of doing things. The ps3 keypad works great for fpsx and other games/apps.
i don't understand the sense of this topic . spb mobile shell runs on htc p3600, or htc HD..that doesn't mean that it will be tg02 . you cannot upgrade for example the capacitiv screen, which is intro TG02.
Well...
The TG02 does have capacitive screen. 100% confirmed
And they also made it smaller by taking some of the plastic frame.
looks cool but I will wait for the extreme drop in price after they will find out that unhappy costumers is much stronger than any advertising campaign they will make.
Its not that the TG01 is so bad.but on the first problem that 90% of the users complained about (Call Quality) they found out Toshiba support stinks!
Maybe it will become a good bargain for poor students like me =)
Its good to hear about the screen. I know there is loads on the call quality just do the upgrade from the Toshiba site and this has cured the call problems, well on mine at least.
I still dont think I would go for a TG02. We shall all see as time goes by..
@gingerchristopher.... your sig is a little bit OOD - we certaily DO have custom ROMs now .... have a look under the ROM development section !
But your forgetting one thing....
Capacitive screen on the TG01 is superior.

@Wen, think you are muddling devices / screens ! TG01 = 'R' and TG02 = 'C'. Also whether Resistive or Capacitive is very much a mater of personal preference.... I absolutely favour 'R' because of the fine resolution, stylus and especially handwriting support which 'C' doesn't do. Some folk of course hanker after the lure of 'multi-touch' and huge 'finger-friendly' everything. But i'ts all a matter of taste, style and usage needs. I just hope that the manufacturers continue to recognise and support BOTH camps in future.
Yes I also like resistive screen more. Just lack of multi touch that`s the problem.
To Rival the HD2..
Had the TG01 from the first few weeks of release (before getting the HD2), yes it had some rather irritating issues, BUT two things resolve them and turn it into the great phone it should have been (to allow it to rank as an alternative to the HD2) and that is:
1)The 6.5 Update
2) SPB Shell 3.5
After that no worries!
Superb Phone. .
I was lucky to buy Toshiba TG01 for £130. Since then I have installed loads of ROMs and softwares. . I personally it is an awesome phone except two things:- bad battery life and less ROM. Apart from that it has a superb screen big, bright and clear and you cant miss to mention the connectivity options. I can connect my HDD, external mouse, keyboard, memory stick, etc. Which other phones gives all this with a Snapdragon processor. . Though Im desperately waiting for Android to be ported to Toshiba. Also use HTC Hero and simply love that too, for other reasons. .

