He's not selling the "rom" at all, they are selling a upgrade service!!
This is EXACTLY the same as paying somebody to install/setup linux OS or linux software for you. What these dumbass's are buying is the service of getting somebody else to install it for you.
Also, use the search button.

What is the cheapest Advantage found in the market?

what is the cheapest one? in Dubai, it has been introduced for 1350 USD which is too much. anything closer to 1100 USD from any markets?
P.S. i saw the black one yesterday, for the first time, and the baby is gorgeous. the pictures you see and videos of the devicde dont do it justice IMO. it looks smaller than i thought and it looked sleek and beautiful!
thanks!
The device you saw in Dubai.....was the ROM arabic enbaled? Or it was only english?
Keyboard was also having arabic letters?
Thanks in advance.
it was english. the arabic version will not be introduced until the end of this month.
the upgrade will be offered for free. im not sure how they will approach the keyboard issue though!
me in Saudia....I purchased here for SR-5000 or USD-1300.
It is in english....I tried the arabitizer software (imignet) of universal and P3600 to alteast make it recongnize arabic and have a arabic virtual keyboard on screen....But unfortunately it didnot work....I think it is not compatible with the Advantage's ROM.
hmmm..
perhaps htc will release some updated roms soon. the guy told me it is going to be available on their website and on a CD!!
not sure but how often do you use the physical keyboard? isnt the virtual one more usable in general?
it looked sweet though. bu ttoo expensive. perhaps the price will drop a bit once the nokia E90 is released (end of this month from what i have been hearing).
for me its a choice of of the following:
-advantage
-E90
-E61i
E61i has a very favorable price tag which i may got for eventually. but the black advantage looked really sweet!
yes, virtual key board is awesome....and arabic on it would be just perfect....I do not carry keyboard...only advantage...
Well I also thought about E90...but I was unable to make comparison....because one is symbain and another runs windows-5...there are thousand things that we can run on WM OS....that we can not on symbian....E-90 will only play movies in MP-4 and rm version (this sucks).
It is having the same GPS chip and software that N95 is having and tell you what, GPS on N95 is hopeless and a major disappointment.
I heard the way we play on multiple programs on Advantge, it is not possible very effectiely on E-90 because of low speed process and RAM. There is no TV output as well....and Mirco soft office compability and syncronization with E-90 is horrible as well.
So for me....HTC Advantage was the only choice and I am happy with it I just miss arabic on it though

If you were to purchase one.I would say get it from David.As of right now this is the lowest price found :http://www.mobileplanet.com/p.aspx?i=147445
Total is :$1,050.00.David will match the price of the cheapest like i stated before.And if you need accessories for the X7500 ,if it is on mobile planet he will sell the merchandise to you cheaper(alot cheaper!!)Than what you find on their site.So make that plunge!!!

I actually was going to purchase from them,because they state on their website that if you find merchandise cheaper somewhere else,they will match the price.The only thing is that i could not locate a phone number,address etc. anywhere on the website.Only an email address.When you are transferring that kind of money,you would like to speak to someone on the phone or have your nerves be at ease by knowing for a fact that it is not a scam.Same complications arose when the outbreak of the JASJAR arose.There were several people making ficticious websites scamming people.They also were price gouging people(charging 70.00 for shipping).So for me i like to speak to someone on the phone as well as be able to know that they are well established.No offense my friend.

