hello everyone, im glad to be back! haven't used this forum in well over a year and ive missed it. ive decided to get another ppc. i'm looking at getting the tytn 2 off ebay. basically i want just the most powerful spec ppc. apart from the shift and advantage (cant afford them) this seems the best choice. also i would like a qwerty keyboard although b4 i got by with the spb full keyboard but now i want a qwerty one. if anyone can suggest any other ppc's with a high spec let me know plz. i didn't wanna spend more than a 200 quid but after watching ebay for 3 days it seems i have to.i've got 300 quid but for that i'd like a ppc a decent memory card and some bluetooth stereo headphones such as the sony ones. luckily ive got still got loads software (i.e. tomtom) from b4 but that's from older os'es. the one on ebay is 200 buy it now but its shipped from germany.the whole lisitng is in german but at the bottom is says 'attention int. buyers this phone has german software' surely i can just flash it with an english rom such as dutty's? is that correct?just as i was leaving the forums last time. xda-dev had 2 take all the roms down due to a copyright warning from ms. does this mean i have to cook my own? sounds daunting. basically i just wanna know if this german stellar is gonna b compatible on english nets? and if anyones got any suggestions for another ppc. sorry for posting in the general section, maybe this could have went in a different board but i've got 21 hours or so till the auction ends. thanks guys. glad 2 b bk, gareth
p.s. i've got an almost new orbit with a cracked screen. anyone good at fitting screens, or wanna buy it? or sell me a screen lol. ( i still want a newer ppc though) this is why i left the boards- cracked me screen didnt i lol.
cmon ppl
cmon guys sum1 must b able 2 spare me a minute. the auction ends soon. 'can i buy a german kaiser, flash it wiv english rom and use on uk network'
your post is an awful bit of a read - can't get passed the second row. If you write like that you shouldn't be surprised if you don't get an answer.
Just fyi: I own a german Universal and it runs fine with an english rom. I made about 10 phone call today over english networks. Don't see a reason why this should be problem with any other device.
Hope that answers your question - again i didn't read to the end of your post ...
ok cheers, is it cos i dont use the return key or don't talk with full punctuation? i still havent
bought one because of the display drivers ive heard of. this is putting me off. does anyone
know of a similar spec phone that doesn't use the same chip set and doesn't have the lag
issue? i mite buy a tytn 1 just to save my money and buy a newer one in 6 months what do
others think? should i stay away from this fone at the mo? i don't play 3d games really but i do
listen to music and watch vids on ppc's.any suggestions?whats the most powerful fone
excluding shift and advantage? cheers guys
p.s - is this easier to read?
Hey all, I am thinking of getting either the HD2 or a nexus one subsidized, since thats all I can afford. I will decide on the 30th, but I am stuck on which device to get.
HD2- awesome, big screen slick and clean, WM (Yes I like WM )
Price - 100 at amazon
Nexus One - Froyo, small slick and nice in the hands. Android
Price - 180 at Google.
Which one should I get? Would either of these require a credit check with online purchase?
100 on amazon??
100 what? Pounds, Euros?, Dollars?
I imagine with a USA plan...
Place the link!!!
Go for Leo!
I am also a WM lover so no Android for me at least in 2 years...
Its out of stock, but I will provide links when its up, I still have till the 30th, or the 1st. So that's plenty of time. It is $130 on wirefly. These are both T-Mobile USA versions.
The only reason I am second guessing the Leo is because of the splurge of major developer support for the Nexus One. Lots of things are going to it while WM is left in the cold dark. I know I would rather have WM but that's still stuck in my mind.
I see mate, I´ll stick with WM
let us know the links
Thanks,
hd2 is wayyyy funner
i know i don't have one but i've used one
What do you guys think? Shoot. . . .I have to do a credit check, and use my ssn to get either phone.
All I have to do now is wait till the 30th then I'm gonna get it the first so the bill always comes the first.