This is probably a really stupid question - but would it be easily possible to "upgrade" the tilt's screen to VGA? Like with the screen from this phone http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/08/e-tens-glofiish-m800-a-better-x800-with-qwerty/
??
The screens look almost the same size if not the same size.... would the screen "plug" be the same.. (is it "standard" for windows mobile phones like VGA is?) and would the OS pickup the new screen?
Sexy thought - having a screen like that on this Tilt.
I'm sure if the measurements are right and you have tons of know-how, it's possible. My best advice would be to hit a mobile site which is tech-y related and hit up some of their guys to try it out.
If you find the answer, let me know. Replacement screens for most PDA's are fairly cheap on eBay.
J
Here's a couple of reasons why putting a VGA screen in the Tilt is a bad idea:
1) VGA screens consume more power on average than QVGA -- it's likely the reason why we don't see many VGA screen phones today -- and the ones that do exist aren't quad band.
2) The processor has to push 4x the number of pixels in VGA which means it needs a fairly beefy processor and a takes corresponding hit on battery life.
(this may also tie into reason 1)
3) VGA support in Windows Media has historically been half-assed, to the point where some view it as a failed experiment.
As a previous Toshiba e800 owner, I can tell you firsthand that VGA caused more problems than it solved. Microsoft decided that smoother fonts and icons were a priority over screen real estate, so while everything looked prettier it didn't really do anything for productivity. There were a few exceptions, like being able to view Exel sheets in VGA but not with Pocket Exel (only Clearvue apps allowed you to display, but not edit, in true VGA -- which was completely goofy). Then along came a couple of brilliant guys who found a way to unlock true VGA mode for everything which was great but caused a number of incompatabilies with older software that was designed when all PocketPC screens were QVGA. Switching between faux-VGA and true-VGA required a soft reset which for some reason took *minutes* in WM2003SE. Playing games was a pain. Trust me.
VGA devices that came after that point were only marginally better. The Loox 720 used a faster processor but it had no graphics accelerator, which really dragged down the performance. The Axim X50V and X51V had graphics acceleration but with a unique Intel chip that had very little support and documentation. HP's offering was decent but had a nonstandard touch d-pad. The HTC Universal tried to strike a balance between power consumption and I'm not sure if it really succeeded in that respect. There was an Asus VGA model that didn't seem to go anywhere, and a very tasty looking Acer model (n311) that either never saw the light of day or was only released in a country whose name I cannot pronounce nor spell.
So if you do decide to go the VGA route in the Tilt:
The Tilt/Kaiser roms likely do not have native VGA support, meaning that you will need to tweak or rewrite the display drivers. I don't think it would be difficult to get the Tilt to display in 'pixel doubled' mode but the results will likely look less than stellar. Support for the ATI acceleration in the Kaiser is either broken or nonexistant at the moment, and no documentation is available. That is a huge blow to getting anything VGA displaying at a decent speed.
One last reality check: Most of the previous VGA devices used screens that were between 3.5 and 4 inches. The Kaiser screen is 2.8 inches. You might see a modest improvement in picture, but it's likely your eyes can't resolve the majority of the extra pixels. (keep in mind that the average user views a PDA screen from about 2 feet away).
in short, if you REALLY must have VGA, go buy a Glofish (and say bye to HSDPA and quadband)
I retract my previous statements. On second thought, it would really suck to have a Tilt with a screen with the quality of, say, a PSP's screen. I couldn't imagine being forced to watch a video file on such a device.
J
What about the eten glofish m800.... which has come out recently.... with triband UMTS/Quad Band GSm and one of the best GPS chipsets available?
Sorry if this is completly out of place here but I just have to ask!
I am getting tired of all the problems with HTC devices, and I am considering buying another device just to be able to do what I want!
Let´s face it, I have had many different HTC devices, and there is always a problem somewhere! Either it´s the video driver or gps lag or whatever...
Now, I am not ready to give up on my TP just yet, and that is mainly becouse of this great forum. So I am keeping my TP to see if things get better in the future!
But I still want to be able to use my GPS software properly, and would also like to be able to watch movies without having to bring another set of devices with me where ever I go!
I was looking at the new Touch HD, but it seems that it has video issues as well!
So now I was thinking about the Samsung Omnia!
All the reviews I read so far seems promising, the device is very fast and is even DivX certified!
My question is, have you used or do you own a Samsung Omnia?
If yes, then what is your opinion about it? Is it really as good as I think it is or is it just another HTC like device with many buggs?
Will I be able to watch my videos smoothly or not?
Will I be able to use the gps without lag?
How does it compare to TP when it comes to other programs and games?
How is the screen compared to TP, does it feal much bigger or not?
Or maybe you can suggest another device that meets my demands, I am open for sugestion!
I know these are alot of questions, but I hope that some of you can help me out here! I am really frustrated that I have to bring several different devices with me to be able to do everything that my expencive TP was supposed to be able to do!
Thanks to all of you in advance!
my 2 cents...
list out ur priorities in what you want and then choose from there...
ie
video = get iphone
GSP = get nokia
.
.
.
for what u have stated, i'd personally get the HD over the Omina as its more sexy but its a bit bigger which is a turn off. If ur choices are limited to HD or Omina then I'd choose HD as I would think the battery would be better and lets face it... all phone are crap if the battery sucks...

The fact the HD is bigger then Omnia is no issue for me, and I also think that HD is the better looking device!
However I read in the HD forum that HD still has problems with video playback, now if that is true it´s a complete turn off for me!
A negative, Omnia won't have world 3G (850/1900 + 2100).

