Looking to buy a Tilt

Well, it's official. I trashed my Tilt. I dropped it in a bucket of fresh oil that i was using to soak a set of lifters for a motor I am building and didnt realize it for at least an hour or so. Now it looks like I have a 70's lava lamp in the screen. It does boot, but no response via the screen and it seems to be flickering the backlight. Before anyone asks, yes it was synthetic and no, I have no idea how I did it. Oh, and I found a cure for the sticky keyboard keys. Mine are smooth as silk but who knows if they work or not. It's hard to see past the lava bubble of oil trapped in the screen.
Does anyone have a Tilt for sale or know of someone who does?
Thanks guys and yes, if you can't laugh at yourself who can you laugh at?
Oh and the funny thing about it is that everyone that sees it says it would be awesome if you could buy one that had the lava in the phone like mine does now. However, I think they want it to work and really dont want me to install the lava for them.

If anyone has an extra Tilt they want to get rid off. Depending on the Price I might buy it from you. Also, I'm Thinking of adding this to the Kaiser FAQ Wiki.
Q: I Dropped my Kaiser in a bucket of Oil and now The Touchscreen doesn't work What should I do?
A: Buy a new one. Or you can try and have the Screen replaced.

I've got one, but I want an iPhone... :gasp:

It sucks. My 5 yr. old had for about a year now. So you can guess what it's like. Here's the best part, I had to take my kids phone. God, I'm an ass for that. I guess I could give him my new "lava" phone as a replacement for his razr.

Eh?
This message is too short!

One hell of a way to make your keyboard nice and smooth. Take a look on ebay of CL.

I have two tilts one is listed on ebay right now.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&Item=120252716998&Category=38331
The other I have not listed. Check it out.

I just got a tilt from AT&T for very cheap. Go to wireless.att.com and buy a refurbished one. They are FREE with 2 year agreement!! Here's the catch... you need to only keep the phone on AT&T for 30 days then pay a $175 Early Termination Fee and the phone is yours for the $175 + $40 or so for the first months service!!!! I just got mine this way and it's perfect... it was as good as brand new looked like it was never touched before!

I appreciate the offers, but ebay is not the solution. I don't care if the phone is locked or unlocked. I am more than compitent enough to unlock the phone myself. Also, just because the phone is unlocked does not make it worth more or less than the locked phone in my book. $500+ for a tilt is just not an option. The money is not the issue, the value of the phone is. XDA store has the phones for $224.99 for those with an already existing account. Why would I pay more than that?
However, thanks for the offers guys. The offers are very much appreciated.

Man, don't you read the manual on your new toys????
You DO NOT need to lubricate the Tilt Hinges people!!!!
I'll see if I can find anyone here wanting to get rid of it. Actually I may even, need to see when the T3 will be out though.

I deserve that. Still, i think i have found the cure for the "sticky" keys.
Side note, seems as though everything seems to be working again. It did trash a battery as it wont pewr with it installed. However, the "lava" bubble is gone, the sound is no longer garbled, the touch seems to be working and as far as i can tell everything is back to functioning. The only issue I am seeing now is that there is some SLIGHT discoloration to the background of the screen. Who knows, it may work fine after all. I am still in the market though for a new or refurb, either way.

i just happen to be selling one..

Tilt vs Centro Vs Pantech Duo

OK.
So I've been trying to decide which phone to buy for a few months and it has finally come to a head because my Cingular 2125 (Faraday) has finally broken and I'm stuck with using my incredibly old SPV C500 from the UK (aka HTC Typhoon).
Which is best? Tilt, centro or duo?
My concerns with the tilt are the size of the thing and also the tilting mechanism. It just seems a bit flimsy to me and I'm going to want it to last for 2 years.
Recommendations anyone?

ROFL!!!! OMG Ouch my Side. Ow Ow Ow. Pantech Duo.... LOL!
As for the Tilt, I'm going on 9 months and my Tilt is still as strong as when I got it. I also made it tighter by getting a Hard Case from Sedio.
But if you really want I pretty looking Palm device. You could buy the Centrino.

pollock, my wife has/had the Pantech Duo. THEY SUCK! She absolutely hates it. She hates it so much that she is willing to pay the $175 contract cancellation fee just so she can get a new phone. That's pretty bad. I have no input on the Centro. My Tilt is freakin' awesome. I want the Touch Pro myself but the Tilt is by far, hands down, without a doubt, second to none the very best phone I've ever had! Bar none.

scratch the pantech duo...I have both the centro and the tilt and if you don't mind the video problems then i suggest the tilt...

