they even remove the device from their website
so, did they give up MDA Vario?? :?:
They have removed the vario from the website because they are releasing the mda vario II in may, which is the htc hermes - can't wait to see it.
see here http://www.coolsmartphone.com/news2343.html

where did u get the release date for the vario II
i thought they'd removed the vario from the website as they can't meet demands at the moment - the vario is still available in stores :roll:
I got a vario two days ago but they are not showing on the site as they are continually running out of stock. (not surprised when even on the cheapest web'n'walk package it was only about £36)
The German T-Mobile release date is May but apparently the UK won't be seeing it untill Q4. (Direct from their sales team though who knows if the were fibbing or not)
T-Mobile ARE not releasing the Vario 2 anywhere in the near future. There has been no talk wahtsoever of it being released anytime until Q3!
The real reason for the Vario not being on the website is because the tremendous success of Flext has resulted in a stock shortage. It is T-Mobile policy to remove out of stock handsets from the website so as not to result in huge waiting lists.
in addition and reply to the original question. The AKU2 rom update has not been released becuase for most NORMAL users there is absoultely no need for it.
When T-Mobile release the planned instant email service for Microsoft Exchange I imagine this will release it instantly.

Do you know if they have it ready? People are buying these things at our place with their own money with the expectation that the ROM upgrade push is coming out any day.
thx for everybody...
so, i may have to wait unitl May??
i think i should use another rom instead..
I think we will be looking closer to June.
To be honest anybody with the technical know how and ability to set up a Microsoft Exchange Server or use a paid service should know how to flash another ROM.
On a bigger scale think how easy it is to setup a blackberry compared with Microsoft Direct Push, imagine the extra calls into technical support for those wishing to use it.
However WHEN the full service is release it will be beat everybody else!
is it available in t-mobile stores?
is there a chance to get a mda vario in one of their stores? id like to buy one but its not possible online because it was removed already from their site.
thanks.

I rang up the sales line (number is on the site) and ordered a Vario straight away on flext 35 and Web n Walk. Got the 25% discount also and the phone arrived next day . Give them a ring, i dont think they plan on adding it back to the site for some time.
thats a good idea. will call soon. thanks a lot.
This is what I have just today been told about the ROM upgrade....

Thank you for your email regarding AKU for your MDA Vario.
We have a new ROM version scheduled for release by the end of next month. At the moment, however, we are unsure of whether or not it will have the facility for push email. We are still in the process of deciding what features to add/improvements to make.
Our download site is: www.t-mobile.co.uk/webnwalksoftware
If you check there at the end of June then if all goes to plan the new ROM will be available there. We are not sure if we are going to release AKU2 as there may be issues relating to our own blackberry service if we release it as they could be in direct competition to one another. Blackberry on the Vario is another thing that we are looking into releasing with the next ROM.
-----
need to wait until the end of june and without aku2????
it is totally unacceptable..
use O2 or qtek rom is better...
The AKU for t-mobile is now out....
Also on the CPW site the MDA Vario is quoted as 'discontinued'....
What everyone finding t-mobile coverage like? It used to be shocking, but unlimited data is an interested prospect.

i just checked the t-movile website but its not showing anything new. where did you get your infofrom? or where can i download the rom?
thx

