Does Anything compare to the tilt? - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

My AT&T Contract runs out in a few weeks, although I love my tilt I would also like something new. In comparing the new phones that at&t has, nothing (in my opinion) compares to the tilt. The new Samung Epix is nice but I dont like the keyboard. The fuze actually felt cheap to me. I would go for an iphone if it had a teathering option or a program like walking wifi hotspot (Which I use alot). I guess I just wait it out or are there other options out there for a windows mobile phone?
Opinions?
Thanks!

Wait until around october, maybe the tilt2 will be out by then.

Saying goodbye to G1....

Thanks to this forum and especially Cyanogen, I was able to enjoy my G1 much more than what I would have. As much as I loved my G1, it still frustrated me and was ready for something better....I broke down and got a Motorola Droid. There are a million reviews, so won't bore you with redundant info, but give a quick comparison to my G1 experience.
My G1 was running Cyanogen 4.2.3.1 and I have owned it since last years pre-order.
What I love about the Droid
1. Speed- the phone is FAST...not just running multiple apps, but network speeds put T-Mobile to shame. Downloading and installing apps takes seconds. I can use Google Navigation and run Pandora and text away and the phone runs flawlessly, has yet to freeze or get bogged down.
2. Display - it's gorgeous and with 2.0, the icons and pics look amazing.
3. Android 2.0 - Google backs up all your settings, including bookmarks and apps. I had to exchange my first Droid and when I signed into my Google account on the replacement, all my apps were automatically downloaded and installed, my background changed, and my bookmarks were all there. Doesn't store app data, but still nice. Nice integration with Facebook without being in your face. Lots of neat touches here and there, seems like a much more finished and polished OS. Google Navigation is a great product, look forward to updates.
4. Fit and Finish - compared to the G1, the feel is sooo much better.
5. Battery - so far been great. Haven't put down the phone since Friday and it lasts all day no problem.
What I don't like
1. G1 keyboard way better. More spacious and just easier to use.
2. Sound quality - using Pandora, my G1 was crisp and clear, with the Droid, I get distortion if I turn it up to loud through the 3.5 jack to my car stereo
3. No root - no home screen rotation, wi-fi tethering, etc.
Happy for you. Right now all of us T-Mo guys are jealous of Verizon subscribers.
Unless they can match it, our carrier is going to lose all the enthusiasts they gained when the G1 launched.
Your comparing a phone thats out of its leauge(hero vs droid vs cliq s better)? Anyway thnks for review verizon has bigest network so theres no reason to put down us tmo users.
Yeah I love my g1 but I am wanting a new android phone also. Verizons pricing is way to ridiculous for me. I was tempted to get a sprint hero but it looks like the hero is going to be outdated soon. I kind of like the sprint samsung moment with its 800 mhz processor, so its between this or the behold II unless there is something coming soon that I should wait for?

Haha...not putting anyone down. I didn't even realize I had been with T-Mobile for so long but when I called to cancel my service, she said but you have been with us for 8 years, is there anything we can do. I didn't have the heart to say quit getting crap phones. I shouldn't say crap, but every phone they have or are getting just has at least one major flaw (for me). I have to have a physical keyboard, although honestly with the bigger screen on the Droid, the onscreen keyboard isn't so bad and because I am not completely used to the physical keyboard, been using the onscreen quite a bit.
Verizon is a little pricey, but through work I get a 20% discount, so it actually works out cheaper than T-Mobile. I was paying just at $100 a month with taxes and Verizon is going to be $10-15 cheaper.
I am just happy to finally see so many Android products being released. I was a bit nervous the first few months with my G1 because it just didn't seem to be catching on and the apps were lacking. I think a lot of big comnpanies took a wait and see approach and they are finally producing some quality apps (like Pandora, etc.). Competition is good for us all and I hope the G1 keeps evolving through the guys here that keep making ROMS for it.
just ordered a new ext batt for my g1. i'm keeping it until i see something that is a major hardware upgrade that wont have to be upgraded soon. maybe bt 3.0?

Should I trade my HTC Pure with an iPhone?