I think I am going to go with the HD2, is amazon a good 3rd party mobile phone retailer? Meaning do they screw you contractual wise?
I think amazon is pretty reputable. I just got my HD2 YESTERDAY. Awesome device, the screen isn't as big as you think it might be though. It's really very pocketable. No complaints, at all. Make sure the first thing you install is cookies home tab mod though.
Hardware wise, I would prefer the HTC HD2. But, I personally prefer Android over Winmo.
Sent from my HTC Desire
Get with the program...go with the Nexus Android 2.2!
Soo hard to choose!
It´s your call mate
You had some comments from those who are in favor of Android and from those we prefer WM.
Anyway both devices will make you happy
I think I am gonna go with the HD2. Since its cheaper, but idk how I am going to do that credit check thing.
For me it came down to ugly phone vs. Windows Mobile.
Fortunately I like Windows Mobile.
while looking for a gift for my wife, I played with the nexus one, I bought the HD2. Live wallpaper is cool but the HD2 is so much better in terms of being able to customize it and what was a plus for us was that we were already familiar with the user interface.
Does amazon require a deposit, when you do the credit check? What is the maximum amount you will have to pay?
If u use 3g make sure to get the telstra version.
I have mentioned this before. T-Mobile USA version. . . .
yea for me too i like wmo but also like android, iven playing whit a moto dext whit android 1.6 and i like it so far,,,

and as far as im aware, thats version goes for a lot more (and can really only find it on ebay)
Hi,
google led me here and i saw that questions like this were answered pretty well here, so ill try my luck.
i found the htc aria on the HTC US website and i like it pretty much. its just like an HTC hd mini with android.
i doubt it will come out in europe since we have the hd mini and wildfire here.
unfortunately the aria is AT&T exclusive.
i found out that you can buy the phone at retail price in the US and unlock it.
so im wondering if it would be working here in europe (germany).
will i have the full functionality in europe?
will i get updates such as android 2.2?
will the branding of the phone restrict anything?
ps: i know the phone is pretty new but i hope there might be someone who can help
I`m also searching for new phone and fell in love with the Aria in a video review I found in youtube. So would this phone be operational in EU or will there be something similar for EU rolling out from HTC soon?
Before anybody tells me this is the wrong place to post, I just want to ask a couple of questions.
https://www.eglobalcentral.eu/htc-u...m-free-unlocked-4g-red-hs-code-8471-3010.html
The link above is the 128gb/6gb model of the HTC u11. Ive a funny feeling it is from the Asian market. I just want to know if HTC updates this phone just like the European market. I have a LG G4 and I hate it because LG skips many updates that are pushed to the Eu model and just bundles them into one update to cover another half year of no updates. Also does HTC deliver when it comes to monthly security patches and general updates. I hope they dont skip android versions x.1.1 like LG does. Thank you for listening to my rant.
Same situations here. I have an LG G4, and I want to switch to the HTC U11. I am interested to the 6/128 GB edition from the same site (the price also is very good). I've sent an email yesterday to eglobalcentral and the saw me that the smatphone is for the ASIA market...but the specs are the same of the EU market units (checked from HTC official website). I don't know about firmware updates for the India market..
Hi there people,
I've searched forum a little bit, but didn't found what I need. I want to switch from G6 to Pixel 2, and I can save 200€ by getting Pixel for USA market.
My question is: Is there any difference (except charger), can I use that phone in Europe (Bosnia), network frequencies, software or something is it all the same?
LG has different versions eg. H870, H873, US997, G600 etc..
Should I pay attention to something, and is it worth it? I've red that phone is amazing, best camera, amazing speed, OS up-to-date. All positive things, is there negatives?
P.S. I've googled and it seems that there is none, anyone maybe experienced that?
Thanks guys,
I have the UK version, which is the same as the US one (AFAIK) and no differences except for the charger.
Good to see there's still people in Bosnia who know what a good phone is
