hi guys
i m using xda IIi and want to change it
help me to choose a good PPC
1) imate Jamin
2)kjam
and which brand is good in window mobiles
Thanks

gsmarena.com is a food place to look for a new phone, has an extensive search function that can narrow thigns down for you by functionality.

If you need a hardware keyboard then go for Rhodium, the best device with keyboard.
If not there are several options on the market, I would say Leo.
Let us know what you´ve got
Regarding which brand: HTC of course!!

looking for info

hi, iv just registered to this site cos im looking for some info, i have an xda11i and i love it but its time for upgrade, O2 have mentioned about a couple of new pda's coming called the 'JET' and 'ICE' but i cant find any info on them anywhere!! can someone please point me in a good direction!!
thankyou
Here's a list of known HTC PDAs with the names given by the various providers: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/
e.g. HTC Prophet is sold as Orange SPV M600, XDA Neo, I-Mate Jamin, etc, etc.
Maybe we'll get more info on them soon.
i looked thru the list, but cudnt find these 2 new ones. iv been offered a wizard, or a universal (xda mini s, or a xda exec) does anyone have one of these and what do u think of them?? rememebering of course i already have an xda11i or Alpine as its called!! i wanted an atom but it doesnt seem to be coming out anytime soon in the uk!!
The Atom is not made by HTC but we won't hold that against it. :lol: :wink:
I know three people with Wizards and they are all pleased with them.
The Universal is a bit on the big side if you ask me. :shock:

O2 Stealth

Hi folks, I am new here. Jst bought a O2 stealth and need to know wat platform (HTC...etc) that it is running on. Also, if there is any AD2P cabs that is found here to use my Motorola headphones... :O
Thanks in Advance.
O2 XDA Stealth is made by Gigabyte not by HTC. Therefore its platform is not on currently this site.
That's right... But let's hope more info can be made available here for the stealth, as it was for atom (also not manufactured by HTC)...
Thanks folks!
is it possible that you can extract the answering machine software on O2 Stealth for us?

how do you find the stealth?? a good device.. can you give more details please...
Definitely much more stable than its siblings (atom and exec) as I had made some comparison with my friend's unit. So far so good as I have not enounter serious problems with it except that the number pad is a bit too soft. When dialing a number or messaging using T9, you will definitely miss a letter or number.
Another thing is on the communication manager. If you turn on and off bluetooth or wireless LAN too often, it will slow down the overall performance. other than these two, no further complains. I believe o2 will release a rom upgrade soon to rectify these little bugs here and there.
Hello i'm newbie. I have problem with O2 stealth...
1. How to use slide keypad without T9 menu
2. Why performance O2 stealth worst than O2 Atom (not exec)
3. Do anyone have upgrade rom for O2 Stealth....
Thanks...
I need XDA Stealth ROM update. Can you tell me where I can download it? I tried to download from O2 web but it says no soft update needed but i need to reflash my phone, thanks

Wait, what is the name of this forum site? xda-developers, not HTC developers. It should be supported on this site.

Our portal page has the following welcome message:
Welcome to xda-developers.com
This site is about certain PDA-phones, made by a secretive firm called HTC in Taiwan. Their makers named them 'Wallaby', 'Himalaya', 'Blue Angel', 'Wizard' and 'TyTN', but almost nobody knows them by those names. The mobile provider O2 sells them under the brand-name 'XDA', and that's what we had in our hands first. They're also known as Qtek, MDA, SX-56, Hermes and many, many other names.
Since we develop software for it, we need information, and nobody seemed eager or ready to give us what we needed. So we 'reverse-engineered' the devices, found a lot of information, and shared it with the world. But as our site grew we realised that lots of ordinary users were also suffering from a lack of support. They started using the xda-developers forum to communicate and before long the forum was as much a user forum as it was a developer forum.
We hope that you will enjoy this site and find it as useful as we do. We encourage you to donate or otherwise support this site. Of course absolutely all proceeds from donations will benefit this community.
If you look closely you will also see that not all phones made by HTC have a place on this forum simply because there isn't room to give every phone a forum.
Best regards,

Memory Help !!
Hey people .. My stealth is perfectly for each n everything. I am just facing one problem. My Main Memory is continuously reducing. It reduces by like .2mb in every 5 minutes. I have no idea y this is happening. Can anyone telme how to stop this ?? u can also reply on [email protected]
praneet0007,
I think maybe there is a software causing you the problem. My Stealth got no problem like yours. Maybe you can do a hard reset and install the software one by one to find out which one is causing you the problem.
P/S My first post is replied to your first post. LOL
thnx
hey thnx anyways .. i gave the fone a restart .. now its not goin down continously .. most of d stays at the same storage .. howeva sumtimes it reduces by .1 or .2mb ... but i dont wanna hard reset it coz of 2 tings ... i dont wanna lose my contacts n msgs .. contacts i wont if i do by outlook n stuff .. but i dont wanna install outlook on my comp .. n without that rite now .. i cannot bakup my contacts .. n msgs i nyways cannot .... the 2nd ting is .. im not able 2 register my fone on the web yet .. it says 'ur IMEI is available 7 days after ur purchase' .. its already bin 11 days now .. ill contact o2 mumbai on fone 4 this issue in a cuple of days .. thnx 4 ur help anyways ..
Problem
I have a problem with my new device, O2 XDA Stealth Pocket Pc. It was working just fine for 4 days now, but today for some unknown reason the java program has been lost. I cant find it anywhere. Can anyone help me pls?
praneet0007,
The main memory you mention above is the RAM or ROM? If RAM, that's normal. If ROM, it can be many reason, example like you use the pocket ie to online, the cache, history, etc can reduce the memory.
I didn't use Outlook either, I used Jeyo Mobile Companion to backup all my contact and messages. Or you can use the backup application that comes with the handset.
For the register stuff, not really sure what's wrong, you better check with O2 for that.
pploutarchou,
Accidently deleted or it just disappear like that? Try looking in the program files see whether it still there or not.
ching4ever
I dont remember deleting it myself neither i find it in the program files. Either way i dont know how i can delete it from the program files. Is there anywhere i can download it again?