I recently put my HTC Pure on craiglist for trade with iPhone. I got response from one girl who wants to trade her iphone 3G 8GB (she said she bought it 3 months back) with my HTC Pure.
I have less than a day to make this decision. And now I am so confused... Should I do this trade? Is it a fair deal?
A few more questions (may be this is not the right place to ask these questions but if anyone has any idea then please let me know.)
1. Is there a forum as good as xda-developers.com for iPhone? If yes then what is it?
2. Can I use my current ATT Phone Simcard into iPhone without buying the costly dataplan?
3. How will I make sure that the iPhone is not stolen one?
4. I have heard about "iPhone Clones". How to make out the difference between iPhone and "iPhone Clone"
No way!!!
I wouldn´t do it

Any Specific reason m8? I know I love my Pure and I am a big WM! I am doing this deal because I already have one more WM phone (ATT Tilt Kaiser) and now I want to see why does everyone talk about iPhone a lot.
There has to be something... Dont you think?
do it ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
is she local? if so, meet at a AT&T store and do the deal there....compare her iphone with the one in the store and find out if hers is a clone or not.
3G has a slow processor, and No real multi tasking. it's going be a downgrade for you, that's what i think. Lol. don't get sucked in with the candy clothed games
Do you know how slow the processor is?
I mean do you have an idea about the specifications of iPhone 3G processor vs. HTC Tilt?
I got both the 3G and the Pure, so I can comment on this
HTC is a work phone. Its designed to get stuff done. Office Mobile, multitasking, not to mention the inherent flexibility of WM. As a Pure owner, I'm sure you're aware of all of this.
All of this will be GONE on the iPhone. In its place will be a a great phone to consume media, HUGE selection of applications, a much more responsive touchscreen, and pretty much the best media experience on a phone.
What you gotta decide is which one of those things are more important to you. I couldn't decide on either, so I have been jumping back and forth for the past two months as what I need to get done with my phone changes.
Though, with the recent BS patent lawsuit from Apple, I havent been able to look at my iPhone or MacBook Pro the same way since...
I sold away my iPhone 3G after 3 months of having it. I need compatible Windows phone that will work with my PC so I stick to my Diamond2, TouchPro2 and 838Pro. For truly screen display, I have the Samsung Pixon 12 and OmniaII with AMOLED display which are very good in bright sunlight. For 12MP photo snapshots I have the Sony Ericsson Satio and the Samsung Pixon to do the job if I don't have my DSLR with me. The iPhone doesn't come close to any of these phones that are definite keepers for me. Therefore I sold the iPhone away without any regret. Talking about video calls on iPhone??? Apple have to do something about it.
I agree with demonic_pascal. We have both in my familly and I know what I prefer. Ever tried to to transfer files to/from the iphone? Its a PITA bigtime. I don't agree with comments about the media experience etiher. The Topaz will play far more file formats than the iPhone. If you are looking for a game console then get the iphone. If you want a phone that gets thigns done stick with teh Topaz.
2. Can I use my current ATT Phone Simcard into iPhone without buying the costly dataplan?
I dont think this is possible, cuz once the sim card is put into the phone, it will automatically update your phone to ATT database and you will force buy a data plan. You can try to unlock your iphone, I heard this works, but not so sure though.
4. I have heard about "iPhone Clones". How to make out the difference between iPhone and "iPhone Clone"
There are several post online that show you how to spot a fake iphone. Generally, the cover is not as polish, the Apple logo, the fine print on the back, the screen size.
The iphone is the good phone, it has a fast processor that runs games and app smoothly but I still wouldn't make the trade though. First, the Iphone 3G now is kinda obsolete. Second, she said that you have one day to make the trade, did she give you the good reason? If not, most of the time people just want to scam you so they put the time limit to make you think its a good deal. So just make sure that its real, tell her to post proof and ask her why the rush? Lastly, the ideal of owing an Iphone is just not that intriguing to me.
Never dream of it!

Lol Already sold my Pure for 300.
Now buying the iPhone in 270 from a local store. Lets see what happens.
I will post my experience. But I am still a XDA coz I have a TILT
Got rid of iphone. But I will say it is a lot better and finger friendly operating system than windows mobile. Bought htc hd 2 thereafter but sold that too eventually... After using iphone I can't use windows mobile lol.
Right now I have google nexus one. Wow... I love this phone more than any thing ever! Android is the best operating system. It is as finger friendly as iphone and you can customize it like windows mobile.

Answer is no even tho you already made the deal. Just buy an iPod Touch and have it as mp3/video player+internet+twitter+facebook+email. I got a TD2 right now together with an iPod and I think it's a nice combination because I waste my battery in less than 6 hours if I start listening to music or watch videos.
I will get a HD2 later on tho but I will only use it for telephone, internet, email, sms, videos and all that stuff. iPod as mp3 player, always.
Iphone has about 400 times more apps and games. the 8 gig is slower but the 32gig and 64 are faster better hardware. if it were my i would trade my pure for the iphone 8gig. I have an ipod 32 gig i compared it next to my buddys 32gig iphone. as for app launching etc.. they were pretty much equal.. but my daughters 8 gig ipod next to my pure the the ipod is faster as in moving around and lauching most apps.
but hey. good luck

Nexus One or myTouch 3G Slide?