I think it is problem with hardware becouse they say that there is no smooth playback even with CP without converting!
Maybe another device is better then Omnia?
If Omnia is not as good, maybe you all can suggest me another device that will fit my needs?
Thanks!
I am responsible for the mobile devices in our company. I have a T-Mobile Vario IV (HTC Touch Pro) and a T-Mobile Vario III (HTC Kaiser) for my own use. I have ordered and configured 2 Samsung Omnia, 3 Vario IV, 3 Compact IV (HTC Diamond) and the best after all is the Vario IV.
The Omnia software feels not very well. The TF3D ist much more comfortable als feels really smooth.
If you can live without the g-sensor, get the Xperia X1 and put HD manilla on it.

I tought the X1 had a much smaller screen, and less RAM?
Bigger, higher res screen than touch pro, better battery too. And 3.5mm headphones. If only it had been available in Australia a month ago (still isn't). That said, I like my touch pro. The GPS isn't so bad it's not useful and it's a big improvement on my old Hermes...
I was trying to decide between the Omnia and the Pro myself. I ended up keeping my Touch Pro - largely because of the cost difference between identical plans with Sprint and Verizon.
Video will definitely run smoothly on the Omnia because it has a faster processor, and is not running a VGA screen. The screen is much lower resolution and nonstandard though it's bigger. That said, quality TV Out will be limited to files it's native player can output. Otherwise, you're only getting the resolution of the screen, 400 x 240 I think.
On the Touch Pro, I've gotten good performance with the files I normally play using either Coreplayer or Divx Player. I've heard bad reviews about unconverted files using TV Out - but am waiting for a cable to try myself.
When you're comparing screens - the Touch Pro is higher resolution but the Omnia is bigger. I can see positives and negatives to both in viewing webpages or images. But for video play and output the Omnia should be faster.
By the way, I should add that though the Touch HD has a bigger, 800 x 480 screen - video play should be slower/choppier than the Touch pro because it has the same processor. The same processor would have to move even more pixels, which is already causing slow performance with the Raphael's VGA screen.
The only possibility for better performance with a VGA (or higher) screen, is a faster processor or better integrated video drivers.
If I were you, I wouldn't sink a lot of money into a samsung phone. IMO they are generally not very good. That being said, the Omnia is obviously not a standard samsung.
pros
-it has innovative interface
-bigger screen
-good with media
cons
-lower res screen (is it wqvga? i think it is)
-NO STYLUS SLOT (huge turnoff)
no qwerty (we are comparing to touch pro here)
this being said, I feel that there is little the omnia can do that the pro can't. with coreplayer, video playback is flawless for me, even when i am viewing a 700mb divx encoded movie
I purchased omnia!
Okey, so I decided to buy the Omnia even if most of you voted against it!
Boy am I glad I did that!
I have spent almost this whole day testing the device, the first thing I tested was to copy a 1.2 gb Xvid movie to it, it played out of the box with it´s built in touch player so I did not even have to install CorePlayer! And do I even have to mention that it did not lag/stutter even once watching the whole movie, with alot of action scenes!
Then I installed TomTom 7 and BeeLine GPS and went out for a walk!
Testing BeelineGPS while walking was a whole different experience then with my Touch Pro, the compas view rotated and adjusted it´s position with every step I took! (With Touch Pro it only updated every 10 to 20 meters!) What a difference!
TomTom performed just as well, it followed my car exactly even in high speed!
And it is alot snappier then my Touch Pro even tho it has less ram! Rotating screen is an instant and overall performance is way better then the TP!
Bare in mind that I have installed custom speedy rom in my TP, and the Omnia is all original! Now imagine what this device can do with a custom rom!
I dont know about you, but I can just say that I dont believe I made a misstake with this device, but I have to keep testing it a bit more, just had it one day so far!

As I said, I bought the omnia yesterday, and today after two days of pretty heavy use, I still have 40% battery left!
So the batter is in fact better then in my tp which did not even last for one full day!

