[Q] WP7 Phones on O2 - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Where are they? I'm due an upgrade with O2 in a few months and having a look on their website I can only see the Lumia 800 as the only WP7 handset available. What gives?

What country?

Sorry, the UK (I dind't know O2 operated as O2 elsewhere, I thought they were telefonica).

WM5 3G handsets are official now!

Fellows,
Good news!!! HTC Europe website has posted/announced the 3G WM5 handsets - HTC TyTN (a.k.a. HTC Hermes/XDA Trion/MDA Vario II/iMate JasJam/Qtek 9600) and HTC MTeoR (a.k.a. HTC Breeze/Qtek 8600). For details, please visit the HTC Europe website:
http://europe.htc.com/
Cheers!
Of course the Europeans get this before the States, so ridiculous, so usual... :roll:
So for those who really understand these things... once it is unlocked, this will work in the US on Cingular right? Because this looks like it is going to make my 8125 look like a horse drawn buggy...

Its only because we (Europeans) are not out looking for weapons of mass disstraction and thus have more time to play with our new toys.

I am not agree this . HTC was made all PPC in Taiwan , and Dopod sell HTC PPC in Asia , now HTC own Dopod , HTC had own company in European that's why you had new PPC early than others , we will see in the future is Asia or European get faster, :lol:
The states always got later than European because US carriers ony two carriers had some of HTC PDA and in states we dont 3G ,why we can get 3G phone early than European or Asia ? :?
WM5 3G
[/b]Seems Asia and Europe will get the new 3G at the same time. Financial news in Taiwan this morning reported 2 models from HTC which looks the same as those being circulated in Europe. To0 bad the US is somewhat lagging in releases like this. Maybe madmonkey can get some imports once it's out
think eu is a bit more mobil crazed then us are
at least last year (or was it the year before)
more sms's was sendt in my country then in us
not talking pr. person or anything.

Any word on Vodafone WM6 update yet?

Does anybody have (serious and reliable) proof that a vodafone wm6 update is coming?
I've talked with some vodafone tech people today and the told me they havent tested wm6 internally...
Haven't even tested?? Oh God....
LOLOL - By Tech people you mean Customer Services?
The ROM is in test and will be available somepoint towards the end of this month.
You might find that new devices start shipping with it before its ready for download.
I spoke to Vodfone UK yesterday and they said they were not releasing this as far as their tech people were concerned, I then spoke to Palm UK who also said the same! In fact the Vodafone tech people told me to go and download the ROM from Here!!
did they mention anything about the unbranded ROM? Can I get the contact details for Palm UK as I couldn't seem to find it on their website.

This smells like **** for Voda users. Solution: ROW ROM (If exists)

They basically said that they will not be releasing anything, the guy I spoke to had said that nothing had been announced internally, but I found articles that say it had.
Contact Details 0207 867 0108
Vodafone in UK?
Apparently Vodafone in NZ is going to release WM6 according to this post:

It messed up his Treo, but they apparently flashed it to WM6 for him.

Release Date HTC x7510 & Networks UK?

Hi all,
Anyone know or guesstimate for UK release for the upcoming X7510. Any ideas on which UK networks it will be released on. T-mobile I presume is a pretty safe bet on ideas on Vodafone etc?
Thanks for taking the time to read this and look forward to any info.

i heard it was going to be on orange...
id say youre right about t-mobile, but iw willl probe be silver [urgh !]
vodafone, i doubt it, they dont have many ppc's, and o2, the same, but then again, they could surprise us.
Rory
o2 were the first in this country with a windows PDA phone namely the original XDA (also made by HTC) so you never know they might get them yet.
Hi Tom,
At the moment Vodafone don't have any details regarding the release of the X7510.
I have saved this threads URL so if I do get any information in relation to the phone I will let you know.
Sorry I couldn't give you any more information.

AT&T "Tilt II" Touch Pro / Raphael Discussion

Wish us ATT users can know if it's going to be picked up or the x1 :\.
north american version has passed your ffc fcc? federal communication ...

99% sure this device will be on AT&T. Some prominent member informed me that they have a AT&T touch pro ROM

Well I don't know whether to be happy or said :S and i hope the X1 wont outperform it.
I can only assume, AT&T will need to have their own "uniquely named" device and not the vanilla Touch Pro the rest of the world will enjoy. This in itself will add 6 months to any official release date of the Raphael in North America. I hope I'm wrong.
I will snoop around on my side and report anything to this thread with any positive news.
Lol, I would say they're that bad , however i can imagine them releasing it sometimes in Q4 (October-ish?) or early Q1 of next year.
I thought CDMA version is coming out first for Verizon. or was it for Sprint... I read it somewhere in Engadget or BGR.
this will be called tilt II for at&t. this is a rumor i heard from a friend from at&t wireless side.
Why does the US seem to get this stuff last? I blame it on the carrier cartel that refuses to adopt the mobile phone industry models the rest of the world has.
If the only experience with HTC i had was my wizard, I'd be all over the Raphael. I paid 588USD for the tilt (off-contract) and get the shaft from them. Now, I'm up for a phone upgrade, and I'd really, really like to get my hands on this device, but I don't know if I trust them anymore.
Still LOOKS kickass, though.

Isn't the Raphael/ Touch Pro missing the GSM 850 freq? I thought AT&T uses GSM 850/1900.
Seems like it's made to be a T-mo device. (GSM 900/1800)

That hos nothing to do with it. Verizon, Tmobile, and all the US carriers can pick up the phone. Whether another carrier decides to pick it up or not doesn't mean that ATT wont.

I will prove you wrong in a couple of days.
By your analysis that means the T-Mobile in the USA would have the MDA Vario III which they don't.

there is a rumor that the missing band can be enabled by a radio firmware upgrade!

I would be VERY surprised if the Raph couldnt be sorted out like this, remember the Hermes didnt have necessary bands for telstra in AU which was eventually sorted with a hack to allow the necessary frequency to be used.
Details details people, if AT&T were going to use it i imagine the bands situation would be trivial, im sure they are going to carry it.

Why would they call it a "Tilt"? The Touch Pro's screen doesn't tilt like the Kaiser does it?

You and I can hope but I'm 98% sure you're right. Trends point to AT&T releasing this sometime next year, as to not disturb the X1 and without the front facing cam. Right now it seems like Sprint is going to get this first as they're getting the Diamond sometime in September.
OK well lets just say in a matter of days we shall see if AT&T WILL be carrying the Raphael..............or not.

[Q] Data sense availability

Hey guys,
Just got the HTC Windows Phone 8X, coming from an HTC Evo 3D. Huge improvement speed wise. Still getting used to WP8.
Anyway, anyone knows what's the availability on different carries for data sense? I know it's available for Verizon, but anyone knows when it's going to be released for other carries? I'm with Bell in Canada.

Can only speak for Germany - so here we have O² only, who have it already installed on their branded devices!

You sure? I tried a few O2 branded Lumias and couldn't find it anywhere I'm on FONIC so if O2 really has it, I hope all O2's MVNO will eventually support it as well.

hmm, looks like not all of the MVNOs have it already!
Can only tell, what I've heard in the German forums! Seems only the main O2 provider have it ready at the time!
