Thank's
Yeah, it's interesting, but will they made 640*480 device?
YES!
Now that's a device I'm gonna get!
Wasn't really sure about the Blue Angel.. Didn't really care much for design and keyboard..
Looks bulky..
Does anyone know the Qtek model name/number of the Alpine?
I am a little disappointed, I thought the XDA2i - which I will be upgrading to - had all the benefits of the IIs but with even higher specs? I was getting quite used to the idea of having a black coloured phone, with a little querty kb as in the 's', now I found out that it's going to be almost the same look and feel as the XDA2.
Confused
XDA III
o2 Germany's Xda III will exclude the camera :

so many varian from O2 XDA, code name is still Blue Angel !! :roll:
xda2 s suck's
after using xda2,
i found xda 2s,
verry bad like the screen its i think 50% dull than the xda2, I mean when u tilt the phone side way or up and down u can see the colour change from yellow to white, this never use to happen in xda2 and the colour quality is also bad am curseing my self why did I upgrade???T
he jabra bluetooth which worked fine with xda2 dosen't work well with 2s lot of hissing,
i am really unhappy with the screen quality,
so guy's and gal's stick to xda2 and pray that xda3 will have a crisp and clear screen and the bluetooth will work fine,
i think i will buy me the XDA IIi
hopefully it will released soon in Germany..
:roll: anyone have some date??
PPCW.net XDAIIi
Hi all,
Looks like a fake to me, unless I'm missing somthing why would they keep the old shape of the XDA II. Just looks like a revamped XDA II.
:shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:
Looks like a good upgrade to me. The XDAIIs is just too bulky. When will this be available :?: :?: :?:
:twisted:
It's just a PDA and after having the XDAII, not really impressed with it at all.
The XDA II is a bit on the boring side, well unless you get one then spend hours making it do other things.... :?: ....which really is what they appear tobe all about. :idea:
As a phone they are not good in general, as an extention to your Laptop they are reasonable, but seriously...... :?: ....what are they good for....... ?
A good toy to play with me thinks and thats that.
Heh?
I am confused now, isn't the XDA IIi the same as the XDA IIs which is the same as the XDA III (quotes, not my own words)?
The reason I am asking is because I bought my XDA IIs from O2 today, and apart form being in a graphite/black/grey colour and the keyboard its not to dissimilar to my XDA II.
Now my bro purchased his XDA IIs from eBay, called the MDAIII, except for being a cool silver colour like the XDA II its no different to my XDA IIs... so what is going on?
By the way the XDA IIs is not really any different to the XDA II/i-mate etc, the only major difference I can see right now is the inclusion of the keyboard (too small for my hands) and built-in WiFi (easily done with a standard XDA II using something like a SanDisk WiFi card) - apart from that the tech spec is the same, I was half exepcting a better quality camera (the XDA II camera is good in its own right though), unfortunately it is identical to the XDA II. WM2003SE is cool though even though half my apps don't work with it and the landscape mode is only really any good for Word/Excel and Internet Browsing.
Cheers,
Taz
Hmm, was going to buy the XDAIIs, then heard about the XDAIIi but i like the idea of the keyboard on the XDAIIs (grrrr).
Wonder if they will release a version of the XDAIIi with the keyboard.
Actually, does anyone know if the case will be black like the XDAIIs?
Graham
anybody know when i-mate will release their version of the XDA IIi?

During Q1 of 2005... wait for 3GSM Exhibition and you may see the PDA2 (XDA IIi)...
XDA IIs is very different to XDA II. If you think they're similar on the outside, you want your head looking at!! Internally they seem very similar in terms of spec list.
The IIi is, as I had expected, the XDA II with some useful upgrades, though 400Mhz to 500Mhz isn't a great step up. I would be tempted to get that, but I'm hoping the next one - can they call it XDA III?! - will have the keyboard *and* better CPU *and* VGA.
I would have to assume that the IIi's CPU runs at 500Mhz-or-so simply to save on battery usage - if they're using the same package, they're probably using the same batteries so they won't necessarily be taking advantage of increased battery performance at this time.
Of course, it's only really a matter of time before we start seeing PDAs with 20Gb 1.8" hard disks in like the Sony NW-HD1 I got hold of - or maybe the new 1" hard disks they've released recently. Batteries are getting better all the time and electronics (and disks) are getting smaller all the time. The XDA II remains one of the better devices out there despite being some 18 months old now, so I think PDAs are going to have to catch up with other consumer electronics sooner or later.
In the next few years look out for 800x600 OLED displays and hard disks in PDAs.
I knew that SE is very bad with updates. An one of the reasons i chose the X1 is because i knew that XDA developers existed. Therefore I ask you "Would you have bought your X1 if you didn't knew that XDA existed?"
I had already decided to buy it before I knew XDA existed. Funny thing is, I couldn't imagine working without XDA now. So I'm glad I found it. ^_^
I have to admit I'd struggle to choose a non htc based phone unless there's somewhere as useful.
The new Tosh appeals, but there's not much in the way of discussion and dev on their kit. The modaco tosh subforum has a minuscule amount of posts.
I bought my X1 before i knew that xda existed
I think I know what this poll will show. There are allot of fresh members in the x1 section. well, not all people are like me then. Now, when I think of it. All of my phones that I have had have been modded in some way, bouth hardware and firmware.
Sincerely, no I wouldn't.
I was going to buy a Nokia 5880 Xpressmusic after a long time wondering which one was the best for me (between 5800 and X1).
But when I realized that you all were here, ...well, guess how it ended?
Well, I decided to buy X1 and bought it before I know XDA. And because I bought X1,I found there...
If I didn't buy a X1,maybe I will not know XDA till now.
You know I am from China where is not a English country,I usually don't go to a English forum,just for find something I will do that.But now,because X1,I get there.