I've been out of the phone market for a bit, making due with a cooked Windows Mobile 6.5 on T-Mobile because of not being able to sync my corp email on Android.
Got an email today and seen the new myTouch 3G Slide. I had a Sidekick 3 a few years ago and love QWERTY keyboards on phones. I have an iPod Touch and not sure if I could use a virtual keyboard with all the texting/emailing/ircing I do from my phone (I work in IT). Just from the picture, I immediately thought this would be my next phone.
After further research, it looks like the myTouch 3G Slide is geared for consumers/family while I would consider myself a power user. Compared to the Nexus One, it has a scaled down CPU (600mhz) and has the Expresso UI, which I think I would rather just have a stock Android. But it does have a QWERTY keyboard!
I started looking at the Nexus One. Faster processor, stock Android but no QWERTY keyboard.
I'm trying to decide which phone is for me. I would like to stay with T-Mobile. I tried Verizon for a day, bill was $40 more per month and they had IRC ports blocked. I want to be able to multitask and IRC/AIM from my phone, with IRC constantly connected in the background.
Also, I do not live in a T-Mobile 3G area. I would be on the Edge network and not sure how either of these newer phones would perform.
After some time, I could probably reload the Slide without the custom UI, but I'll be stuck with a 600mhz processor and that bothers me.
With the Nexus, I would have a better performing phone but no QWERTY. The QWERTY might be the deal breaker but I'm not 100% sure.
Any thoughts or suggestions? Thanks!
The Nexus One is the first phone I've owned without a hardware qwerty keyboard and I thought it was going to a really tough transition. Then I got the swype beta. I still prefer hardware keyboards, but I wouldn't trade my Nexus for anything else on the market right now.
Having used the MyTouch3G and now using the Nexus One, I'd have to say N1. Especially if you're an IT guy and wish to do multitasking and moreover wish to multitask without facepalming every 5 minutes. There is NO comparison in speed between the MT3G and the Nexus One. The N1 is snappy every minute of the day no matter what I throw at it. The MT3G can still do all the same things, but honestly, it's slowwwwwwww... Go Nexus One and get yourself Swype. You'll never need another hardware keyboard again.
Don't disappoint yourself!
Edit: Unlock your bootloader and load whatever UI or custom ROM you'd like on your N1
Jim
You must be kidding?
Smaller screen
Lower resolution
Slow processor
Weird custom UI
Low developer support
Most likely locked to T-Mobile
And a bit ugly
You can get used to using an on-screen keyboard. And there's more than a half-dozen of them to choose from.
You can't get used to small, slow, outdated, crappy hardware.
If you REALLY want a physical keyboard, at least the Nexus One is unlocked and has extremely high resellability. So when a Snapdragon-wielding physical keyboard phone arrives, you can make the swap easily.
There's just no contest here.
At least wait for the LG Ally to get released before you make any decisions.

Here's my two cents.
A smartphone without 3G BLOWS...you won't enjoy the full capability of the device.
If I were you... I'd go with Sprint. Chances are they have 3G in your area. The Evo 4G is the device you want. If you're really a power user, you'll want to shoot yourself if you have a slower device than you need to... and I'll be honest. I had a G1 prior to the N1. I was weary of not having a hardware keyboard, but typing on a large screen makes it much easier... the Evo will probably be even easier.