as long as you can read german... but its a step!
Danke :lol:
Ace! That must mean the UK Version is out soon!!!
...least i hope so :?
I've got the German download. I can read enough German to run this and make it happen, but what it doesn't tell me is whether this is a .WWE or a .DE ROM update. Obviously I don't want to apply it and find it's all German. Can anyone who has applied the ROM confirm if it's Worldwide or just German?
Cheers!
Hi All,
I am an O2 customer in the UK and as they were the original company to bring the XDA concept to us, why have they chosen to not release the XDA Trion in the UK? I am well aware it is out in Germany but why not here? Have they got too many XDA Mini S units in stock or what?
If anyone can shed some light on this, please do, what have they kept up their sleeve? Is there something better on the way already?
I look forward to your comments and thanks for the feedback.
I just had a call from o2 for business following my email to them of when they expected the Trion to be released in the UK, and the rep said that there were no plans to release it in the UK at all.
So, how are they going to compete with T mobile who not only are going to release it over here, but also have a great data tariff in Flext with web n walk?
Orange, who are already offering it, and vodafone who already have it apparently!
I have been with O2 since the Genie days, and have been reasonably happy with them up until recently. Probably round the time they were bought out.
Bizarre!
They didn't do the XDA Neo either. :roll:
Maybe they have something better up their sleeves?
Well Voda and T-Mobile has HSDPA but O2 don't so perhaps this the reason why. However it does seem a bit odd given the amount of effort O2 made over the XDA Exec.
O2 tend to have a yearly lifecycle on their XDA's whereas the other SP's tend to release as and when. Bearing this in mind and the fact that the Mini S and Exec have only been out for 8 and 9 months respectively, I wouldn't expect to see a new device from O2 until November/December.
Interesting point on the product life cycle. I have heard that O2 are seriously looking at releasing the HP Ipaq 6915, so maybe that is why they have steered clear of the Trion for now. Also I do not like the look of the HTC TyTn or the Vodafone V1605 compared with the Orange SPV M3100 and Trion. The button configuration on the latter two is more pleasing to the eye. So if I want one I have to go for the "ugly" one as I have a great deal from O2!!! I wish we could get the Dopod 838 pro here, subsidised on contract!!!
I just had an interesting conversation with O2 business regarding the release of the XDA Trion in the UK.
First person I spoke to told me that the Trion was not on the 15 week schedule of new phones releases so it definately wouldn't be released in that time.
So I phoned a different number at O2 and was told that the Trion is expected sometime late August or September??!!! I told the man what I had previously been told by the other rep and he says that is rubbish and that the unit is currently being tested by the testing unit prior to it's UK release!
So it seems the phone is coming to the UK...but I bet if I call a third person at O2 they will tell me something completely different...*sigh*
Why dont these people sing from the same hymnsheet?
Anyone heard any different news on the Trion's UK release date (if ever?)??
Al
You are right there. They have no idea what they are doing. Someone I spoke to said it is for America only. I said O2 have a network in America, she says yes, not checked, but I didn't think so. I said so why is out in Germany? You must be mistaken sir, must be.
I asked about HSDPA, and they checked with network services who said it is not being released by O2 as it offers very little extra bandwidth over 3G. I said I think you should ask them to check that.
I am on such a stonking tariff, I do not want leave O2, so here's hopeing the Trion turns up, otherwise I will have to conisder the P990i.
Yes Sunnychad, they dont have a clue. I really want this phone and am on a mission to find out the truth about UK release or not. See what you can find out at your end too.
Al
I spoke to someone in retentions about leaving as I wanted to move to a network that has the equivalent of the Trion and is offering HSDPA too. She put me on hold after telling me I was a select customer etc. Came back to say it is on the cards but there is no confirmed release date as the Trion is still in testing etc. I said OK. She then said there is something else coming called the O2 Jet. I am also aware that O2 are releasing the HP HW6915.
Also just found this link. I wonder what this handset is.

This is an O2 xda Atom Exec:
http://www.seeo2.com/product/XdaAtomExec/template/Product.vm
It is manufactured by Quanta, not HTC:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Atom_Exec
I think you are mistaken.
There are pictures of 2 phones, one is referred to as New XDA and has a camera on the front panel, therefore 3G.
The other is of the XDA Atom Exec in a state of disrepair. Have another look and let me have you thoughts.
Thanks

Thanks Sunnychad. Both the O2 Jet and Atom Exec are not phones I'd want. Desperate to have th O2 Trion, just love it's look and feel and want to stay with O2. Please can you keep me posted regarding anything you hear about it's UK release?
Thanks

Email just recieved....
I've just recieved an email from O2 re. the release of the Tytn, doesn't look good....
"Thank you for your email.
Sorry for the delay in responding, I can confirm that the Xda Trion is not going to be released in the UK, this device is to be sold overseas only. I can only apologise for the mis-leading information provided by customer services, the device as you have stated has been released in Germany, although I am also unsure if it has been released anywhere else.