Same here..
i didnt even know about htc phones never mind cooking roms and xda
only got the x1 as the hype engine drizzled lubricant over me got me
and nokia phones died on me twice 7110 and n80 but im happy that i found it
.......my x1 and xda forums
Yes. I think although WM can be enhanced, it's not all that bad out-of-the-box if you just need the PDA & Phone features. I mean there are some useful today plugins which come as default and most stuff works just fine (for example SPB mobile shell panel)
Only real catch is that there is no good on-screen keyboard pre-installed.
But most of the addon stuff I installed on my X1 I never really use.
I ordered the X1a and only then did I find XDA.
I have an HTC TyTN and have been using XDA to tweak it very succesfuly. I am now planning to change to SE X1 (honestly I'd prefer HTC Touch HD but its 3G doesn't work in my country). I was very unsure to choose X1 but as soon as I found XDA has a dedicated section to it I'm now very happy and confident to do it. Thanks XDA!
I was deciding between TouchHD and X1, leaning towards TouchHD due to the onscreen keyboard and TF3D. When I found XDA and saw that I can tweak both in X1, I did not look back!
This my first post here.
I decided to buy the Xperia X1 because of this excellent forum. It´s simply the best smartphone related forum I have visited to this day.
The information and tweaks, ROM development and so on is perfect and it enhances the device on a very nice way.
Keep up the good work!
I was searching for a phone with keyboard, GPS and touchscreen. I was leaning towards the Touch Pro to have support over here at XDA.
When I saw Xperia's specs, I was like OMG... a wvga screen and a metal casing /me wants
I came over here to see what XDA guys thought about the Xperia, and saw Xperia's own forum section Two minutes later, my order was made
Xperia is a cool phone, but when you know XDA, it becomes just fantastic
To be honest these days I would never buy a smartphone without a decent support/community...
Why? Because it's much safer and also - there are NO problem-free devices today!!
And especially with a new platform like WM for me - I would not deduct many things by myself!!
But It'd be the same with any new device for me.

yup, same thing here
Good question..
I knew about XDA before.. and it sure made it easier to buy the device knowing what comes out of this forum
Without XDA i wouldn't buy a Xperia, i am using XDA for about a year now (HTC Touch). And love the quality of the phones they make. And flahsing roms since i came here.
Without this forum i wouldn't buy a new WM phone because standard they are to slow
Ok guys, sorry I have been M.I.A. on the forums, but Medical school caught up with me and my Blackstone. After using it for a month, I decided to use the phone that I received from T-Mobile "Samsung Behold" and got used to the little device, thus I havent used my blackstone for a while. Now, it has come to my attention, that I may be possibly wanting to sell my Blackstone for the money due to my financial situation right now. I would be selling it with 3 cases and a pack of stylus, but that is beside the point right now. I have been looking around at the juicy phones coming out and the Samsung Omnia caught my attention. Granted I would have to import it once again, what exactly is the difference between the Omnia and HD? I will wait for the G2 to come out and check it out and, if I have the money, may look into the Omnia. Any advice from you all is always appreciated. I would wait for the Huawei G3, but nothing concrete has come up lately.
what model Touch HD do you have? Might be interested in purchasing if its a t8285.
here's the prior thread with the scoop..good luck: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=445171&highlight=omnia
Thanks galaxys didn't mean to double post, will read the thread you posted.