I know exactly how that feels so I can relate!
So with that being said, I think it's time for me to get off T-Mobile since they do not have 3G in my area. I liked T-Mobile because they are an underdog and I have a grandfathered unlimited Internet package for only $20/month. Sprint and Verizon do have 3G in my area. This has been a non-issue with my old phone since I mainly used it as a texting/email device.
While looking at the new T-Mobile phones, the HD2 really caught my eye. Large screen and it just looked good. I did not like the idea of still using Windows Mobile 6.5.
I looked into uansari1's suggestion at the Sprint EVO 4G. This is the phone I am going to get! The EVO 4G has the same hardware as the HD2 and the latest Android build! It's time for me to stop worrying about the qwerty keyboard and move on.
I am not under contract with T-Mobile so I'll be visiting Sprint soon and hopefully get a pre-order.
IgpI say go with the LG Ally. I can't exactly find how fast the professor is, but it is official that it will feature Live Wallpapers - so it can't be that bad. It runs Eclair (Android 2.1) and has a slide out QWERTY keyboard as you want. Oh wait, though, its coming to Verizon.. and you said you just switched from that.
Well, in that case definitely go with the Nexus.
Bigger screen than the Slide, faster processor, it is Google's phone, the developer support is high, it is easy to root - and I can type as fast as I could on my G1 with the HTC_IME keyboard (the keyboard that HTC Sense features, that can be installed on the Nexus). Really this was one of those duh questions, unless you really need a QWERTY keyboard, the choice is simply too obvious.
Though, if you like Espresso (the custom version of Sense that the Slide possess), you could easily root your device and install an HTC Desire ROM. It's not exactly like Espresso, it may be better, or equal to, to some.
Oh your going with the Evo, that's good. T-Mobile can't be an underdog, I wouldn't think an underdog would be the fourth largest carrier in the US. That's not first, second, or third, but fourth is not entirely horrible.

I think the biggest issue for the OP is the lack of 3G, which will limit his ability to enjoy his phone. If the N1 still goes to Sprint, he'll have that option as well if he goes with that carrier.

would att have 3g coverage ? the nexus one is available with att service. not that I'm promoting att... oh god.
if you love hardware keyboards, you'll miss it on the nexus one. i have.
i haven't personally seen the slide, so i can't comment on it's cpu speed... but if it's similar to the g1, i don't see it being a problem.
can't answer your exchange question either, i never touch the stuff.
I work at Tmo and have gotten to play with the Slide. I also own an N1 which between the 2 I prefer my nexus. I love the larger screen, longer battery life, and faster processor. the slide is a good phone and better than any android selection you can find at a Tmo store at the moment. The ui on the slide us very smooth and very impressive because the processor is not that much faster than a lot of the androids Tmo currently has.

Nice analogy! lol I do have to agree... I have to use wifi where I live, but I work in a 3g/HSPA/HSPA+ market... at home I feel like what I assume a junkie feels when they are in rehab and are forced to use smaller amounts of juice! I think the HSPA runs as fast as wifi and the plus is like ungodly faster than sprints "4G"... Nexus is HSPA and under, but no confirmation on H/H+

How about... It's like masturbating without thumbs. Sure it still feels good but it just doesn't get the job done.
I am also trying to decide on the N1 or the MT3GS. Leaning toward the N1

HD2 Vs. N1

I am sorry if this has been covered in other posts, but I currently have the HD2. I love it except for the fact that it lags and I basically have to reset it once or twice every day because it freezes on me. I am thinking about getting an N1, and would like to know if there is anyone else that has gone from an HD2 to the N1 and what their feelings are on it. I had the G1 when it first came out, but since they didn't have 3G in my area for almost a year after it came out, I got rid of it. Plus it didn't have a lot of things I really wanted like saving MMS and the like. However, now it does. Anyway, any feedback would be appreciated.
n1
The HD2 is really beautiful hardware I gotta admit but it's downfall is the software, IMHO.
I say the N1 easily, especially with the rumored 2.2 update coming up in the horizon. Beautiful hardware combined with awesome software, I can't imagine going back to WinMo after spending a few months with Android.
It also might be better to jump on a new N1 now since Google might be pulling the plug on their web sales and going carrier only.
went from nexus to hd2......back to nexus
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=679111
I had the HD2 and liked it, but after I tried N1 there is no looking back. I love the speed and the OS with the Market is unbeatable. No regrets.
I'm a former HD2 user, now converted to the Nexus One. My story is a ittle different than the other posters. I actually loved everything about the HD2, and was hardpressed to trade it when it came time to. It is truly a pocket computer, and which gives you the ability to tweak it to death as long as you have access to the registry and custom roms installed. I actually found myself turning Sense off at times becomes I didnt need to glitter all the time. Task Manager is your best friend too. I only got rid of it because I got bored with it after a while.
That said, Android is the **** for its own reasons as well. You have the ability to mod it to you liking, you get a more polished OS overall and access to thousands of useful apps without paying a hefty price, or paying at all.
to each his own.

