WILL THE O2 HITTIN' THE ASIAN MARKET WITH EXEC ?? OR JUST LET THE DOPOD 900 LEADS THE ASIAN MARKET?? :shock:[/b]
apparently only dopod (sub of HTC)
I CAN'T BELEIVE IT
What is the reason that O2 didn't want to release the EXEC in ASIA.............
anyone could help to answer it??plz
[Everyday just hoping if there is a good news from www.seeo2.com]
im sorry but i think you are waiting in vain. HTC obviously wants a make a quick buck by selling their own devices in that region instead of letting o2.
see this thread for more details

jangan nangis pasal perkara yang remeh temeh
belilah je dopod, lampu merah tak begitu teruk! saya guna versi SPV M5000 dari orange.
i quite like the gunmetal silver and the light silver plate combination of the M5000......
anyway all of the devices are based on the HTC universal, so i dont really know why you're so reluctant to buy the dopod version. i mean, o2 xda sounds so much cooler, its not going to project the same image if you tell people you're using a dopod, but then again it depends how fashion conscious you are...

Yup, I agree that the red backlight looks pretty good ... But yeah, the Exec isn't making its way to SE Asia, so export sets are the only option if you want that blue backlight

Whats the difference between the I-mate jam and the Qtek s100. I was told they are identical, which iis better, and I heard that the Qtek s100 has no vibration is this true?
I-Mate gives 24H, 7days a week / 365 days a year, support by phone etc.
there is no diffrence between MDA/M500/I-mate/Qtek S100/VPA
(only the simlock from T-mobile, Vodafone and Orange

BE AWARE! Qtek support is NON EXISTANT!
In fact, Expansys offers you Qtek units instead of I-mate ones, because they are short of supplies from I-mate.
Is the lack of support a big deal? I mean won't most people go to a forum first anyway?
I was thinking of getting the qtek myself and removing the logo, as Qtek is a crappy name in all honesty.
Do they still provide prompt firmware upgrades? And you can still flash I-mate roms can you not?
Also in the UK at least the warranty offered on the Qtek is 2 years, as oppose to 1 on the I-mate. According to the sales pitch on some the sites at least.

Well, forums are OK, I'm here too, but, What happens if your device language is not in the forum? And, of course, your 2 year warranty will be NOTHING once you tweak your phone.

I did it too, once I found Qtek support does not exist.

If you are not an i-mate owner (valid IMEI), you can not download legally the new upgrades, so back to the warranty issue.

You are lucky, I bought my Qtek through Expansys one and a half year ago, and haven't found yet where to send it for servicing. And no, don't try internet, it is NOT there. Qtek do not provide service even for its own named phones, when sold in another country.
All said, even my carrier, Telefónica, DO NOT support the devices from HTC It re-brands as TSM. You can NOT get even a simple battery!

Hi!
No need to be so rude.
In fact it should be a misspelling, cause the SPV M500 is the same as Magician, and the SPV C500 is the Smartphone. It is just a letter, M or C, as you can see in http://www.msmobiles.com/news.php/3768.html
BTW, their performances are not so different, I have them both now...
:wink:
If you have a problem with the QTEK device, just contact expansys and they would arrange support for you as they were the place of purchase, if they were unable to help at least they would point you in the right direction.

hi,
i was just about ready to order an i-mate jamin from expansys when i saw the orange is planning to propose the htc proophet in france.
this is good news, because i am a long-time orange customer and i hope that they will cut me a break on the price.
on the other hand, is there a risk that orange will sell me a htc prophet with blocked rom, or with silly orange funcrions that i can not get rid of ? i would really hate to get a great phone to find out it is crippled...
on a related note, is there any other factors that can make the difference in a htc prophet from i-mate, qtek, o2, or orange. thanks for any help,
scott

It's possible to get rid of the T-Mobile software on the MDA Compact so Orange may be no different.
You can always install a new ROM.
Hi...
i would like to buy a HTC prophet derivate...
as far as i understood from reading the wikipage
there is no technical difference btw e.g.
dopod 818pro, qtek S200 and o2 neo...
However, I oberserved a big difference in price for the latter two in germany (around 80-100 €)... dopod is not available here...
So does anyone knows a reason for this ?
I would very much like to stick to the cheapest one (of course),
but maybe there are some minor differences...
I also read that a dopod with english rom boots faster than a Qtek version with german rom ??
However, one could change this just by loading a new ROM, right ??
thanks for clearing things up...