PM me buddy, we will talk
Why you added a special section for Omnia II ? I am 99% sure that HTC even didn't "touch" it. If you are doing so, please add section for Xperia X2 and Samsung i900 Omnia
i agree on adding Xperia X2. if its possible
Hey,
You're right that HTC didn't have a part in making the Omnia II.
A few weeks ago we announced that due to overwhelming requests, we will begin adding select non-HTC forums as proposed by the users. You can read more about it here.
oh god i was this close to buying an Omnia II
i even got a damn Samsung Jet by Mystake cause they looked so much alike in the pics...i even think they have the same processor
if i knew it would be here, that wouldve tipped the balance for me

Personally, I'm glad XDA is adding non-HTC phones. Though I'm still using a Vogue, the best of the new devices my carrier offers is the Omnia II, and I'd love to see XDA become the one-stop ROM shop.
Oh wow! Finally! One of my biggest concerns before I ditched the HTC Diamond for the Omnia 2 was not having a place as active as XDA-Developers to come for all sort of tweaks and ROMs.
After a month of using the Omnia 2 I was already missing this place so much.
Many thanks for this!!!

You're not the boss around here, aren't you?
First of all, i have to admit that this IS a forum made for HTC technology...
I respect that...
But as far i can see... This community started not only with HTC hardware...
It started with software... Windows mobile, to be more precise...
And what runs windows mobile? HTC... Sony Ericsson... Samsung!
And toshiba too (oh noes...) even the HTC fanboys may have another windows mobile gadget at home.... and it may not be an HTC....
And to say thanks to who've made the decission of open a space to share the wisdow of this great community with the other folks, even if they're motorola, samsung, toshiba, china phones... even the iphone... watever
Keep up the good work

Seriously, what's wrong with helping more people?
Thanks everyone at XDA!!!
Can't believe my eyes! I was really thinking about going to an HTC HD2 and the main reason was:
XDA DEVELOPERS SUPPORT!
At the last time I decided for an Omnia II (half of the price! and 8Gb internal storage...)
Now what I found????? XDA DEVELOPERS SUPPORT!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks a zillion guys! I'm just going for a another donation to this beloved forum!!!!!!!!!!!!
thank you for OMNIA II
thank you people.

This is certainly great news for almost anyone who owns an omnia 2, like myslef.
Got my Touch HD stolen and the best option i had in my country was the Omnia 2 or nothing for me.
But my only worry was the lack of support i got for my omnia from XDA. but since i didn't want to spend too much on anew phone i went for the omnia
and hope one day XDA will consider other device and luckily it was in my days of living.
Thanks to all the administrators and the folks that voted for support for other phones.
Greatly appreciated
Cheeerrrssss!!!!!!!
The name XDA owned by O2, where they rebranded all their pocket pc and smartphones made by not just HTC but also Erima, Quanta, Asus, Gigabyte
ie.
XDA Atom/ Life / Exec were manufactured by Quanta Computer
XDA Stealth was manufactured by Gigabyte Commnunication
XDA Graphite and Zest were manufactured by Asus
So what make you think that this site only for HTC made product? If really want to strict ourself to the name then this site shall not discuss non O2 xda rebranded products. HTC made device without O2 rebranded shall be probihited in this site (i.e Android, HD2, X10, Xperia).
So we really dont want that to happen or do we?
Man am I upset at myself . I sold my i8000 last week. One of the biggest factors was the lack of support from XDA-Developers!!!
omnia 2 is a great phone i think
interesting, and its always to nice to see more phone support. arent samsung phasing out their windows mobile line though? for android and their weird ass os.
This made my day Thank You XDA

very true!!!!!!!!!
You know I just don't get people. Why the hell are you attacking people who have a differently manufactured device. Seriously, are they a threat? No. I don't see it. The HTC devices will still be supported the same. Nothing will change there. Is it because your all wanting a private little group only for HTC? That's how I see things are going around here. Seriously? Who gives? They all run WM. What is the difference? Help people all you can not push them away. What your all doing now is biting the hand that feeds you. If XDA chose to include the i8000, they probably had good reason for it. After all it is quite a successful device with a lower than normal price point. I have one and I love it!
Hi guys!
I just bought my Focus and it will arrive sometime next week here in the Philippines. I know there are issues about unlocking the Focus to allow other carriers to connect, but I'll find ways around it.
I'm so excited to start writing code for this phone. And I'm also grateful that this community exists.
I guess its time to brush up on my programming and all the useful information everyone has posted.

Well, since this is your first post...welcome to the wonderful world of XDA! You will learn lots here, and probably be amazed at what these guys can do,,,I know I am.
Also, welcome aboard as a new Samsung Focus owner (well, soon enough you will be). I just recently bought this phone outright from Rogers and Im absolutely inlove with it. Coming from many android phones like: Nexus One, Xperia X10, Galaxy S Captivate, I can say Im extemely pleased with WP7 and I love the change...as a matter of fact Ill go as far as saying Im liking it more than Android at the moment.
Have fun!!!
