I am thinking of buying Breeze/MTeor but I wanted to get users opinon on the phone, things that I would like to use:
Pushmail, Naviagation.
Things I wanted to know about was:
1 - Does the phone freeze or hang ?
2 - Is there any problems where you miss alot of phone calls (had this issue on HTC TyTn)
3 - Does it work fast enough, navigating through menu and apps ?
4 - Will I be able to use TomTom ?
5 - If anyone has experience of Pocket PC, what the difference you find with Smartphone version ?
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
first you could read the Wiki (Review's) maybe help you too!!
second:
i had an TyTn before the MTeor!
had also many problems with the tytn ... but most of them in wm5 ... with wm6 most is gone...
i had no phone hang yet on mteor! no calls missed ... i didn't expect any problems so far...
speed is very good! (is the only sp with a 300 mhz cpu) !!!
you are able to use tomtom!
once there is an special smartphone tomtom edition you also can use the pocketpc version! there is a programm called PSHelper with that programm you can act with the d-pad like you have a touchscreen (with a mouse coursor!!)
the differences between the ppc and sp are the missing of a touchscreen!! but as you can see on tomtom with pshelper there is also not a big problem!
some apps did not work on sp ... like the game worms... there are some special smartphone versions of apps out!!
for software just look in wiki!!
also theres a bit difference in the today screen but nothing big.. you did not have such plugins like on the ppc ... just browse the web for sbsh facade or look in to wiki i have attached a screenshot in the skin section ... there you can see the agenda software...
Thanks, I did look through the Wiki and the forum before posting.
I cannot find anything about PSHelper searched google too, do you have a link ?
I sold my TyTn and went for a treo 750v which I really do like, but I want to go to a smaller phone but keep alot of the functions, and the MTeor seems to be the perfect solution.
Which version of TomTom are you running, I have version 6 I use on my treo can I use this with PSHelper ?
Hi,
sorry my fault program calls sphelper
http://www.bobsoft.com/sphelper/
i used it with tomtom5 and 6 theres no difference...
simply explained... the programs that are written for ppc waits for input on screen! but you cant do that on a smartphone...
so the mouse cursor does that for you!!
for me the mteor is the best solution... it is a phone with pocketpc funktionalities!!
i have loved my tytn but the size and weight ....
if you want a slideout keyboard i prever you to wait for s730 ? because s710 has the slide out keyboard but the "slow" omap cpus ....
s730 with keyboard starts looking like my TyTn I think I'd be happy with the MTeor and hopefully with the new versions you mentions, should mean the MTeor resale price should be coming down, works for me.
1 - I haven't had any problems with the phone hanging.
2 - I have huge problems, especially when roaming, that the phone looses the connection to the network - even if the signal strength is good. Others have had a better experience.
3 - I find it fast enough.
4 - Only Tomtom mobile 5 will work. Tomtom navigator 6 is only done for PPC.
5 - I will be going the other way soon, getting a 3600 instead. I've never used a PPC yet.

I did some time ago. Cool maybe, but I find the resulting user interface (TT6+sphelper) almost unusable anyway. Maybe I should have written that TT6 doesn't work very well with MTeoR since TT6 is written for PPC and not smartphones. It can be made to work, barely.
Alright at last I won myself a Mteor on ebay, waiting for delivery hopefully Thursday, can't wait
So tomtom5 runs without the need for sp helper, tomtom6 you need sp helper is that right ?
Does it really make it unusable ?, Is sphelper always running? does it slow down the phone at all ?

yes
TT5 has a smartphone version and pocket version, but TT6 is pocket only. So you need rather additions to run pocket software like TT6

you need run it only when you want to use TT6
So should I just use TomTom Mobile 5 which was made for smartphone? (I take it voices is a problem)
Is there any benefit of using TomTom 6 ?
TT6 has much better maps.
Note: TT 5.200 is the lowest version you need.
Hello !
I've got the stratugus ( emu for warcraft II ) its great and it was working on my Uni. Now ive got Kaiser i did rom upgrade from Orange PL ( pice of sh%$t) to oryginal HTC rom WM 6.1. Everything is working fine, got some issues with IGO 8 but solve it. Now i can't start stratugus. After i press stratugus got message about trust program then it thinks for a second and.... nothing happens....
any idea ??
NO one got any idea ?? i notice that i cant even run wolfenstain 3d... i don't know why. The COD 2 or Virtual Pool is running fine ...
All I can suggest is to use Kaizer Tweak to disable request for certificates.
ok it didn't help i tried few more things but didn't solve the issue. After that i tried different ROM's and the solution was the WM 6.0 . I guess that it only runs under that version or lower ... so bye bye WM 6.1.....
I have WM 6.1 (Hyperdragon 3) and am bummed to hear this. I wanted to play WC2 on my phone, but if there is no work around... I'll keep checking for any updates.
Rachet~
HEy all you WM 6.1 Lovers its working i installed the ROM with the Mannila 2D interface ( forgot who's , but i'll check it ) and you know what ?? ITS WORKING
give me a second i need to search in recycle to see who is the owner of the rom
OK its the PDACornerUltimate.V5-20759|HTCCA D3D|M2D| ROM
Its great, smooth , sexy and fast and everything is working great
and even the Stratugus seems to work faster ...
Success! I was able to install and play WC2 on my Tilt running the HyperDragon 3 Rom. I guess it pays to try something for yourself.

Hi
I have been using TT7 on a diamond for a while now and have just upgraded to a diamond 2 but when I tried to install the TT7 cab I just get an error message saying it is not compatible with this handset.
Both are running on windows 6.1 does anybody know why it won't work on the diamond 2?
Many thanks