But are we to believe this latest reponse when the tesing team are actually 'testing' the Trion for the UK now?
Wouldn't take too much from that. You know, I think we just have to wait and see as O2 can't give us anything solid to go by.
Al
O2 UK are not releasing the Trion.
Dave, I don't think anyone can comment about it's release for sure as I've been told by the media dept. at O2 that they are testing the unit for general release in the UK. Also Ive been told by a shop (unbelievable I know) that it is to be released. As well as being told completely conflicting info by other sources.
We'll see.

Hi,
Ordered a Vario 2 from a T-mobile store about 4 weeks ago - still out of stock. Tried to order on-line, order was processed successfully but then had a follow up call saying its out of stock.
I really need to get off my current tariff so hope they sort something soon!
Is anyone else in this position/has anyone else managed to obtain a phone in the last month? Any T-Mobile insiders have an idea when your getting some?
Thanks,
Paul
Yeah i have ordered one on monday. Still no news os still waiting. Let us know whey u receive one.
just to upset u all. i ordered mine online on last tuesday, and got it the next day been playing with it ever since.
Hi there, if it's t-mobile UK you are referring to I ordered mine 12 days ago online and received it the next day. I was told on two occassions when I called them that they were out of stock, but one day I rang they had 500 odd in stock. That is when I rushed my order through online.
This would mean I had mine when your order was waiting. I'd ring them and play hell if I were you.
Thanks for the tip off g00nerz. I guess there possibly working through a back log of orders, that said, I am not impressed at having to wait a month when other people have got one very quickly - I'm going to give them hell tomorrow!
Many Thanks.
I ordered my vario ii through t-mobile direct from my holiday in spain on monday 8th october and it arrived at my home in the uk the next day.....
these are rushing out of stock so fast, so it you can grab one, get it fast...
This has really annoyed me - thinking of choosing a different carrier - its ridiculous to wait 4 weeks for a phone - the store hasnt even given me a courtesy call. I know they're in short supply but I've ordered two in the last month and neither has been sent!
Thanks for letting me know the "state of play"
Hi All,
Rang Tmob this morning inquiring the status of my order and apprantly the update is that there are component shortages (did nto say what components) but the long and short of it it that the phone will now not be available until the end of the month !!!
So i guess we will still be waiting a while then !!
I spoke with T-Mobile yesterday as I was expecting a swap out unit today. It appears that the current batch they have in stock is being held back for quality checking. I had a problem with mine (another replacement received Monday) which indicated that the manufacturer (HTC) has not carried out the vendor specific setup properly (ie keeps asking for a network unlock code). I can only assume other stock units have got the same problem.

Wow. Went to order mine today only to find that T-Mobile have completely removed the Vario 2 from their website.
Looking bad...

I wouldnt worry about that, it disappears and re-appears all the time! When I went to sign up for a web and walk tarriff the other week the only phone it would offer me (and put in the basket!) was a v3 razr - in pink! Phoned customer services and they said that the website was in the process of an overhaul and hence it was in error.
Tell a lie, just checked my e-mail and its been dispatched -- hoorah! Should be here before 1 tomorrow apparently.
Maybe the MD of T-Mobile reads the Hermes message board?!