Agreed. That's why I emailed them asking for the number and got a prompt reply with it. I wouldnt have ordered if I didn't have a number. I think the guys name Stan. Hope this helps.
even though it's still expensive
do u think The price will drop down a bit?
I got my JasJar when it was released about 1150$ and to be honest I don't want to pay this price on a Pocket PC again

and it is not stolen came directly from att a month ago let me know
I'm thinking of selling mine. I'm on Tmobile and I miss my Sidekick... Message me
youve got a message!
come on all you people who have upgraded to the kaiser!
there are a lot on ebay, if you want in person that is a diff thing.
But even i found a lot of buyers in person
i would have jumped on the kaiser as well if tmobile had there 3g act together, but im going to be skiping it i guess, until 3g is set in stone and something like the kaiser comes out with vga, reason for vga is that its really great for browsering from what i saw qvga vs vga... it does likee pretty damn cool, i also want some more beef on the cpu and esp gpu, i feel that kaiser is just a little bit of a step up and not worth the upgrade, for that price tag, if doing a contract and getting a great deal then yes or if having a lot of money burning in your pocket that or if your job req the use of pocketPC/pda heavily then ya of course you want the latest and greatest
Also interested
Also interested , even more if it already has Elf's Crackberry. New employer insists on BES .

An easy capability to take the box vanilla would also be useful.
Best regards,
i also used craigslist.org great site for local buy/sell etc... you can also use some other forums... im not sure if were allowed to post other PPC/PDA forums here? but there is a big popular one as well that has a buy/sell forum... which i think is a must... because you get to know ppl here and would trust a times them more so then a random person on ebay or so.

Selling my wing soon, question for rom builders

So, Im probably going to be upgrading phones in the next month or so. The wing has treated me well, but its time for something a little more sleek. I am most likely I going to sell it on ebay, and I have a question for all the people who make roms. Would anyone object to me including a copy of their rom(s) to go along with my phone when I sell it. Im not trying to make money off you guys. I just want to be able to provide whoever buys it a truely useable piece of equipment. I don't believe thats what you get with Tmo's stock rom. I dont believe in trying to profit on other's work when it was provided to me for free, so I wanna see what you guys think.
Thanks

i dont think that would be a problem since you are not taking the device and saying that you made the rom but i would contact the chef through a pm and see if he would object also post this in rom development you would get more of a professional response
later
I don't think the cooks would have a problem with it... but I'd say include this website along with the pertinent Rom information when you sell the device.
Ok ship it for 50$ more than you wanted without my rom... and sent it to me via paypal. then you can take ITsPapaBlackWeather on it!!
hahahaha

FREE: my old Universal as i've upgraded.

Yes i'm giving away my old Universal.
i'll even help with shipping
i've upgraded to the TOUCH HD, and want to leave my Uni to someone that could benefit.
the way i figure it, i've loved it since i had 3 years ago and if it wasn't for the hard work of the cookers who cracked the updates and even WinMo6, i would have been a lot less happy.
they're very responsible for a lot of the productivity and fun i've had along the way, which i've payed forward. now this is a little direct payback .
The forum members have been great support too, and this community has been a constant source that fuels the evolution of our Uni's.
Included is :
1) HTC Universal G3 (very good condition)
2) 2gb SD card
3) USB to Mini-USB (for data and charging)
4) Tomal's 8.2 ROM (excellent)
5) 2 stylus' (replacement for the original i wore out!)
6) replacement battery (bought 2008, 1600MaH. original wore out)
*pics upon request*
I'd like it to go to one of the cookers that may need an new/extra Uni for testing, so that it can help with their efforts in supporting the rest of the Uni lovers here.
if there are no takers from any of the cookers, i will happily leave it to anyone else that wants it
now, how do you get it? simple.
for ONE WEEK i invite any cookers to PM me or post here their interest here in a free Uni.
if no cookers want it, then i'll accept interest from anyone else that cares to have ask for it.
p.s.
my partner upgraded to a Samsung Omnia, if anyone wants a free Nokia 7710 give me a prod
I'll take both, cover shipping, and give you something for your troubles if you u have them.
-Mc
I am very interested!
Hope you consider this request
%Thanks in advance
some people already PM'ing and posting here.
i'll keep the option open for a single week to let more prospective people get a chance as i want the devices to go to the best person for the greater good.
all people responding are automatically "on the list" to be chosen.
happy bidding (wait, wrong website)
greeting from hong kong
looking for replacement for my uni. my uni RIP need to rewrite boot loader
first i have to say that you must be the kindest soul in the human race to want to give your handsets FOR FREE and not sell them on ebay..
and second becouse i loved it,becouse i admired it and becouse i cant live without a touch screen and i want it like mad.. PLEASE SEND ME THE NOKIA
cheers.
ps
i live in london
well i believe the small amount of money i could sell it for on Ebay (a few hundred dollars AU) and how i could invest that much money, compared to some that can actually use a free device for the greater good is no comparison for me.
there's an Ebay sale HERE where the person has a great offer for a complete Uni with accessories, for a reasonable price.
seriously the value of a few hundred bucks means little to me compared to the value of the device in the best hands.
think of it like:
*giving $300 to a starving stranded man on an island.....or giving him a $50 picnic hamper.
*or, a wealthy person giving $10 to someone in need, compared to a poor person giving $10 to someone even more in need.
there are many energy forms of value, depends who you're relating to and how. that much money in my life isn't worth much, those devices in other lives could mean a lot.
So there's no loss for me, i've already gained enormously from the device and i already have a replacement. i have an efficient upgrade.
someone can benefit a free device/s and gain enormously. an efficient upgrade too.
just sharing the energy