They are the same apart from the badge painted on them.
Well mostly anyway. They differ only in the software each provider adds to the basic specification. For example O2 will add O2 Plus.
You can indeed flash one prophet ROM with the ROM of the other prophet - but be careful otherwise you will end up with an expensive paper weight.
The price difference relies upon the software bundled and the warranty and tech support you get.
QTek costs less because there's almost lacking tech support, but at least you get twice as much of warranty (2 years vs 1 year) than on other brands.
Hi Rayan...
in fact, the o2 Version is cheaper than the QTek one...!
But thats a different story... Just after i ordered the o2 mobile on monday "night", i noticed that the price was higher on tuesday morning (similar to the Qtek) - maybe i asked too much questions
However, i ordered for the cheaper price; lets see if i will get it...
cu.... Marcel
P.S. in generell i have the feeling that technical support is always a bit disappointing... usually you find more help in these kinds of forums
Hint: O2-prices can vary a *lot* between online shop, O2-stores, independent phone stores and the MediaMarkt stores.
Be sure to check that!

Hi ...
yep, true... But i just got my o2 neo last Friday from an internet store and... the display is heavily damaged... one can use it but it has a huge (20x10 pixs) spot of dead pixls...
So.. having bought it in a slightly more expensive o2 store would be nice now as well... lets see...
cheers.. Marcel
I'am looking to get this on 02... any ideas when its out?
As orange are sold out
Talk to Orange and ask them to put you on a prepurchase list, I did heh, there has been no announcement from O2 as to the release of the TyTn but I read on theregister that O2 had had a falling out with HTC and possibly wouldn't be releasing any more of them. Though, as with all news of that type, it could be wrong as O2 have to be a reasonably major customer of HTC
i like 02 as they dont brand the phone, and to buy offline is crazy!

It's not coming out on o2
Well, I'm sure Buzz and the team will work out an unlock for it sometime, and also someone will come up with unbranded roms, besides, just look at the branding on the HTC Universal / XDA Exec as it ships from O2 lol you CAN turn the orange branding options off (apart from the orange logo on the case lol)
Just a point on unbranding. I have an Orange M3100 and got a T-Mobile VarioII. the VarioII doesn't have any button to the top left of the D pad whereas on the M3100 it's a video call button which I believe can be re-assigned to other apps.
No sure which other operators are doing this, if any.
Just a point to those who might want to re-brand and 'play' with the device.

Hi dee ho folks, not long regged on the forum and i did search on the forum, google, ebay and the likes before i posted so here goes
Does anyone know where i can source an actual HTC-branded Housing for the Universal? I've been given an O2 XDA Exec FOC from uncle and as the screen's cracked i thought i'd be as well replacing the case as i'll be unlocking it as well
Prefer that to the i-mate JasJar housing - JasJar sounds too like a Star Wars character i prefer not to mention!
Anyone ideas? All i can find is the O2, T-Mobile, Vodafone & Orange housings

AFAIK there's no such thing as an HTC Universal, as HTC used to sell all their phones to other companies at that time. There was no real HTC brand yet. The closest to an HTC Universal would probably be an I-mate or Qtek one, as these companies used to to have the closest ties to HTC.
here you can find different versions http://www.shope2.com/Product.php?cpath=1_171_178 they do have also other parts. buttt it is not cheap.. dont know whether you wanted to invest that money for a old device.
