Hi again!
Does anybody know anything about such gadget:
http://www.rusgsm.ru/cgi-bin/rusgsm.storefront/EN/Product/4699
It contains spare accu + CFI-II adapter + VGA/Svideo- Outputs
Is usefull and convinient?
Not looking on the price - it is reasonably discounted now :lol:
sure it got released when the xda2 did
http://www.ppcw.net/index.php?itemid=1916
tested aswell
it's big
it's ugly
it's monitor and video out is 2fps
it may not work with all CF microdrive disks
Thanx alot.
My main points of interest are the standby time and CFslot.
Thinking now.... :roll: :?: :?:
Well, glad to see you here! Actually SD cards are getting cheaper and cheaper so it is hard to find any major advantages of ugly CF-jacket for XDA. And as I remember you didn't sell your iPaq 2210. Don't forget that HP 4705 is coming. :lol:

You see guys, I've fund it to be not so ugly when took in hands, and even not so big, but...very, very expensive - more than 200 bucks...So,I go on thinking...
Hi Guys, I bought the Universal for quite some time now, and would like to do more advanced stuff with it. but I am kind of new to Rom flashing; I tried to find the threads to read, but there are just too much information on this web Forum(which is great thanks guys), and I can't seem to find the right Keyword to search, which Thread would you guys recommend me to read? or any main keyword I should search for ?
Thanks and have a very nice day guys.

Search the ROM threads...

It's all very personal, fraid you're just gonna have to read up and find which is the best for you.
Hi,
I currently have an Blue Angel, but this will apply to you as well:
If your Universal is working fine, DON'T START FLASHING IMAGES!
The truth is that you MAY end up with a brick.
If you want to do "more advanced" things, why not look at all the Freeware applications you can use? Today, i.e., I got my fingers onto a Universal and tested it with my SD-Card which contains Dosbox and Windows 3.0.
You know what? It ROCKS!!! VGA is absolutly cool and speed is fine.
Think of all the DOS-Games you could run.
This is just one suggestion, but really: don't change a running system.
You read about it and it will seem simple. But if something goes wrong, you will regret it for sure.
Cheers,
vma

Start with the wiki - the best way to prevent yourself from bricking your Uni. You should then read the forums - the perfect way to prevent yourself suffering what others have already suffered.....

thanks for the advice vma, but the thing is, my Univeral is a bit too slow when it run what it comes with originally, so I think I will find a way to back up the ROM and give it a try...
Man I reply so late, because I was choked when drinking water, so the water was splited on to the keyboard, then like space bar and some other keys doesn't work, and to make the matter worst.... I try to dry it with a hair dryer, but I was watching TV.... and in 1 min it melted my keys ... so certain keys are now "forever stuck" so I am currently using a mini keyboard I had... will get anoter standard keyboard soon, this mini keyboard is making me very tried
I hope you are referring to a regular PC keyboard and not to the keyboard of your Universal!!!
Have you tried the Registry-hack's and the section on how to optimize your Universal for speed?

Yikes! Although knowing flea-bay, it'd still sell!!
Just wanted to say since I've had my Touch HD I've had countless support from everyone on here, theres too many names to mention, but today, I received my Touch Pro 2 and will be leaving this forum... (only down the road though, 2 doors down I think).
Never been a better set of people working with a device and I thank each and everyone of you, especially the chefs and their support teams, without you my HD would be no where near as good as it is now.
Hopefully you will all be getting a Touch Pro 2 and coming to help me there, but until then, I'll only be in this forum in dribs and drabs helping where I can until I sell my HD.
Au revoir!

