Hi everybody.
My Tytn II sais the sim card is not there anymore, though it is!
So I may decide to buy a new one instead of messing with hardware spare parts etc.
Which phone do you suggest?
I am quite interested in the HD7 or the Desire Z... but I may consider even a non-HTC device if you suggest a suitable one!
Thank you for your usual helpfulness!
Cheers,
gp
After a lot of reasearch I chose the desire and am not dissapointed

Thanks for your opinion.
I think I'll go for the Desire HD or Samsung Nexus S (which has Android 2.3 and an AMOLED screen) ...though my love for HTC will win, I guess!
I had a HTC TyTN II myself and I was very happy with it and eventually replaced it with a HTC Touch Pro2 and found that even better.
I've recently just changed again and I'm now using the HTC Desire Z and if you want a hardware keyboard (as I do) then I can't recommend it enough! It's a bit weird at first that it doesn't tilt (as both the TyTN II and Touch Pro2 do), but you get used to it and I haven't looked back!
Thank you, Xanth.
I too love my TyTN II, but I am afraid that hardware replacing is not worth: it's quite of an "old" device even if it still works perfectly.
I think the hw keyboard is pretty useful but it also makes the device more fragile and the Desire Z's seems to be really fragile or at least really carefulness-consuming! What's your opinion on this?
Hey guys I want the Samsung keypad that came with the Droid Charge or Galaxy S2, but I want it working on my Nexus S. Tried both the apk files and they did not install, anyone make a port of the keypad? Looks pretty good.

Good Evening,
I'm looking for a replacement to my HTC Touch Pro 2 (Windows Mobile 6.5).
What's a similar phone with Touch + Keyboard, preferably running Android?
HTC still seems to be the only phone site which allows you to compare based on hardware features :\
Please recommend some smartphones to me!
Thank you,
Alec Taylor
FYI: I want Android primarily because of its g++ support... I can compile on the phone. So feel free to suggest one with a different OS if I can still compile my C++ on it :]
Hey,
I can recommend the HTC Desire Z or G2 if you get it from t-mobile. It's a wonderfull phone with a lot of nice roms out there.
The keyboard is nice (I even like it more than the keyboars of my G1 now...).
The only flaw is the battery... But well that's life with most smart phones.

If you're state side... the MyTouch 4g Slide:
http://mytouch.t-mobile.com/4g-slide
Otherwise the HTC Desire Z (G2 on T-mobile) is a great device, although it has a single core processor.
The processors and memory on the myTouch 4G Slide look awesome!
However, I'm in Australia and also, I don't need a good camera...
You used to have a TP2; I can touch type on mine. Have you seen any with a similar keyboard?
The HTC Desire Z looks quite good, although I remember seeing someone else's and having a play around... it was a little small (the keyboard) compared to TP2's.
conizius: By G1 do you mean TP2 and by G2 do you mean Desire Z?
Motorola Droid 3, if you need a keyboard
Holy crap!
That Droid 3 looks AWESOME! (thinnest QWERTY keyboard, 8MP Camera, 1GhZ Dual-Core, Gingerbread and 16GB on-board memory)
!!!
:]
Fadika!
droid 3 is useless in australia, its a CDMA phone for US only (and a very few other random countries)

Do you like HTC Chacha.?
Nope, I don't press the Like button on that one
But seriously...
I'm looking for a non-blackberry type one, one where you turn and slide to type :]
HTC Desire Z is great but a little outdated.
Research
I spent hours doing research as i'm also looking for an answer on this one.
This is what i have shortlisted:
Motorola Cliq 2
Motorola Droid 3
Samsung Galaxy 551 Samsung I5510, Samsung Callisto
Samsung Epic 4G / Galaxy
Samsung SGH-T589 Gravity SMART / Gravity Touch 2
HTC Speedy: Sprint EVO Shift 4G
HTC Desire Z
HTC Merge HTC Lexikon, HTC ADR6325
T-Mobile G2 Mytouch slide 3G
T-Mobile myTouch2
T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide (HTC Doubleshot)
LG C550 Optimus Chat
ZTE Amigo
They all have a keyboard. The only other major considerations for me are battery life and size/weight.
My TP2 is dying fast so i need to buy something now!
Good luck.
I want a new Android phone with a single cpu and slightly smaller package:
1. Nexus S seems to pack a 4" screen into not such a big package
2. Desire S is the nicest construction and nice and compact but the screen is a bit dim
3. Motorola anyone ?
Anyone had the first two, or all three, (or any other recommendations) and can comment ?
thanks

I would say get the Nexus S. I don't think the Desire S is worth it with the Desire HD and Z out (but the HD isn't exactly a "small package".)
Stay away from Motorola. Motoblur will make you want to pull your hair out and their designs and build quality are subpar (Aside from the OG Droid).

I have a Nexus S and love it. It is a no-nonsense phone that is simple in operation and packs in the latest user tech...FFC, NFC, Gyroscope etc. The feel and build quality is very good. But I did have to exchange one out for a common fault in the display.
Think of the Nexus S as Google's version of an iPhone. I also have a few HTC products. And though they are fine and well made, the Nexus seems to excel on design and simplicity.
I don't like the Defy so I wouldn't consider it. A Droid, I would consider.
Of the 3 you list, the Nexus gets my vote. But that's because I already have plenty of HTC phones. It might be different if I didn't. Nevertheless, I love having the FFC, NFC and gyro, whether or not I use them.
Nexus S. Definitely Nexus S. I have a Defy and am very happy with it (I immediately flashed it to remove Blur of course), but if you have the money for a Nexus, go for it. Played with it again today at a store. Man is that thing sleek.
Though if smallness is important to you... the Defy is the smallest. It really makes good use of the real estate, it's pretty much all display. Flash it with Cyanogen and you're golden.
if you are the type of person who wants official updates right away, nexus s is your type of phone

do you'll think they will continue to update it when the new nexus comes out ?
e.g. do they still update the HTC Nexus ?

+1 HTC DESIRE S All the way
great phone, great feel, right size, can be rooted and S-OFF'd
(But then again, I'm biased!)
Nexus Prime, if you can wait.
One other thing to consider is the Nexus S is extremely easy to root. The only issue I had with mine was getting the drivers installed for it in Vista. After that the rooting process was simple.
I have the brother (SGS) and I prefer Nexus S instead any HTC.
Hey!
I ask you as the users of the nexus.. is it worth to add 80$ and get nexus instead the ONE?
(I have the ONE)
Most defiantly YES!! Recently purchased a Nexus 5, tried out my dads HTC ONE for a few days and much prefer stock 4.4.2 compared to the ONE's Sence 5 overlay
Tough one. I'm a huge fan of Sense 5 and some of the features are brilliant. However I have never regretted moving to Vanilla Android!
