No it does not!
it has no G sensor and it doesn't have an FM receiver...otherwise it would be a diamond!
...But it does have a minisd slot, which the diamond doesn't have!!

I really think that the 3.5" screen on the Polaris is a mistake. I really think the Polaris is just an updated 3300 and has a 2.8" screen. If I am wrong, then I will be all over that thing.
How big is the dif in speed btwn the processors. ?
Could there be a "hidden" radio in the 3600 ?
What is Polaris ?

Ah ah ah...
one month ago I posted the same question on P3300 room and they covered me with insults...(use search facilities, you crying baby...)
I had the same doubt , I bought the P3600 and I am very happy with it

Thanks ! It was mostly the pros and cons that kept me awake....
Good to hear that you are pleased with it.
Anyone else that has a hint ?????
I went through the same thoughts and decided to go with the P3600.
Main reason were the slow processor even after overclocking (I used to own a Prophet and now a Wing), which really bugged me.
The P3600 appears to be quite a nice device, with the only drawback of the paint peeling issue. There are now new batches out and I hope these will have a fix to the paint problems.

I have one of the 'new batch' 3600's and I have not had any issues with paint peeling, I have a black one.
You won't go wrong, I love this phone. One of the better ones I have had and I have had a few.
3300 have better gps people say
The 3300 can get a fix quicker, especially when QuickGPS is working (a tool that uses your phones cell tracking to locate you, and send satellite data over GPRS) but once 'fixed' there is little difference. QuickGPS has a data cost, but the data is quite small. We have done some comparative tests with both devices, and on average, the 3300 is about 1 minute faster for a cold fix when stationary, and with a clear sky view.
The 3300 uses a 12 channel SirfStar GPS Chipset, and the 3600 an 8 Channel QualComm chipset, but there appears to be little advantage in the extra channels- you only need 4 satellites for a good fix. The SirfStar does have better cacheing, so if you go into a tunnel, it will retain something of a signal, but some GPS software now caches anyway, so not a major issue.
Other advantages of the 3600 are that it uses a sidemounted MiniSD card, rather than a MicroSD card inside the battery compartment. MiniSD is inherently faster, and is available in larger sizes, and the P3300's have had some big problems with corruption to the SD cards, possibly due in part to the location method.
And of course, the 3600 is a 3G/UMTS phone, while the 3300 only has GPRS/Edge.
If you like the 3300, just wait for the HTC Polaris. It is the SAME EXACT phone as the 3300 but with 3G and more memory. I might even buy the Polaris when it comes out and sell my Trinity.
Thnx to all.
Will get my 3600 tomorrow.
Now is the Q what software to install..........

well not really so unless the whole 3.5" screen is wrong
otherwise it's like a HUGE version of 3300
polaris also comes with a 3.0 megapixel auto-focus camera

Someone who works at HTC confirmed that it is QVGA w/ a 2.8" screen. They posted screen shots of the phone on HoFo.
Gps differences between 3600 and 3300. Take a look at this :

Anyone know what chipset the GPS is Sirf III or ???
Hi,
Built-in+GPS_module: Supported
GPSrotocol: NMEA 0183
GPS+Antenna: Internal antenna
Complementary_GPS-Services: Assisted GPS, QuickGPS
Navigation-Chip(set): Qualcomm MSM7201A gpsOne

starbase64
why they pulled the Sirf III i dont know, probably some stupid licencing issues from Qualcomm saying that you can use our chip but keep your mits off everything else, all or nothing, another case of corperate greed and a big f*** you to the user.
I really don't care what Chipset the Touch HD has as long as there is no GPS lag like the Touch Pro has.
gps chipset == qualcomm cpu
the reason why soo many use that
type of cpu is because it got gps, wifi, 3g on chip
which also mean the hardware performes pretty
much the same way as other devices with the same cpu
which would indicate that Touch HD would perform the same as
touch pro as they got the same cpu