I live in Sweden so I am not familiar with the networks in us, but this is what I see in my Omnia settings: Automatic, GSM 900/1800, GSM 850/1900 and WCDMA!
I should point out that this is a 3G device and it works great here in sweden, it also has HSDPA (Hight speed internet!)
Hope this helps!
I love my Omnia, but especially with this ROM: http://www.modaco.com/content/i900-...illa2d-with-flashlite-3-1-and-uc-dthj9-m2d03/
But I can get a great deal on a Fuze through work and I'm tempted to pick one up as well... this last month or so that I've had the Omnia is the first time since the Blue Angel came out that I haven't had an HTC device
Hello WM community !
To cut long story short, I got very interested in WM and now I am considering to buy Xperia, but after reading a lot in this forum I got my doubts about it.
A lot people says that WM is way ahead comparing to symbian and yeah, for example Xperia's cpu and ram size is almost twice (or even more) as big as any other symbian device. But what are they good for if Xperia can hardly play good quality clips smoothly and run game emulators at decent speed ( I mean snes ,gba emulator with sound or even FPSCE) ? The old, practically unchanged S60 platform can run those things ( and even .avi files) without problems (well except FPSCE of course ). As you probably all know, few symbian phones even are able to run Q3 at a very very decent speed. So my question is, why Xperia is worth paying around 800 $ ? Just for super comfy office tools? Sexy design? Nice touch screen? Why ?
I don't want to judge anything, I just want to find arguments why I should buy the Xperia ? And I need your help guys
Thanks in advance
P.S. As you noticed, I want to use phone as a multimedia entertainment device, especially for movies.
hi,
i understand your concerns.. i am sorry i do not watch shows on it..
but my own experiences,
PRO:the screen is sharp. 3 inch is good.. touch pro is only 2.8 and its heavier.
the CPU to me seems ok. In fact youtube has a vs touch pro video out there.. x1 is faster when switching landscape.
the touch screen is good in response for me. most task can be used one hand finger.
Keyboard is good.. you can type pretty fast on it.
as of all WM devices, you need to customize it before it becomes better.. i am speed dialers .. launchers... cool.
battery life for above average usage is 24hours. (am told other devices is shorter )
CON:
the camera button is difficult to press
you may get the rattle "add on" (ie a rattle sound when shaked )
price is a little on the upside.. well this is suppose to be their flagship premium phone.
for my subjective opinion, WM, especially touch HD is the best for me, that will be my future device,. hehe,.
easy software upgrade, ROM cooking, etc,.
i agree with -G-, my next device will be the touch HD, the wait to march will be ohhh soooo long
touch HD is good.. however if poster needs a h/w keyboard.. then touch HD is out..

lol, yeah,.
The Touch HD is a media orientated device (what with it having things like the 3.5mm headphone jack) and in CorePlayer (or even TCPMP) the HD can play full size AVI movies pretty much perfectly!
The X1 has very similar hardware, except for the keyboard, but that may be used in game emulators. Also, I'm sure that emulators would run okay (they can run on my Prophet, with a 200MHz processor, and 64MB of RAM!)
I've seen both (but not used them, only reviews).
The Xperia is much better looking than the Touch Pro IMHO. It is smaller, lighter, and just cooler. They both should perform the same, but I think the Pro has the better UI
thanks for commenting.
I will probably buy it, but still I can find the arguments to justify the price....
anyway, thanks again.
Just to clarify, the title is not from me ...
Have you seen the TG01??
I knew Tosh were doing some WM devices, but nothing really fancy so far.
This one sounds like the best ever...
Design wise, it looks quite sexy. 9.9mm thin and 4.1" WVGA screen!!
UI wise, need to see more.... looks a bit weird those stripey stuffs.
There're already a lot of articles on the web, just google "Toshiba TG01".
http://www.electricpig.co.uk/2009/0...led-faster-slimmer-better-screen-than-iphone/
http://www.t3.com/news/toshiba-stuns-with-the-new-tg01-touchscreen-mobile-phone?=38013
It's got Flash support, so I guess it is IEM6... but more, apparently you can watch DivX and play HD games!
With the Qualcomm SnapDragon at 1GHz?
Any of you guys, more specs?
full flash support at last available on a mobile with a decent screen !!!
Then tomorrow there will be iPhone, Touch HD and Toshiba TG01 killer...
ohhh I want this home screen, can anyone make it happen?
I just saw this on "The Register" and ran here to try and tell everyone.
http://www.reghardware.co.uk/2009/02/03/toshiba_tg01/
Based on the spec, it seems a GORGEOUS phone.
My future phone. I'm still a little disappointed to know that that will come out this summer ...
I needs me that phone!
It better come with US 3g support.