Need lil help/All input welcomed

I have a Nexus One running cm7 theme Inexus and I love this phone. Its in great shape and never thought in my mind I would ever consider selling it. Everything about it since I first got it, does everything I want it to do. Now comes into the question. I'm with T-Mobile and been with them since the begining but I feel it's time to say goodbye to them for couple different reasons. Looks like I'm going to go with cincinnati bell and they told me I could use my Nexus One with them that was great news. When I was at the store I picked up the Galaxy S and felt pretty good.
Whats the pros and cons of Nexus One and the Galaxy S. Or even though the Galaxy S felt good not on same level of N1?
Thanks for all that might beable to help me with this question.
Don't know if it matters. I have had a nexus one. Later, on ATT I picked up a captivate. I personally loved the feel of it, but the gps issues and the lack of a camera flash were game breakers to me. However, the power in screen quality almost made up for it. But here I am, sold my captivate and have an att nexus one and still love it.
Well, honestly, I would never move away from the Nexus One for a Galaxy S at this moment in time... yeah, the phone has great features but lacks the build quality of the Nexus One... the "plastic" finish just doesn't cut it... too many surface scratches too easily!!
This is the input I'm looking for, thanks guys keep them coming. I don't want to regret getting rid of my N1 if the time comes. I wish the N1 speaker sounded just a lil bit better when listening to music. But not complaining cause my N1 has been out standing for me. My girl has a comet and the speaker when listening to music sounds like its coming from a high end stereo ha.
If the AT& -T-Mobile deal goes through, would you eventually be without a 3G signal once AT&T scaps the AWS band frequency? Does Cincinatti Bell roam onto TMO's towers?
Not sure good question. Where I live with T-Mobile I'm just outside the 3g coverage. I use wifi at home. 10mins up the road 3 g kicks in.

They haven't been clear yet on how the merge would affect current phones. But one would assume they would only use the EDGE network. Because of the time it would take to finalize the deal they would most likely be able to keep the network intact till the contract ends and either offer replacements or some sort of compensation for rendering the phones useless on their new network.
Has anybody had a galaxy and a nexus one? Do they run bout the same? I know galaxy Dosnt have a flash on camera. Looking for lil more pros and cons.
Trackball, and Trackball wake
I myself have had ample time to play with both devices as my lil bro has a nexus s and i have a nexus one yes the build quality by HTC is better than the Sammy but with 500 dollar phones you had better have a case on that sucker so the plastic feel would be out the widow there. Now the hardware in the Sammy is not that much better than that in the HTC and does not hold enough gains over my nexus to make me get it. And the ultimate deal breaker for me is and it may make me keep this nexus one until im forced to get rid of it and that is the trackball alerts. There is no way that I would be able to live without my trackball notifications and trackball wake. Just my 2 cents

My younger brother uses the SGS and when comparing the two.. I hate the feeling of the galaxy. Not too comfortable in my hand and the plastic feeling ughh (But its great with the otterbox commuter case) Comparing the two when playing some games (I don't play so I could really care less), sgs definitely runs it faster but no camera flash is terrible. I can't live without the flash, (I almost use the camera everyday! Even in the hospital!) the torch app is so useful too. Some hardware on sgs is better, but it's missing some stuff the nexus has. It's a tough decision between the two. I hope that putting the things in brackets sort of show that it really depends on how you're going to use your phone.
Since I have the nexus and the sgs isn't a major upgrade, I'm just gonna wait it out.
If I had to choose between the two, I would go for the nexus. (To be honest, I wouldn't go for either at the rate phones are coming out right now! Just hold on to your current for a bit more!)

Now the hardware in the Sammy is not that much better than that in the HTC and does not hold enough gains over my nexus to make me get it. And the ultimate deal breaker for me is and it may make me keep this nexus one until im forced to get rid of it and that is the trackball alerts. There is no way that I would be able to live without my trackball notifications and trackball wake. Just my 2 cents

+1 and +1! I always have my eye on the trackball for notifications. I guess I'm gonna have to get used to this soon though Reminds me if games like goldeneye back then.. damn that game. I dunno if it's just me but b/c of it, I play all fps games with the controller settings inverted! Can't get used to that, dunno how I'll get used to no ball!!
Everybody has been very helpful. Thank you very much. Now I need lil more help on different matter lol.
My girl got the Hauwei 8100 and I just rooted it but now I want to put a stable cyanmod on it. But I have no clue what to do or where to go or what to get. I know my N1 but I have no clue bout her new phone. Can I get some help or links or step by step . (A easy way to do it ha)
Having both, the galaxy s has an amazing screen, amazing! N1 feels. Better in hand. They both run just as fast once rommed.