I'm very anxious to discover whether the GPS has the same lag problems.
Looking carefully at posts about the Diamond and Touch Pro, it doesn't yet seem entirely conclusive whether the lag is due to hardware limitations of the Qualcomm chipset or if software is at least partially responsible.
Good GPS is a must-have for me. I'm used to an ETEN device which had truly superb GPS until the hardware failed!
There must be some Touch HD reviewers out there who have tested the GPS - surely ?
Yeah, this would be deal braeker for many of us... I need confirmation HTC did not fail again (Kaiser - drivers, Touch Pro - GPS, Touch HD - ...)
I bet that the Touch HD GPS will suffer the same lag problem like Touch Pro.
But, in this case, probably, I will be OK ... because I read that the lag problem will not happen if we use "external BT GPS".
I probably will just buy cheap external BT GPS
At least, there is a solution for the lag problem!

I wont put up with a 900 dollar handset with a faulty laggy GPS receiver..when clearly older devices like the Tytn II GPS works perfectly.
I suggest this thread should be marked "sticky" - it's very important to know if GPS works well before buying the device.

i second that, if GPS functions the same as on the Diamond this device wil be a no go for me .
^ we can only know this if someone runs a GPS application on it in real.
It would be a miracle since Qualcomm gpsOne has always underperformed SiRFstarIII based on some head to head comparisons I saw on GpsPasSion, Kaiser, i780 versus Eten x600 here http://www.gpspassion.com/fr/articles.asp?id=175&page=8 - even worse on foot :-(
TYTN II is "GPS heaven" compared to problems with Touch Pro/Diamond.
I'm impatiently waiting for the real owners to check GPS out.
First users report there is no gps lag!

I Agree.
And for testing if one of the lucky ones with this device could share the GPSDriver for test with Touch Pro would be great.
agps question
Hi all,
This is not my area cause of asking
Is it possible use agps without net and phone access as outer gps (for example bt gps) ?
Thx.
it's official GPS lags!!!
slash gear's review claims the gps chipset suffers the same lagging issue as touch diamond and pro.
http://www.slashgear.com/htc-touch-hd-slashgear-review-part-2-0721942/
the only way around this is for the software to anticipate the lag, they haven't tried TOmTom yet. but this would CERTAINLY mean the fix would be targeted for this handset (gps chipset) only. i dont know if any gps software company has plan to release a product only for a specific handset. most of them release product for a general platform (ie. win mobile). and those products doesn't take the lagging issue into account
Is there a magnetic sensor in this unit so as to be able to use GPS, compass? Had one in my late Nexus.

Hi, folks. I have been wanting to upgrade my Moto G2 with the Moto G4. The performance specs are much nicer, but it appears that the Moto G4 does not have a magnetic compass. Specs-wise both have an accelerometer and gyro, but the Moto G4 lacks the proximity and compass that the Moto G2 has. Will this affect my caching? Thanks.
It shouldnt most of the geocaching programs uses gps.
The Moto G4 does have GPS...
I don't think the lack of a magnetic compass would matter for that. Like Rempala said, GPS should be what you need and I've found the G4's GPS to be very good. I use my phone for a golf distance app and the G4 updates faster than my old G3 did and much much faster than the 2nd gen ever did.
There moto g4 has really good GPS, however does not have a compass. For Pokemon go it works great... Just does not auto justify the map due to not knowing what direction you are facing. However the GPS is very good at quickly determining the direction you are traveling. At this point it would be very dependant on the application you are trying to use.

I used it for geocaching today and it worked fine. I guess it really depends on the program you use.

So, in Pokemon Go if I was to be standing still my character would be facing north, right? If I was walking east would my character be walking east and if I stopped would he still be facing east or turned back to facing north?

If you walk west, it faces west. It only defaults to north it you stop

I use zwift with the g6 and sensors: heart rate, cadence and polar speed and go big but i also know that the g6 is amt + compatible. However, for the polar go safe.
YES :good:
i tested today the belt Polar H10 and it works fine :good::good:
but it costs more