Fair enough on the keyboard and OS as you can't please everyone.
I reckon there would be enough overlap between this Tosh handset and the HTC phones to make it worthwhile. The SE X1 isn't marketed as HTC but we know it's *built* by them... so it's got it's own section at the bottom of the forum.
this is one awesome looking & powerful device...
but need to see the full specs and price once released...
No one mentioned anything about battery life.
I wonder if they just made those specs???
See it in action.
So there is no stylus? Not dual SIM? Screen res. 65k only? 512mb onboard memory? But all in all everything is great. Slim, BIG and fast. Monster!
What about sliding keyboard? But I guess it won't be that slim if there's a keyboard. If only I can...I will definitely buy this WinMo device now.
If only there will ever be a device with a big screen (at least 3,5 inch), a NORMAL D-Pad and a sliding qwerty keyboard which is fast and nice looking...
Something like the HTC Universal (but with a sliding keyboard) with -2009- specs...
I HATE "touchsensitive" keys, trackballs and CRAPPY D-Pads like the one on the Touch Pro/Diamond.
I guess "style" isn´t everything
Oh man....
Oh I LIKE that interface!
HTC has TouchFlo, Xperia has Panels, this Tosh has Stripes.

the specs are very intresting but i think touch HD is the tallest phone i will be confortable with....this one is even taller...

Add Toshi's record of bad support and buggy OS... That is, I wouldn't hold my breath. Hope they've learnt from their past mistakes.
I haven't readlly checked out the specs, just one q:
- does it have a capacitive screen?
- can it record calls?
- does it have a quality (!) camera?
(-does it have quality stereo speakers with stereo widening?)

Even a crappy D-pad is better than nothing at all (see the Touch HD), which, practically, makes gaming / emu running almost impossible.

No problem
the TG series is looking better all the time!!
Good prospectives
This is only a prototype
OMG!!!! This phone has to be insanely huge!!! I mean the HD is pretty big, but the Tosh is soo much bigger than it!!! Sure its slim, but I wouldnt be surprised if it dint fit into my pocket because of its insane wideness and height!

Personally, I'm waiting for the TG02 - it'll be equipped with capacitive screen. (Currently, I only browse the Web on the iPhone 3G and have completely dumped Windows Mobile in this respect because of the capacitive screen.)
I agree with you having had an iPhone some time ago.

Hmm, i thought the K01 was the one with a capacitive screen . . . and the TG02 was the one with a water resistant design . . . I may be wrong though.

According to prelim specs on PDAdb.net, the TG02 & KL01 are transflective TFT LCD...
Hi,
Excellent Vids. Thanks.
Compared to the HD, it looks huge. But looking at the figures, its like a very slim XDA Universal (and I used to carry that in my pocket).
Can you reach/tap all the screen areas just one handed ?
Would be great if you have a chance to do more testing of camera (inc. video). this looks like the main week point to me (and size). I'm sure they could have got away with fitting an LED with that camera...
Also, how about some pocketable tests. Slip into trouser pocket/Jeans Pocket, Shirt Pocket etc.
Some shots of rear with cover off and battery including hpw slim would be great (easy to carry a spare in the wallet?)
Finally, how useable is the touch screen. Some videos show it very unresponsive. Is that just because they are using the fingerpads rather than finger tips or is there a sensitivity issue with the screen ?
Thanks again (even if you can't answer all the questions...)
By the way, I found the iPhone screen resolution too limited for web browsing.

Sorry but i had to give it back in short time
With one hand is very difficult to manage it.
The camera is enough good, above all the photos, videos aren't too bad.
In my back pocket jeans it juts for a 1 cm.
Touchscreen is normal but we have to remember thet it was a prototype and it will surely improve.