No Yaar. I did not find any home plugin there...
The HTC Home screen will work on a JAQ. I think the version from the touch is what you need.

Suggestionz please!

Hi Reader,
As a request, Id like to ask for a favour in helping me get a new phone.
Been using a HP IPAQ rw6828 for a yr now, and quite frankly didnt disliked it much.Need to change to a WM6.. have had a enough of all the Nokias.
Used the Black N95 for abt a day and got rid of it.
Kaiser TYTN II/ Blackberry Curve or anyone you guys could suggest.
Apologies if this is the wrong forum but didnt found any other forum best suited for this.
Cheerz
I suggest the Tilt....
Thx
Hi Bruv!
1st up thx for the reply!!...I kinda like the black one too... I guess tilt and Tytn II are same... js the weight thing kinda puit me off....
i noe this is XDA PDA forum, but Blackberries are outta liking??
Anyhow... I see you guys breaking a lotta code n making new ROMS... id suppose HTC TYTNII can be tested for a lot of ROMS and softwares.. can it?
tytnII and tilt are identical except for the difference that the tytnII has the front camera while att has cleverly removed that from the tilt.
As far as upgrades go there are a ton of options available here. All depends on what you want and which route you want to go on. Before doing any upgrades though i highly recommend that your read the kaiser wiki.
If you are going to be flashing new roms than don't forget to flash hardspl first to your device; again this is all explained in kaiser wiki so please do read it if you plan on going that far with device.
As far as suggestion i definitely recommend the tilt. It is a great phone/pda/micro laptop and has the capabilities to do alot of wonderful things.
enjoy,
peace
sire
Cheerz bro!...
Will go on wid TyTN II
XDA fo sure roks!

New PDA

Hi guys,
Well, I am in the market for a pda. My boss has gotten approval for my department to get pda's. I have had desktops, laptops, and an iPhone, but I have no experience in this area. Can anyone give me advice on a good pda. Most of my work involves MS Excel and Word. Need support for pdf, and Access if possible. Need easy to use interface for Excel. Plenty of memory, and decent speed. Any help appreciated.
Thanks,
Chris

Just google: HTC HD, HTC G1, Touch Pro, Omnia, Xperia
This ones are good choices to have in mind
Good luck
Well firstly, do you need a pda or a pda/phone?
Thanks a lot for the advice. I found the HTC Touch Cruise at http://www.pressdigital.com.au/phones-classic-pdas-accessories/touch-cruise-professional-bundle-p-5789.html. Looks perfect. I primarily need the pda, since I have an iPhone for personal use. But, the video conferencing is a plus. Anyone have any experience with this model?
Thanks again,
Chris
Most of the info you need can be found in the wiki HERE & you can read about the phone in the Polaris forum...
I have the Touch Cruise (Polaris). Its a good compromise between an iPhone and a PDA, but it is a compromise. Seeing that you have an iPhone already, and that you want to edit Office documents, maybe you should look into something with a built in keyboard and a larger screen.
I'd be lying if I told you that dealing with onscreen keyboards on a 2.8" screen is not annoying when you are looking at a spreadsheet. The HTC Athena x7501 is larger, but more much useable for that purpose. It can also do video calls. (However, if you are located in the US, no carrier supports video calling at this time.)
Here's a review link http://www.mobiletechreview.com/HTC-Advantage-X7510.htm
Thanks very much Sonus and Reaper. Great information. Good point about the keyboard. I found a one similar that I am considering - http://www.pressdigital.com.au/phones-classic-pdas-accessories/tytn-hsdpa-phone-bundle-p-5776.html. Anyone have any experience with this one?
Thanks very much,
Chris
The TyTn II is a good business phone phone. Its basically an HTC Touch Cruise with a keyboard, and it is therefore thicker too. Same screen size (2.8"), but the TyTn II is less finger friendly due to its recessed screen, and it doesn't have FM radio like the Touch Cruise. You might want to check out the TyTn II forum or specific device forums for their suggestions also. HTC also released a couple of new phones, browse over to www.htc.com to check them out.
P.S. My suggestion is still the HTC Athena series (x7500, x7501, or x7510 listed from oldest to newest) as long as you don't plan on bringing it everywhere with you and will more than likely keeping it in a brief case vs. in your pants pocket most of the time.
Ohh, and re-reading your first post, the in-built conduit for syncronizing access databases with a PC was done away with the inception of Windows Mobile 6. Furthermore, except for in really old PDAs (devices running Pocket CE 2000 or older), Pocket Access is not available, so you need to go third party for database software. So I would also do some googling and see what the software makers of Windows Mobile database software have to say about syncing database stuff on a WM6 or WM6.1 phone.
Really appreciate your suggestions. I decided to go with the TyTN II. As far as the Access, this is not really a big issue. Access databases are too large anyway when the same data can be used in Excel.
Thanks,
Chris
