Will there be 2 versions of the wizard?

I remember from a while back that there was 2 versions of the wizard. One was the one that we are seeing now as the qtek9100 and the kjam and there was one that looked like the apache(cdma version) but it did not have the aerial stub so it could not of been the apache. Does anyone know if there will be a different looking wizard being made that looks similar to the apache? I am quite sure I like the apache design a bit better but I am looking for a GSM device.

Do you mean this ???

I know what you mean , I remember seeing the thread somewhere when info was very scetchy. The pictures we saw if I have you right where the K-Jam or Wizzard and the Apache although minus the arial. The first shots I saw of these were like this . Saying that though Mobilefun.co.uk swear their K-Jam unit will be CDMA even after speaking to them and sending them the Imate spec sheet .. If so then it's the closest guarded secret this century.
The Apache has just been released on Sprint in the states .. You lucky things :lol: I think though the Apache is now a bigger device than was speculated .. Could be wrong though

yeah that is the one. i am really looking forward to the wizard since it seems to have everything i am after with the exception of built in GPS which i will sadly have to live without.
it seems like the units that are coming out are all in the qtek 9100 style which i am not too crazy about. i plan on buying a wizard the second it comes out but i would like to buy the latter version if possible. trouble is that i am not sure if i will be able to contain myself from buying the qtek 9100 once it comes out. especially since we have not seen any of the companies use the latter version as of yet. who knows when it is going to come out or even if it ever will.

I always thought the alternative styles were prototypes. I do remember seeing different versions in the FCC database but the only difference was that one had a camera, the other didnt (to make the phone acceptable in areas where cameras are forbidden).

It is Dopod 838

Big ROM and improve mobile signal.

What is the "code name" for O2 Atom Life?

Hi everyone,
Which countries is this available in?
I have not seen it in singapore yet.
Is it available in thailand. And if so how much is it?
If it is available I might ask my friend to buy as he is going to Bangkok this weekened.
Regards,
Mike.

It is available on the street in Hong Kong now. The retail price is HK$6680.

I think O2 Atom Life also named Appolo...

ya, it is distributed under different names in different regions

Not seen in Singapore, eh? Nope, I count 3 shops in SLS selling this... unit still looks like plastic, tho. <_<
$1400++ (hella prohibitive!), but it has everything you could possibly want. Wifi, 3G, FM Radio, "HUGE! Tracts of land..." you name it.

You can buy it here http://www.anythingonline.com.au/, it is cheaper than Hong Kong.

Sorry, the price is about the same as in Hong Kong. But you can place mail order here. http://phones.anythingonline.com.au/c481/category102

700-1500US in Thailand ... (seems like noone really knows a price ;-)
okay gps but not garmin ... ;-)

I finally brought this phone. It is very fast, a few initial comments from my side:
1. No doubt, big internal memory, I can install all app. to main memory.
2. GSM connect is not as good as 838 Pro, sometimes got no signal.
3. I tried install Mapking, but cannot start properly, other software seems no problem.
4. No smartdialing, which is for 3G phone.

Interesting model

Hi guys, I saw this interesting model, does anyone have it?

Sorry for previous post (now it's edited). I turned off image loading so i didn't see the image. Now i understand the question and no i never saw a g3 like this. I'm not sure if this is a real picture... look at the buttons... they are quite "strange"

You cannot say that for sure.... :/

I'm pretty sure I've seen this one before..
Going to do some research
Dympy.

Its not a G3 for sure, look at the touchwiz and even the interface is not the same.

I agree on that but the outside is all the same.... :/

could it be some indian version of the i5801?
http://www.priceindianow.com/samsung-i5801-galaxy-apollo-india-price/

that is a pre production model, those pictures were probably taken when they were doing a preview of the phone, before it was released to market.

Looks absolutely different. I can see Spare Parts, Java Me, Coverter, Dev Tools apps. These were not there when i bought the phone. Looks like a hybrid phone

Nope.
I have the Indian version......

Interface is definetly different..status bar, "touchwiz"....
And two homebuttons...maybe the one what we use as a home button isnt home button.
I dont get it, why isnt there normal touchwiz, we are using

Maybe it's chinese copy?

Its a prototype of the galaxy3...samsung decided to shed some of those buttons to make it look better and cut costs

Go to AliExpress and find yourself one of these (or equivalent):

Search for "Polo mk4" and make sure the model fits your car.
I would post some links, but as a new member here I am not allowed to yet (spam prevention).
I'd rather spend some extra money and get the newer more "expensive" models, with better prosessor, more RAM and Android 8.0 tho.
These will fit flush in your Polo mk4, no fascia needed.
Happy shopping!

Do u recommend this unit?
I found this u it online seems to be good to me but not proper i to specs an stuff, does this seem like it could last for quite a while an still be alright. I know the octacore is good if the cores are good enough and rgb of ram is great but is the processor good? Also buying from aliexpress an being in the uk will i get custom charges. Thankyou!!

I don't have this unit myself, but a similar one fit for Golf mk6. Very responsive and nice resolution on the screen.
You will have to expect custom charges when ordering from AliExpress, yes. But sometimes the sellers write a lower value on items, somteimes not..
You might want to check out Xtrons, Chinese manufacturer, but they have a UK-based store as well (if you want to avvoid customs). They have a player fit for Polo mk4, but it's £299 tho.
Still, that's cheap considering all the features you get.

You can search on Joying website:www.joyingauto.com,the VW unit is plug and play

Can someone please help me identify my device and guide my first steps?

Hi! I'm completely new to this as I just bought an old VW transporter that has this brand new, presumably Chinese, presumably Android, car radio device installed.
The documentation is scarce and I don't even have a name or reference for the device anywhere. The only "technical" part they mention is "how to change the boot logo" and they don't even give the proper 4 digits code to perform the change. Haha, I'm far from installing a clean Android on this
Could someone please help me figure out what is the device and guide me to the first steps of "jailbreaking" it? (USB key? Unmountit and plug it to my PC?).
Once I have this, promise, I will find my way on Google and try not to bother you too much
Please find a picture below, with the unique info screen I found.
Thanks a lot for your help!

Just by the looks of it this is ancient.
Looking at 4pda thread - it's Win CE and 7-8 years old. Get a new Android unit.

Thank you!.. even if it is bad news I just paid 160€ extra for it when I bought the car and I can't send it back. What Android unit would you recommend?

First check to see if there are any dedicated units for your car model. A dedicated unit will have the adapter frame and correct wire connectors, making the installation a lot easier.
Second, look for 6 to 8 GB RAM. Currently , the best units use the UIS 7862s octa-core processor and have QLED IPS screens. As for brands, I'd say go for a JOYING unit, they make good units and also have an actual customer support.