I agree with what's said above...the Pantech Duo blows!!! My wife also has one, and although she sounds fine when I talk to her on my tilt....the few times I've talked on her Duo the person on the other end of line sounds like they are in a barrel or something. Very hollow-sounding crappy speaker.
The Tilt is the 3rd WinMo phone I've owned and it's the best to date. I use the gps at least once a week (TomTom has never steered me wrong), the camera is pretty good for pics (it's replaced my Sony 3.2mp and my Kodak 5mp cameras)...however video is very sluggish and choppy in low-light situations, Audiomanager works pretty good to stream music over bluetooth to my Pioneer headunit in the Xterra.
I must say, you pretty much have to be willing to do a lot of reading about how to hack/reprogram a WinMo phone in order to be happy with it. They are all extremely buggy and need attention. For example, I can flash a new rom and set everything up....have it running great for a few weeks to a month, then out of the blue things start to crash and not work anymore. You just have to be willing to mess with it a lot. It almost becomes a hobby flashing roms and reconfiguring your WinMo phone.
With that being said, I'm still very happy with it and all the functions it can perform. I also want the HTC Touch Pro. In my opinion you should wait for it. Faster, better interface, video output, and supplied working video drivers.
I heard a rumor it's coming to ATT this fall? (fingers crossed)

I had Centro before Tilt and I can safely say that Centro's battery life is very crappy. Keyboard keys are very tiny for many users, they weren't for me tho. Only thing I missed about Centro was threaded SMS and it has been solved since WM 6.1.
Centro doesn't have any Wifi or GPS either.

The other 2 phones don't even compare.. And how does the tilt seem flimsy, mine works just was good as the day I bought it in Oct.
I just got back from Vacation with my Tilt and I think I will write a review of how it performed in Vegas. You will see, oh yes you will see.

Thanks for all your replies thus far.
As for feeling flimsy, I don't know, I just felt like the tilting mechanism was not very strong and I was worried that it would break.
I have searched the net quite extensively though and have not read any reports of that happening so if y'all are finding it reliable then I won't worry about that aspect of it.
I'm glad I could make so many people so happy with the suggestion of a Pantech Duo... a little laughter does a body good!
So how many people think I should hold out for a touch pro?

The pantech is a toy compared to the power of a fully operational tilt.
Also, did you actually mess with a Tilt or a dummy?

I had a tilt for a few days... had fun doing some mods, enjoyed walking around with the GPS showing me where I was so I didn't have to look at the street in front of me
A phone for me is a huge decision, I only buy one every 2-3 years and I use it more than I use virtually anything else so I want to make sure I get the right one.
I have had HTC phones for the past 6 years and they have never let me down so...

the centro isnt a 3g phone and its a joke on the internet.. also have you ever seen the keyboards on those its unusable to me its so small.. the pantech duo has call quality issues amoung other things pantech doesnt make good regular phones but they just want to jump in the pda arena with the big dogs and try to make a splash.. they are garbage.. BTW i keep up on the phones i work for ATT and we dont sell a phone that compares to the tilt/kaiser.. maybe the 3g iphone in an aesthetic sense..looks nice doesnt perform anywhere near the tilt/kaiser

Thanks Carpenter.
Working for AT&T, have you heard anything about the Touch Pro?

AT&T does not tell their employees anything, I keep calling reps asking for the release of 6.1 and all of them complain AT&T doesn't tell them. So if Carpenter knows something about the Touch Pro, he or she must have googled it. AND YES THE TILT IS BY FAR THE BEST PHONE.

hes right.. lol

Well guys, thanks for all the advice.
I really want to go for a tilt and have been holding out for walmart to bring their expanded inventory of stock back online in the hope that they will carry it again (Walmart are by far the cheapest place I've found for upgrades).
It looks like they are no longer carrying the tilt though. They previously had it for $199 with no rebates and no data plan requirements.
I am therefore going to have to go for the centro which walmart are doing for the princely sum of $0.00 for upgrades in my area. Even if it is only half as good as the tilt, it has to be a bargain when it costs nothing at all!
I hope I'm not too disappointed with it!

My Kaiser/Tilt from ebay (Are all Kaisers like this?)