well consider yourself on the list simply by your interest
i'm glad there are people wanting the Nokia, i thought it would be difficult to find interest as it is a phone that not many people liked when it came out.
i'm happy these devices will goto good homes

Hello, that's a very generous thing from you, there should be more people like you out there
I would like to have your UNI, but reading the forums here I saw theseas's posts about being scammed by shakal007, so it seems he lost his UNI. I don't know, but maybe he could get a replacement by you If he wanted, of course....

Put it in bootloader mode. You can see small note at the bottom of the screen, if it starts from 1, then its G3. If it starts from 2, then its G4.

HD2 Windows & Android dual boot

Hey guys, I'm new here and new to andoid. I've had a jailbroken iPhone since iPhones could be jailbroken and I got bored and decided to get an android. Did some research made a craigslist posting and this is what I ended up with - a brand new HTC HD2 for $100. Now I have a todo list.
Unlock
Install Android
Set up dual Boot
Whatever else you think I should do?
Okay now, I'm not a newbie to this kinda stuff but I just wondered what I should know going in. I did some research on how to install android and how to set up the dual boot app and it all seems rather simple. Haven't looked up unlocking yet but I hear that's easy with android as well. Thoughts? Comments? Thank you
Did some research thinking it may be easier to do a NAND Android only? Problem is, videos and tuts I find are 6-10 months old and idk what is relevant...

Ok man I will help you out here. Here is a link to member MSkip's great guide to installing a NAND Andriod ROM to your HD2. It has all the links to HSPL and MAGLR that you need and it is very detailed. Go check it out, I even think it is a link to a good video there as well. Hope this helps man.

I got it for $100 by making a post on craigslist that I anted an HTC phone for $200 and he offered it to me for $100 because it was missing the battery, battery cover and usb all of which I got on ebay for a total off $22 so $122 total. Sold my iPhone 4 32GB 4.2.1 OS with untethered jailbreak on ebay for 683 call it 575 after fees and made about 450 while getting my android phone and at ATT I get a phone upgrade every year because I have 5 lines so in July I'll get a new 64GB iPhone 5 for 299.99+tax which comes to 320.99 so I am essentially switching out my iPhone 4 for an HTC HD2 + iPhone 5 64GB and making approximately 100. I'm lowballing the hell out of the estimates too.
I will also mention that I had my post on craigslist for 2 months and a lot of crappy offers prior to this event. If you have the time and money just make a lot of "looking for X" ads on craigslist and be patient. Just got a text to buy a new iPhone 4 for $400. Update. Jailbreak. Sell. Make $100 easy in a day.
Craigslist is full of people who need money quick for one reason or another and their loss can easily be your gain But this is so far off topic at this point and in this location and I think I have explained with plenty of depth.
