what was your first touch phone?

hey guys,
My first touch phone was an iphone (first generation), and back then i hadn't heard of HTC lol.
so, I want to what was your first touch screen phone and give some details also

Mine was an HTC device, the Blue Angel. Details of it are here:- http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel
It was that device that enticed me to join XDA Devs. I owned other non-touch HTC devices before that one.
Now i'm onto android with the HTC Desire and loving it so far

My first was a Samsung F480L....

Mine was a g1... had winmo non touch screen before that

Knackered the screen at the end of its life, went all fuzzy from being pressed against my keys in my pocket....never again...lol

mine was htc touch diamond...purchased right here at xda marketplace...

SE Xperia X1. first 6 months using it was a joy. slowly it broke down and died.

my first touch phone is the HTC Desire (dont laugh)
my previous phone was a Samsung G600 slide/camera phone

First touch screen was Samsung Omnia I900 (really wish i had picked HTC..)
Second, Third ... Samsung Omnia I8910 (thought I would have learnt! - getting a Forth tonight as the other 2 have all had the same firmware issues!)
But, I have *upgraded* to the HTC Touch (Elf 64/128)... Its funny how a 3 year old device beats the newer samsung phone...

Sony Ericsson M600i, going back a fair while now ('06 I think), followed by a TyTN 2

lol
first touchscreen phone was a htc universal.. with a broken mini usb jack had to charge using a external charger.. got annoyyed sold it and bought a htc prophet now hate that too so getting a htc desire

Mine was the Palm phone on Sprint.....waaaay back in 2002.......

Palm Treo 750 =)
it was really special to have a touchscreen phone back then, shame its so mainstream now...

mine qtek 9100 then htc wizard (almost the same) then htc diamond then another diamond but 850 mhz 3g then iphone 3g, samsung omnia, and now an hd2 and a iphone 3gs

Sony ericsson w800

PPC6700 (HTC Apache), but it wasn't my first PPC. That would have been the original Compaq iPAQ from 2000 which was my first color PDA. My first touchscreen device was a Palm III I bought used in 1999.

WTF? LG is selling P500 - Froyo preinstalled phone...
Why this is not noted here?
Some of the LG phones were updated to Froyo some time ago

I included only phones released by major manufacturers and tied to one of the four main U.S. carriers (AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, and Verizon). As mentioned above, I looked at phones released in 2009 and 2010.

I am not trying to defend AT&T here, but it is worth noting that most of their Android phones were launched in Nov/Dec, giving very little time in 2011 to get an upgrade (it can be argued they should have started at 2.2, but that is Motorola's issue, not AT&T's).
Also worth noting is that AT&T has had android phones for less than 1 year and is just getting "up to speed" on the android platform. The Backflip was upgraded from 1.6 to 2.1 in 2010 (which is as high as Moto supports for the Backflip), and while it doesn't count for the article, it should have given AT&T some experience in how to do android upgrades that will help in the future for other upgrades.
If you look at the Android phones that AT&T sold directly (on their website and in their stores) for more than 2 months (3 - Aria, Backflip, & Captivate) and all upgrades (2.1 & 2.2), AT&T is actually at 33%. Since the author did not count the AT&T Nexus 1 (because it was not sold by AT&T), I do not know why the Dell Streak was included either (since it is also not sold by AT&T). The author also included the Dell Aero, which while announced on AT&T, AFAIK, was never actually sold by AT&T.

Am I the only one who wants a good candybar qwerty android?

Like that but GSM for T-Mo?

Blackberry or a slider is about all you'll get on T-Mobile.

Ok - how about even AT&T? It is just nuts that there is no demand for this I feel like. It would help move people from BB.

I believe the Verizon Droid Pro can be unlocked for use on AT&T? I know it has a GSM radio in there somewhere!
My ultimate ideal is the Dell Venue Pro with Android. I'll keep dreaming

I looked into that - the last time I checked using it on AT&T was a no-go. Could have changed since then.
I would absolutely love one of these styles to show up, rocking a largish screen and decent internals with a stock build of Gingerbread.

That GP looks nice. Probably would be a much better choice than a Moto.

The dell venue pro is the best phone you'll get for t-mobile, fortunately for me and unfortunately for you its not running android.

Both Galaxy Pro and Facebook phone are underpowered, tiny/crappy screens. We need a REAL phone in those formats. The one for Sprint is perfect format.

you should wait for motorola pro then, but its probably expensive. http://gsmarena.com/motorola_pro-3781.php

lol its basically same phone (but with bigger internal memory, and bit smaller) than the one in your original post yet its still crappy for you. if you want a better screen just go full touch. otherwise the phone would be too expensive to market, not to mention too large.

Goodbye Atrix 2 community !

Updated : 24 Mar. 2013
Hi guys here, I'm back !
My "old" but like new shape Atrix 2 was in dry cabinet for 8 months. Now it has been replaced with good mother board that came from broken screen one.

---------------------------------------------------
Been Atrix 2's user for 5 months. It's a very good phone with many advantages over other that I've ever used : rock build with manly body shape, runs fast and fast even at stock Rom, battery so good right out of the box and phone always be cool during of heavy using...
But unlucky for me, just a moment that I could not be patient anymore and made huge mistake and my phone gone to the hell forever
Now I switched to Google Nexus S with very cheap price for ~$150 and flash cooked Rom every ... hour ! OMG, I so wonder if an obsolete hardware like it can runs very fast and smooth with ICS or JB, even with all procedures in touch CWM : flashing, booting, backup and restoring etc... so fast.
I just need about 3 mins done for a every new Rom (including flashing + booting). So surprise !
Thanks all of you guys here. I've had lot of happy time here. Good luck to all !
Be happy with our Atrix 2 ! Goodbye !

So long, and enjoy the new phone! Feel free to stop in and say hello from time to time, specially after Jim finally unlocks that pesky bootloader!

Bump .................................

What new phone should i get?

So i kind of fell out of the phone loop after my One X was stolen and had to use my POS Samsung Infuse. My taxes are coming in and i want to get a new phone again. I been debating on the Nexus 4 because the specs look pretty beefy and the reviews have been good, plus i like the ascetic to it. I'm just leery about it since LG doesn't have the greatest track record on phone since the G2x was a HUGE disappointment to me and the HTC G1 and G2 where my favorite all time phones. So in a nutshell, what phone would you suggest and why (also i don't want a note to, i don't like the size of it. 4.7-4.8 is perfectly fine for me.) But thanks in advance.

N4. G2x wasn't a nexus so a lot of stuff wasn't open source. That's why it was a mess. I still miss my g2x tho
JellyB-TSM v16 / Apex Pro

It was a decent phone but it was way too buggy even if you flashed a new rom like Weapon. But like in said the reviews look great the only discerning thing is LG's track record and I don't want to wait weeks for it it. Plus I'm not sure if any decent phones are coming out in Q1 or Q2. I'm not going to get the S4 just because of how fast they come out and people jump ship to the new flagship Galaxy S phone.

Try Sony xperia s
DONT FORGET TO HIT THANKS.......

R: What new phone should i get?
I'm actually thinking of upgrade to an xperia Z. It will be worldwide released soon. It gas awsome specs falso if for some a bit old(the processor) but it is dust proof and waterproof. And last but notte least Sony already released his kernel sources, so there will be really good developing!!!