Alright here are some key things I need to fix on my "excellent condition" kaiser..........
I apologize in advance as I need to vent a bit But any help/advice would be much appreciated.
1. Battery life is pretty bad, lets say if I leave just the screen on, it drains about 1-5% per minute. Meaning I have to keep it plugged in whenever I am not using it. (I have SPB Shell which is supposed to drain batteries a bit more... Can't be this bad though...)
2. Camera does not function whatsoever, all I get is a neat black screen with a laggy camera interface for some reason. (Previous owner flashed to WM 6.1, possible cause?)
3. I think I've had about three successful calls in around 2 weeks of using the phone, every other call it appears I have answered it, but I hear nothing and neither does the other person. At this point I reboot and try to call the person back, so I only use the Kaiser for texting. (Also due to the flash perhaps?)
4. No idea how to work the GSP, so far it only works when I have a wifi connection with google maps (no data plan) and when it does it only give me a very rough general location, basically it shows me that I'm somewhere in my neighbourhood. Don't know if there is a standard program included (without monthly fees) or I have to find 3rd party software, or pay monthly fees for the one included which I'm not going to do.
Other problems....
5. The sliding hinge is very loose, the gap between the screen and keyboard when slid closed is at least 1mm wide normally.
6. The tilting has a hard time staying tilted, I always keep a finger behind the screen and the back of the keyboard.
7. Dpad & face buttons are loose and can slide around a bit.
8. The screen orientation gets confused fairly often and stays in landscape mode, requiring reset.
9. The AT&T animated bootup logo is <expletive>. I reset the Kaiser very often from crashes, dead calls, wrong orientation, broken camera, and dead batteries and the bootup animation very cleverly include sounds so everyone around can hear me reboot my piece of <expletive> 7 times a day even though I have it set to mute.
10. I am very disapointed how MS still has such a hard time making a proper os suitible for a mobile phone and just how little they have improved since my old WM2003se phone and Dell Axim, they clearly have the most experience yet they still cannot see how lame their OS really is compared to the... sigh... iphone, get your act together MS... Please? Keep your superior compatibility and excellent user created/custom community but please, please, ditch the lame archaic UI, its that easy. The real problem I have is that even all the fancy mods in the world cannot hide how ugly and user unfriendly this windows mobile OS is, heres hoping WM7....
11. And I thought my HTC Magician was a large phone..........

You Poor Guy
Wow that sucks for you, sounds like not only did the flashing of the rom was bad or a bad rom(unfinished), and like the phone has been taken apart and was not put together correctly. My tilt is great I got WM6.5 and the new SBP Shell 3.0, No problems here at all. You need most likely depending on your experience is to take it apart and tighten all screws make sure the camera is plugged in and sound like the dpad buttons might need some super glue to hold the frame (of the buttons) to the case.
Then just go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=433835
when your done go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=378

Try a Hard Reset so you can start clean and go from there.
And remember

It sounds like the camera and call issue is caused by an incorrect ROM / raido match. Try flashing a new ROM and radio meant for eachother. For the loose parts, find a disassembly guide, A T5, T6, and 00 screwdriver and take the phone down so you can retighten the mechanism.

hmm thanks for all the help! looking at the rom/radio forum, how exactly do you decide which rom or radio to go with? seems like there are so many to choose from, I feel like such a noob even though I have flashed my ds and my old axim before i'm not entirely sure what these roms are, pre loaded/updated os's or something??
I agree though it looks like a bad rom/radio, Ill see what I can do about that and the loose parts...
Yeah this is the first time I got burnt with ebay, sucks cuz i had a few options but i went with the seller with the best communication as the others weren't replying, then i finally got a reply from a cheaper phone that seemed to be a much better choice hours later, after that i had a bad feeling and unfortunately it came true... oh well, this phone is a lot fatter and heavier than i hoped, i dunno i swore to get a smaller phone than my magician... meh either way i'll make do with what i have, sigh... thanks again.

most 'cookers' will mention which radio is best.

Worst phone you've ever used?

Doesn't matter how old. What was the worst, and why?

The Ericsson A1018s.
Why?
For one simple reason - the keypad. Holy mother of all that is holy, the keypad on this phone SUCKED. It was virtually unusable, typing a message would take an eternity because the keypad felt cheap and awful and the input was SO SLOW it was unbearable. It'd take forever for characters to appear on the screen and half the time it wouldn't even recognize your touches. It was one of those scenarios where you would press the button harder and harder til your fingers bled even though it made no difference.
Thank god I don't think I actually owned this phone myself, believe it was my dads for a time who only used it for calls.
The aerial was probably the biggest I'd ever seen on a phone pre-2000, but was kinda cool. It had a sharp point at the bottom of the aerial if you removed it which you'd never get through airport customs in 2010.
This would have been a cool little mobile if it wasn't for the keypad. They even gave you 3 coloured clip-on fronts.
This phone was also called the 'coca cola' phone to some people as I believe Coke had a competition to win this phone on collecting a million ringpulls or something.
A girl I quite fancied bought one after her Motorola got stolen too, it took her years to reply to my texts which made it frustrating to flirt with her even though I had a usable handset myself! Very unfair!
So f**k this phone! What's your worst?

