How far can I go with my P4350 (used to be Dopod C800)

Dear all,
After 'accidentally' upgraded my oldie but goodie Dopod C800 to WM6 (P4350) yesterday, I'm becoming more and more interested in pushing my unit to reach its best performance
As I'm a total noob in this world, I seek your guidance to help me deciding which way to take next.
For those of you gurus who have the same device as i have, could you be so kind to recommend me the best mix for my baby
Wake up my little buddy, it's time for you to get out of the drawer and smell the fresh air
Thanks in advance!

Goodbye Hermes!

Dear all,
I want to thank all of the developers that kept the dream alive of being able to use our outdated device in this time of snapdragons and WP7. We had a good ride but it is time to move on... Recently I got a HD2 and I am experimenting on that (still can't get used to the lack of a hardware keyboard...). My last rom on the hermes was from my fellow countryman Ansar and I have to say that, personally, it was the best rom I ever tried, if he ever makes a lite rom, I might go back to hermes
Have fun people, and keep the dream alive. The Hermes is hard toy to brake...
Thanks
Jardan

Well this is wierd
Im going from a Touch Pro 2 back to a hermes !! (made redundant dont keep the phone )
and my wife lost our HD2
So Hermes it is
Not really worried it almost seems faster than my TP2 !!!!!

If you want my opinion, try Ansar's rom. it was very fast and stable. But to tell you the truth, I can not compare it with HD2, it is much faster than the Hermes. And becasue I use the hermes as a backup phone, for my second sim, everytime I look at the screen nowdays, it looks soooo small and outdated... dont get me wrong, I loved my hermes but you just can't compare the two devices...
If you want I can exchange your TP2 for my hermes!

it was a work phone and i was made redundant

I was joking mate. Anyway, really you should try ansar's rom. have fun!

Is it possible for windows phone 7 OS to run on Hermes?

No, never.
But you can skin your screen as al lookalike WP7, like this one:

maybe six more WP7-UIs are available, PointUi, ThrottleLauncher, etc.

so sad
I continue to use my

I'm looking at replacing my hermes but not sure what to go for????
HD2 or TP2?????
Or other???
Which would you guys say??

Start a poll to find out!
You can see how many threads there are which shows how many people are using the Hermes.
Ofcourse interest will decrease by time. I just purchased the Galaxy-S (android), but am still amazed but many features of the Hermes with winmo.

I've changed my phone since last spring, I needed a dual sim so I bought an Acer DX900, but sometimes I get out my hermes and I still play with it. I'll never sell it!

[Q] Planning to buy...

Hi, i have been using WM 6.5 and Android for quite a while (HTC TyTn II and LG Optimus One), i recently decided to try an WP7 phone... so Optimus 7 seems to be a good choice.
I just have one question, how many finger touches does it support?? i cant seem any info regarding this (or any info regarding this on any WP7 phone) other than it simply being listed as 'multi-touch'.
Thanks a lot... and sorry if its a stupid question but i cant seem to find the answer anywhere!!

The screen apparently supports more than 4, but the software is limited to 4 points of contact, and that is what you get with Optimus 7. There are many games in the Marketplace that demonstrate this. I must say, as a Optimus 7 owner, and having tried the other WP7 devices, the Optimus 7 probably has the most ... Optimal touch experience of them all ... HTC ones are far too sensitive.

Screen support up to 10 fingers , I don't have more fingers to try

thanks a lot... guess i will prob go with this phone.. but have to save up for a while..

I bought it unlocked on ebay for 165 euros!
http://cgi.ebay.de/LG-E900-OPTIMUS-...00625220083?pt=DE_Handy_s&hash=item2eb631e9f3

Wow for that price is incredible even in USD it comes to $238.82 according to Google. The best I could find in the ebay us site was in the $400 and $550 range!
Next time I'm hunting for a phone I'll come here and ask for advice.
Also, pachuau86 if you're planning on saving to buy a new phone why don't you wait for the new Nokia Windows Phone 7? They'll kick the ass of any WP7 to date so you better wait and see what the other brands will bring to the table, its all dual core now baby.
Google Nokia windows Phone 7 since I can't posts links yet due to being a noob.

This is my first wp7 phone and it is really good. Solid to hold and very good build quality. WP7 is very good and will get better with mango. If your in the UK try the expansys website i picked mine up from there brand new sim free for £185.

I don't know about any Nokia WP7s as those are rumoured NOT to be released in North America this year or early next year anyways ...
But ... if you are interested in this phone, I have it on good authority that the same body will receive and update, which includes the latest SoC (1-1.2Ghz from what I heard), as well as a front camera and gyroscope, with a better battery life and screen, called the LG E90X (Note that the 'X' refers to a digit between 5-9 depending on location of release) ...

thanks a lot for the replies... will save up and try to get this phone

Moving on..

The time has come for my u8800 and me, to take on different paths. I'm selling it today and i'm eagerly waiting for my SGSIII to arrive.
The only reason i started a new thread about it, is that i would like to thank from the bottom of my heart, all the developers that kept this phone active and solved all the problems Huawei couldn't be arsed to, including but not limited to: DZO, Stockwell, Blefish, FransiscoFranco, Genokolar & hcdrjacob (who did try to bring us CM7 despite all the hate he got from this forum and that a huge +1) and everyone else i accidentally forgot to mention. You guys are our "everyday heroes". You took a software-broken phone and turned it into a masterpiece.
That's all for now.
Thank you all

I'm in exactly same situation. We had a good run. Thanks to all the devs. Especially dzo, who made the best rom for ideos x5 in my honest opinion. Thank you very much.
Sent from my Nokia 3310 using sms

If you guys won't be using your phones any longe there's one guy that accidently was responsible for showing that our X5 could play FM. He's mikereidis and he did it blindfolded, because he doesn't own a X5, nor he can buy it in its home country.
If you can, send it one of your X5s and maybe the FM support can improve even more on our X5 and on other weird Tavuara phones.

Goodbye and thanks for all advice!

Just took delivery of a Galaxy S3. In some way, a sad day for me after a long sequence of great HTC phones, from the original XDA, the XDAs (my favourite phone for its time), the HD and lastly the HD2. Ive been a member of these forums for many years (my relatively new join date relates to a lost account/password) - I have found these forums invaluable for tweaks, fixs and improvements. Ill be heading over to the S3 forums soon.
I'm keeping my HD2 for now - particularly as I am a die hard MS reader fan (yeah I know!). Just need an unlock code which I am heading over to ebay to purchase
So goodbye HD2 and HD2 forums - wish you all well!!

eiy dont say good bye you can be Bi-phone
put WP7.8 on the HD2