Since T-mobile introduced the new WebnWalk tariffs on Oct 1st 2006, the Vario2 has flown off the shelves becuase the handset doubles as a USB modem for laptops and the WNWPlus is a better package than anything Vodafone or Orange offer with their data cards. This is why I bought one to try out for my company, I know of another company that bought 31 for their sales staff in one hit and more of my customers are doing the same having been pleased with what I've told them already.
T Mobile takes the phone off the website when they sell out which accounts for its dissappearance. I must say though as a business customer the service is fantastic, everytime I have called CS I have got through in under 2 mins usually it takes a few rings once I have got through the menu system to the right department and am very pleased with it. I've got my TT6 installed with my GPS236Slim receiver, can take calls whilst its plugged in to my laptop as a modem and Remote Access (Terminal Server) is usuable even when not in a 3G cell so I'm in heaven and it works on the norfolk broads of all places!!!!!
Ah that's not so bad, then. Never having used T-M before I didn't expect that. I would have thought that just marking it as not currently in stock would be a better option that pulling it, but maybe that's just me.
I guess I just check the site to see when it reappears, then!
Awesome. I just had a call from T-mobile UK. The Vario 2 is now in stock and I can order one for delivery tomorrow.
I had to check on some things so called back, spoke to someone else, and suddenly they've not been in stock today and won't be available until next week.
Mr. left hand and Mr. right hand need to get talking, I think.
T-mobile told me that they'l have them in stock this week when rang them last week. I've just come off the phone from t-mobile and they've just told me they had no idea when they'l have them in stock and to try next week...... wtf cant they get their act together. I've never known anything like it... if only orange or vodafone matched the web n walk tariff then i'd be off like a shot!!! (i think its ony a matter of time) if anyone from T-Mobile is reading this "this get your act together".
Just rang T Mob again and this time not end of the month but "we have no clue when they will get them in." So my response well for the inconvience are you willing to throw in a free SD card or something else ? Oh No sir we are not allowed to do that. Ok then thanks for your call !!
WTF!! what do they mean no clue. Why accept orders when u know you can fulfill them ??
Anyway just an update for you folks! Dont except the vairo II anytime soon. (I hope i am wrong) !

My vario comes tomorrow... I live in The Netherlands.
T-Mobile in the netherlands had also problems with the vario II stock. But after 2 weeks its solved and they do delivery's from monday!
My Vodafone HD2 is set to arrive tomorrow, and I know that because of the way Vodafone are that it is going to be heavily branded (White and Red instead of the nice ice cold black theme).
Does anyone know if i can flash it with a standard WWE ROM.
Will let everyone know how it is tomorrow. Got the last one they had in stock today.
if you are getting a HD2 on Voda tomorrow (like me) it suggest you have bought a strapon contract from a site like mobilephones direct (like me) as Voda does not do the HD2 yet. These phones come with a stock HTC ROM and are not branded at all. I got a hd1 on such a contract which is how I know.
Vodafone got the HD2 from today. My X1 came with very minimal Vodafone branding, so I'm guessing you might be ok.
@ Stoolzo - No my HD2 is from Vodafone themselves. They had it on their website for about 2 days and have now removed it (probably cause i got their last one,he,he). Their contract is really good on it also.
£40 a month, 900 mins, Unlimited text, landline calls & internet, and the best part, the phone is FREE!!!!!

I'm not sure if it will be heavily branded. There was some comment about it in the Vodafone forums, someone asking if the black theme that the HD2 uses would come to the Touch Pro 2. The guy didn't say that the HD2 would be red and white.
My last two phones from Vodafone weren't too heavily branded, so I think we might be ok. I hope so at least. Otherwise I will wait to Hard-SPL and flash the normal HTC stock ROM.
According to our corporate account manager at HTC, Vodafone have done no branding of the HD2 at all. It's the main reason why they have been able to come to market before any of the other operators. From what I'm told, the Vodafone HD2's will also be unlocked.
It's the supposed lack of branding that persuaded me to go with Vodafone, rather than waiting for O2. I hope the HTC chap is right.
Bagpuss.
@ Bagpuss... He,he now i can finally go to sleep alright tonight and stop searching the net to find out. I know I'm getting the phone tomorrow, but wanted to be ready to try and get any vodafone stuff off of it so i have a nice clean ROM.
Thanks so much for the info, will let you know how things turn out tomorrow.
magic mind reader
i predict you wont get the HD2,
I predict you will get a txt saying:
"Your vodafone order has been delayed and won't be delivered as planned. We will send you another message with a new delivery date when your order is dispatched from our warehouse.

Hi, doesn't gaiden mean F*ck in farsi?
Dam, just got the message that my phone won't be delivered till Monday now, i am so so pissed about it.
Was looking forward to spending the weekend configuring it and testing it out.
Vodafone today issued a 1.66 ROM and they stopped selling the phone to non-business customers in December. If they can support existing customers with updates then why cannot O2, especially considering O2 still sell the phone!!!
I don't want to load a cooked ROM, so lets push O2 for a new ROM and continued support including WM 6.5.3.
Sere my poll on the O2 forums in the XDA board
Thanks
Mike
I am quite happy with my cooked rom, i hate all the crap o2 stick in their roms, the fist thing i did was get rid of their rom.