SmS2 ... coincidentally i happen to have used exactly this one...and it was also my Dads passed on to me when i came at the age of using mobile which was 18 yrs at that time ....
but considering the time it was launched..it was a nice phone... with some cool features..
One thing i still remember is that it had the option of switching to line 1 and line 2 even when their was one SIM slot...may be operators that time thought later on thay would provide this option on a single sim
Even the antenna used to work when we removed the extension and i the add on tacky Vibrator had to be purchased separately
Why i liked it...i cud be used as a brick at the time of emergencies

LOL - I kind of have a soft spot for it too. I like all of the oldskool GSM phones really, very durable and, well, phonelike! Motorola M3788 was my first, probably the easiest 0-9 keypad style phone for texting I ever had. Could never see myself going back to one of those though now I'm spoiled by Qwerty, Swype and the like.
Simpler times when the only worry you had was how the HELL you'd afford to keep the thing topped up. No worrying about compatibility, roms, OS's and all of the other stuff we've become accustomed to needing!
Wait a minute, I bought an HD2 for an easier life. BRB - checking my attic.

All my cellies b4 da G1 sucked lool. Specially maa Razr.

Luckyly I did not buyed and sold after 2 days usage

Really can't put into words how bad it was.....

iPhone or more like iPhail.....

it was also the iphonie for me.

Reception was awful and it weighed a tonne!!

So my phone is off for repair, because the screen is unresponsive on the right hand side.
Can't believe it.
Carphone Warehouse
woman: "so the screen is unresponsive?"
pause
woman: DROPPED MY FU*KIN PHONE ON THE FLOOR, ABOUT 1METER AND HALF DROP!!!!
woman: "so where is it unresponsive?"
long pause, while i was thinking to say "well the whole FU*KING SCREEN NOW!"
me: "just along the right hand side"
woman: "have you got a phone for the meantime?"
me: "ye"
in my head: "ye, my 7 year old, trusty, never break, never give up, never defective, fu*kin solid HTC HIMALAYA (02 xda II) WINDOWS MOBILE BRICK!!!!!
woman: "so your phone should be repaired i about 14 days"
The good news is if the problem isn't fixed they will give me a brand new one.
Comments?

I am confused.

makes no sense

I think
woman: DROPPED MY PHONE ON THE FLOOR, ABOUT 1METER AND HALF DROP!!!!
was meant to be
flyboyovyick DROPPED MY PHONE ON THE FLOOR, ABOUT 1METER AND HALF DROP!!!!
I decided to edit due to the swearing...
I hope you get your phone back, and that you didn't give it to them with anything on it... you know, such as your google accoutn linked to market so they can download whatever apps they feel like?

the woman actually dropped my phone on the floor!!!
And before i give it them i wiped it.
Its just, when she dropped it she didn't apologise. Or check it for any damage.
So if it comes back damaged, i will be telling them that the woman in the shop dropped it.

lol Please don't hate me for this but Apple will replace and held hand device straight away if something is not working and is under warranty. That's the only good thing from them But anyway hope you get a replacment device, especialy considering the woman dropped your phone

Well i was aiming to get a refund so i can buy a san francisco.
But.... It hasn't worked out so far.
Still, i will see how it goes.

My HD2 has developed a problem with the screen too.
I want to give it in for repair, but I really cant be bothered waiting upto a month (tmobile) to get it replaced.
So I think Im going to be cheeky and ask them for a brand new phone insted, as HD2s are almost a year old (DesireHD pleaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaseee god!)
I doubt they will let it happen though...
Its shocking that the woman dropped your phone! I'd expect a brand new one there and then if that happened to me

Sorry to ruin your joke!
But its not funny when you haven't got a good phone any more!

thats not a carphone its a mobile phone !!
u could of only stole it from their employee , no wonder theyre not happy about you !!

cba to quote an earlier post, mainly as my work proxy had one hell of a seizure yesterday due to the language used... guess they changed some things!
But anyways - Sorry i misunderstood. Did you get the name of the carphone employee, and the time and date? That way if it comes back un repairable due to the damage from the dock you can pressure them to look at the CCTV to watch the fool drop your phone!
Hopefully you'll get a new phone, I don't know of many places that still sell your LG GT540.