NICE... Congrats Pal. I will be seeing you shortly in that section too. I am waiting for T-Mobile to release that device for us here in the US so that we'll have the 3G capabilities .
But Touch HD would still be one of the top devices I have used.
I will chk out your reivew on the TouchPro (Rhodium) section if you have one.
Congrats on your new mobile.
I need a help from you if possible.
Iam also planning to buy a touch pro 2.
But, it will be really helpful for me if you can give me few details about your new phone.
1. Is it having the same yellowish tint as Touch HD screen?
2. Have you tested the out of box video playback ? is it the same as HD or any improvement (I mean some updates video drivers??
3. What about the battery life? (too early i know , but still)
Thanks in advance
Goodluck and congrats on your new device my friend...
have fun, moved thread to blackstone
But why do you leave this beautiful thin device THD and get this ugly fatty TP2?
Nice mate,
i wish you all the best there.
i wanted to get a TP2 but it was not yet released when i flushed my X1 so i got HD.
btw TP2 has a 0.2 inches smaller screen, can u live with that?
for me, i will not get a TP2 unless an external KB is essential.
best of luck

Haha, I know what you mean, but with this device being narrower and a bit fatter, it actually feels better in the hand. Plus I want a hardware KB, this has it where the HD obviously don't. Love both devices, can't fault either.

You don't really notice the difference, whats 0.2"!!! No seriously, you don't notice the difference but the screen does look a lot clearer than the HD for some reason, I thought they were the same. Seems more responsive too.
Has more on front too, nice to have a Start Menu button and a home button as well as the hardware Zoom slider, Front notificaiton light is always nice too

Will let you know these, haven't tested them as yet. Not sure what you mean about the yellowish tint?? Video playback I would imagine is the same as this is driver issue not hardware.
Battery life actually has a monitor on it from last full charge, so will let you know in next few days about that, fully charging it now so tomorrow will be day 1
Congrats on your new device!
Personally i prefer those 0.2" and a 3.5mm jack
Congrats on your TP2!! I'm doing the same once it arrives in the USA 7/22 for T-Mobile 3G!!
Thanks friend.
Waiting for your valuable reply

OMG don't wish to be rude, but you're actually congratulating somebody on buying a cell phone in the same way one would congratulate on the birth of a child. This is nuts!?

I was the same as you to be honest, a little bit pesemistic about the tp2 as I had my Blackstone, I didn't know what could be better, but I needed the hw kb.
To my amazement, the screen is clearer and more responsive, but don't get me wrong, if it wasn't for the hw kb, I wouldn't have changed.
Love both devices, just waiting for HSPL and roms to start flying about

Ok, again, not had chance to check video but will be doing that later today.
Battery.... A nice feature is that when you go into settings--power, there is an information tab at the end, which displays the time you have used it.
So far, my battery has depleated 11% (I'm on 89% left) with factory stock ram and so far I have...
19 hours, 10 minutes standby
41 minutes talktime
44 minutes device usage
Device usage is just when you have the device out of standby, whilst I've been doing this I've installed about 15 programs, set up Tom Tom, used Tom Tom for 10 minutes and also been playing with settings... So far I'm quite impressed.
I've also sent/received 32 text messages.
Hope this helps
Think I'll hold off purchasing any new phones until something comes along and blows my mind away. Unfortunately the TP2 didn't do this for me, but have fun anyhow.
@ nicelad_uk - Best of luck with your new baby. I hope you were well rested beorehand mate
Hello to all
I want to buy a new pda, cause my Diamond is getting slow, but i don't know witch one to buy.
I like Mega but i don't know if it's fast, or after buying i will regret it.
Please give me your feedback.
Thanks
MEGA
Hi, I also had diamond but its become slower and operating was boring.Then I bought MEGA and it´s fantastic!!!!Fast and nice.
but if you need something more from mobile, like vga graphic, auto focus etc then buy HD or something like this.
I was also thinking weather I should buy the Touch2 or not, so I went for it and am quite satisfied with it. The only bad thing about the phone is when you surf the internet the pages aren't displayed good until you zoom in, but overall it's a great phone with a long-lasting battery and a lot of capabilities
Wait until there HardSpl for the mega is released before you buy it. I do regret buying it atm. A WinMo Phone without custom rom support is not fun at all.
dont buy Mega yet... you will regret...

Yes, you have right
This phone is very fast, he has no unnecessary gadgets.
A lot of memory allows you to run multiple programs, this is very good.
I recommend this model.

I am keeping my 128Mb Uni too, just moved to Xperia with HD port ROM - TF3D etc. So yes, I will be popping in from time to time as well. My Uni will always be my Toy of the Year.... nevermind the year
Actually, I prefer reading my books and watching my movies on my Uni due to the screen size.
