Hello Guys, ive been searching using google and this website but i couldnt really find what i needed so i decided to post a thread, sorry in advance.
I just got my HTC TOUCH PRo 2 yesterday.
It came with Windows 6.1. How can i upgrade to 6.5?
Also where do i download free apps, games and stuff. Ive searched but it seems like you have to pay, I'm a bit confused since i'm new to HTC. Any help will greatly be appreciated. Thank you

THIS is a real good place to start for upgrading your rom. Do a google search fro PPC Freeware and you will find apps.

Or, Wingster helps streamline the proccess:
How to Flash: http://thewingster.com/howflashtp2rom.aspx
ROM's: http://thewingster.com/tp2gsmroms.aspx
check the sticky on Rhodium themes, applications and software. or just click on my sig where it says "skyler17" for some free apps also
If you're wanting to upgrade via an official ROM, T-Mobile hasn't provided a 6.5 ROM for the TP2 yet

alright i installed one of the roms. But i wanted to know are those the only applications.
Like does the ht touch pro 2 have the games programs and stuff that g1 has or no. G1 has a lot of fun games, apps and stuff. I cant find much for this phone
Or is there anway to make this phone similar to the andriod OS?
Have a look @ SPB Mobile Shell 3.5 It's a Android Lookalike

Looks too sick. Any idea where i can get this from?
this forum is the best source for apps. Android doesn't have as many programs but it seems so since they're all gathered in one place.

There's thousands of more apps, outside of Wingster.
Check out sites like 1800ppcfreeware.com (I think thats the right address)

It's not a "Wingster ROM".....
Wingster only provides access to the ROM's, in an easy to use format. I haven't created any of those ROM's. Soo.....
About your question, you can install ANY app developed for Windows Mobile. Just because you have a custom ROM, doesn't mean a thing, since it's still Windows Mobile Operating System.
So, visit http://www.1800pocketpc.com/ and get yourself some free awesome apps!!!

Because your icon will appear as "H" now.
3G = H.
So whenever you see the "H" up there, that means you're on the fast 3G. It's all right, it's just a different icon You still get as fast, or possibly faster download speeds.

I'm still in 2 minds about Augmented reality. Is it just a gimmick, or can it truly be used for more than advertising?
http://wmpoweruser.com/?p=2371 <- a bunch of students have made a WinMo framework for it, but no links other than videos, thats the nearest I can find.

Have you noticed the new PC android market?
http://market.android.com/
Tell me your opinion!
I'm not sure I see the point, if all it does is use a qr code to direct your phone to the market to install the sofware.
It's a little bit stupid, for my opinion xD
agreed, useless....
from what I understand is you can set it t push automatically,I havny looked at it yet...

Almost....
I think it's quite brilliant. If I'm in front of my computer anyways, I find it easier to use the web market to browse apps.

It uses over-the-air installing. Simply click Install on the web market, and it'll start installing on your phone automagically.
Can't see how another option is a bad thing
still no proper sorting option like best rated, latest, most downloaded etc...

Is not 100% done.. wait for it
Hey guys,
I was wondering if there is any sort of way to have apps open in windows instead of opening on the entire screen. I for some reason remember seeing something like this a while back but I don't know if I'm just having created memories or if I actually saw it.
Thanks for any help
Yea there is some company that tried to market it to OEMs for gingerbread a while back I believe. I haven't seen much recently on this accept that the ipad has a hack for jail-broken devices that allows this feature, so considering the floating apps android already supports and androids superior multitasking it should be possible if some really awesome devs work it into a ROM of find an incredible mod for stock ROMSs. This has always interested me so hopefully we can find how possible it is and maybe someone could get it done.
Edit;
Found the article on this, not as old as I thought, but it is still on an older version of Android.

Thanks for your reply. I was hoping it was already implemented somewhere. Maybe we will see it in the future of this device
There is an app for this?

Hope this helps mate, also if you give it a go, perhaps let us know how you get on with it?
Thanks

same here mate(uk)
Yea, I have the overscreen browser and aircalc calculator, I had to sideload the browser from my transformer though as the nexus is unsupported. But I would still like to see a mod or ROM that allows this for all apps, much like this mod for the ipad.