I just asked this question in another thread but more relevant here:
I've been on o2 for years through carphone warehouse and i have never been given a branded phone. My HD2 serial is able to download the 1.66 rom from HTC site and update. Why is my phone not branded ? i'm not moaning!!! just curious
Some shops sell unbranded/vendor locked phones - Phones4U sell the HD2 on VF unbranded too...I think it's better practice as it means less people coming back to kick off at them!

Agreed! O2 should really provide decent support for the phone. I have flashed a cooked ROM but it would be nice to know O2 were working on getting an updated ROM I can fall back on.
They shouldn't release a locked and branded device if they aren't willing to provide software updates.
I`ve been with O2 for years, you won`t get many rom upgrades. Maybe one every 6 months. For the first year then they`ll maybe 1 a year after that. Why should they, they`ve got your money, the stock O2 rom has little bugs in it, why risk introducing more bugs....
Get flashing,, nothing to be afraid of.............

Im just curious, what kind of crap do you mean?
I Used my Diamond on the O2 Rom, they provided updates for that, so I can't see why there not for the HD2 yet.
Theres nothing wrong with my HD2 to warrant a Rom update, but its always nice to have the up-to-date rom.
Also, I have never used a custom Rom as there are just too many to choose from and never find one I truely like. So I'm happy with what I got.
I have an o2 HD2 and used the HTC site to download the 1.66 ROM and flashed that. No problems what so ever. I think all mine had was the o2 wallpaper I don't remember seeing anything else "o2" about the phone.
The "o2 get settings" is from the USIM so once I had flashed I used the get settings and then from the connection manager told it the UK and o2 and that did the rest. I do not see why you want an official 1.66 when the only thing I think you will get is the wallpaper?
I must say I never had issues with o2's 1.43 however I did not run it long before flashing. I do thou; find 1.66 fantastic and with cookies home screen mods; even better.

cheers, alkorsi
Not so sure about that, just got this reply from O2:
Good morning Michael
Thanks for emailing us abut the updated ROM for the HTC HD2 phone. I understand that Vodafone released a 1.66 ROM on 22 February 2010 and they stopped selling the phone to non business customers in December 2009. I'll quickly let you know about it.
Michael, I'd like to tell you that we currently have the ROM: 1.43.206.4 version. I've sent the software upgrade steps to you via another email, in case you need it. Unfortunately, we don't have the 1.66 ROM version yet, once it's available with us, we'll be able to help you with it.
Unfortunately, we're unable to comment about Vodafone having this software. You can call our customer service team on 0870 600 3009 and they'll transfer your call to our data support team, for any further information.
Kind regards
O2 Customer Service
Getting your query right the first time you email us is very important to us. If your query has not been resolved this time, please reply to this email with the words 'Need More Help' in the subject field.

Why cant you guys just flash it unofficially???? Aside from installing HSPL, there isnt any difference.
Seriously, just install the official HTC 1.66 rom then, that's not cooked and basically the same... it's not so hard... Who would want an operator bloated rom, anyways?
To install the official ROM will involve loading HSPL as my serial number is locked to O2. Why should I have to invalidate my warranty to keep up with the latest fixes - I don't have to do this with other Microsoft software!!!!
well then you are at the mercy of O2
and you can always remove the hspl and put the original rom on if you need to send it back
Not if you have a major hardware failure!
I got my phone direct from o2, and there is no branding on it at all, not even a wallpaper. Downloaded the new ROM from the 1.66 and will flash that this next week.
Are o2 supplying Branded & Unbranded HD2's ??
All my other HTC phones have been branded by them.
It's only recently that some of the HD2 phones they supply are unbranded, all early adaptors got locked O2 branded phones. The only difference between branded and unbranded is the startup wallpaper and the removal of the WiFi router.
