Hi,
I'm finally selling my MDA Pro (eBay item 300008341567 if anyones interested...) and looking for a replacement. To which I'd like to ask if any of you have any knowledge of these phones....
I like the idea of the TV tuner, which the G-Smart has, but can't find anywhere in the UK to get it, does anyone have any opinions on this phone, know where I can get one, or know whether there are any other phones with TV Tuner built in. Also, does this phone have GPS? Some reviews I read say yes, some no. (It's the black one I'm after, not the orange square one.)
The other phone is the Mio A701, purely as it's one of the only WM5 phones I can see that are quite fast and has built in GPS...
Does anyone know of anything else on the market now, or soon, that has a TV Tuner and/or GPS built in, that is a WM5 touch screen, pocket PC phone?
Cheers!!
Hello, i will never recomend you to buy any Gigabyte / i-teq phone before you read all my comments and also from others about this phone at pocketpcdubai.com , then you will know what kind of crap it is and what kind of support you will get, NONE.

What problems did you have with the phone? Software issues, Hardware issues, or both?

Sorry, I know you said comments at pocketpcdubai.com... but I can't get to that site, throws up not found errors
You might want to take a look at ETEN G500 (no tuner but pretty fast and has GPS) also the HP 6900 which has everything except a descent screen.
Any way in my opinion, most phones with GPS today are lacking in other features (usually WiFi) and it's better to get a BT GPS and a good
phone.

I know having 'all in one' device is nice but you always have to settle.

Hi,
I never really had any problems with the Universal, it's a complicated phone so will never run truely perfect. Like most things, you look for a fault, you'll find one...
The only things I could mention that were annoying, is it would sometimes take a while to ring and notify me of incoming calls, even with patches and fixes that others produced.

Thank's for your input!
I know what you mean about the "all in one" but it's just getting to a stage where my belt is starting to wear out with all the extras that I want to carry in my pockets!
I've seen that EOPS SDIO Tuner, but have only been able to find a foreign supplier for them, do you know if there's anywhere in the UK as yet? Think I'd sooner have the GPS onboard, and get a TV Tuner as an extra.
dont pay too much for a SDIO tv tuner here they already set the date to when they stop broadcasting analog tv alltogether
Hi every one.
Here you can read all my bad opinions on it:

Hello
Hi User22.
I was about 98% decided to go in for iteq x bond or gsmart as they hv come officially in India...but I read yr posts at pocketpcdubai and was horrified..though there are not much comments made on the handset, I thought what u hv posted shd be atleast 60% correct and hence decided to keep the Universal..But now there is a new ROM so do u hv any other opinions...?
Yes i have more opinions: Just received a new phone from i-teq, exchanged on warranty, it is working the same very bad way, including the lates rom. Also i allready tried the lates Ubiquio rom without any improvement.
I-teq still not answering any e-mails since 2 month ago to me and others users.
Go for any other company but NOT i-teq / Unitec / Gigabyte ( this one is the real maker but they also don't answer to any one that i know from differents countries).
Hey,
After playing around with the Xperia Arc system dump, I am interested in learning how to port some of the applications to other android devices. I thought maybe some of them would work on at least the X10, but apparently not.
I've seen success stories on people porting over the Droid X Multitouch keyboard to nearly every other android device.
I'm just wondering how this is done? Can anyone provide some insight/knowledge on the matter?
Thanks!
Wasn't sure whether to put this is the other section, or this one...so I guess I'll let the mods device
I want to buy a cardio monitoring chest belt. I only find "bluetooth smart" products, but it seems that the one mini bluetooth 4.0 is not "smart"...
Do I have to expect a compatibility issue ?
Do you know if since the OTA update to android 4.3, the bluetooth technology of the phone has became smarter ?
Thanks for your advices

My understanding is "smart" in this case means Bluetooth Low Energy [BLE]. Qualcomm SOC used inside our Mini doesn't support BLE. That said some Samsung and many Xperia phones support BLE (or maybe ANT directly) probably by the means of dedicated chip.
I have got myself Polar Wearlink Bluetooth (http://www.polar.com/en/products/accessories/Polar_WearLink_transmitter_with_Bluetooth) and it works well with the Mini.
The best way to get an answer is
Thanks for you answer. I think the best way is to test a "bluetooth smart" device.
Thats what I'm going to do, and I will feed you back.
theoretically after 4.3 smartbluetooth works , im flashing the 4.3 ROM later on today , Ill see if it works , I have a mio alpha watch .lets see if finally works with endomondo
Good news, our phone is smart !
OK guys, it works. Tested with Runalyzer Blue heart rate monitor, and with Runtastic app.
The connection is quickly established and steady.
The bluetooth chipset is compatible, and the upgrade to Andoïd 4.3 is mandatory.
Thanks for your replies.
Hi guys I recently acquired the xperia M2 (D2303) and a previous owner of the xperia L (C2105)
I was looking around the forum and noticed there is not a lot of kernels or roms for this device.
So I was wondering is that because it is an unpopular handset or is there another reason?
Thanks
From what I know, Sony took a while to release the sources needed to start development. After that, work on CM started almost immediately.
But yeah, it's not really a popular device. Which is kind of a pity, I'm really satisfied with it (except for that bluetooth issue, but it seems I'm alone on this, so it's probably a lemon).
On the other hand the Sony ROMs are really not that bad, so I don't know why I'd want to switch to a custom ROM atm...
Hi,
for some time Xperia J developing got halted with the addition of new sony phones, I tried most of the roms posted here but would like to hear some other users input on pros/cons of some.
Since i have locked bootloader I was limited on stock based ones w/o cpu OC.
Since topics on the subforum are a mess, I hope to hear interesting stuff from you people
Which ones showed potential, which ones worked great for you, which ones had most free ram?
Would like to see if someone has CM on Xperia J that would be fun to hear how Jlo handles the CM
My prefered is Seraphic on looks, but I think Alien had more free ram but was overly unstable.
What says the community?
