Should HTC Cavalier have it's own page

Well I think it' time to vote should HTC Cavalier be separated from its predecessor HTC Excalibur.
My vote goes YES
Cheers

Did the Cavalier ever get produced by HTC? I thought it was postponed indefinitely?

Google is a great tool...

YES - Own forum

Yes it should have it's own forum.
It has a different processor, different features and is bound to have different nuances and problems.

course it'll get its own forum. you just need to PM the right admin

cool it'll be there soon, no need for a poll for this kind of thing.

Does anyone know the status of getting a Cavalier forum up and running? I've had my Cavalier for a few months know (Dopod C730) and I'm finding the forum info about it is getting spread all over the place since it doesn't have a home anywhere.
I'm especially interested in any solutions to the text input problem with Windows Live Search since that's a show-stopper for me.
PLEASE MAKE A CAVALIER FORUM. (Sorry to raise my voice like that. )

to echo everyone's posts...a Cavalier section would be greatly appreciated/needed....please mods make it happen.......

Any update on this? Us Dopod C730 owners would love not wading through Excalibur posts.

Support to have a Cavalier forum

YES
Yes, it should. It's hard to find the appropriate posts mixed in a dozen forums.
Thanks,
Sandro
DOPOD C730

Agree, I need to unlock my Hongkong C730, and flash Singapore ROM to support Chinese Simplified. thanks

Please,
I vote Yes for a Cavalier forum!
Thanks.

I have to agree, I do not see why there would not be a separate Cavalier / c730
section.

POLL: Start new forums for other devices: O2, Samsung, Gigabyte

Hi friends! I just want to start a poll for voting if we want to have a forum for other non-HTC devices, like the following list:
-O2 (like stealth, atom pure, etc)
-Toshiba
-Samsung
-Gigabyte
In the initial time I think that a separate forum for each manufacturer would be ok...
Basically we are here to share knowledge and expertise about using these great devices, and I think that will be great to add this new forums because while the community is becoming more popular, more users are here to research how to enhance their productivity...
Thanks in advance!

Yeah, I agreed to that. Voted already.

i want a forum for Eten x800 VGA with tri-band 3G!
y wouldnt u! Eten x800 is so much better then tytn/hymes.

pros and cons
well if we open up to more manufactures, this would mean more traffic, more knowledge on general forums and more people to donate to this great cause but these are busy forums anyway and the mods and admin have lives to lead. the extra burden is on them so either they appoint more admins and mods or leave it as it is. but as the name is xda developeras maybe they should allow other xda phones from o2.....

Hey, I don't want to scroll even further down!
Seriously, one should be able to hide the unwanted forums.

Hey, I'm trying for four months to get an HTC Cavalier forum on this site and it aint happening. So don't bother.
Cheers

just FYI: whatever the outcome of the poll, this site will be staying HTC only.

why?

@Midget_1990: Well, if the site remains only for HTC devices, it would be great if all HTC devices would have its own forum ;-)
Q: the T-Mobile Shadow (HTC Kii) was released, any chance to place its own forum?

Flar is the only person who can do this, so i suggest you start by PM'ing her

hey please open for xda stealth we r dying for the ......

I highly agree with new forums for other devices. I think we can find many great software in other manufacture devices as in HTC devices.
Such as: Gigabyte Wise talk, Answering mashine, Easy Menu, DTMF Sounds and ....

Moderators...you Are Losing It...

Hey Guys...there Are As Many As Five Forums Requested Of Late And The Mods Have Just Not Waken Up.
Htc Gene
Htc Phoebus
Htc Vogue
Htc Shift
Htc Polaris
....guys This Thread Is Dedicated To All The People Who Want Their Own Forum. And Lets Start Voting To Show The Strength.....
+1 Vote :d :d :d :d

well not sure about the other devices but the shift has not being released yet! for sale so a forum would be of little use at the moment but once the people who own these devices increase we can expect a change. but not till then. and also lets not be negtive these guys perform a great service to us and dont get paid they only get my and hopefully others respect and support....

just FYI Mod's CANNOT create new forums.

STILL
hey i agree that the mods do a lot for us .... on the other hand if the mods alone cant create sub forums...who can do it...coz if there will be forums ..people will automatically join..and when people will join thr will be constructive discussions goin on...even if it is for a TO BE released fone...aint it

Hi All,
My apologies for not responding earlier but as midget explained I wasn't able to due to sickness.
The HTC vogue has been added if i'm not mistaken this is the codename for the touch dual.
The HTC shift has been added.
The HTC polaris is added.
Gene and Phoebus are still under discussion within the mod forum.
I hope everyone understands that we don't create a forum for every device HTC thinks up (although we'd love to) but we are short on space and for every new forum we need mods to support them..
HTH HAND,
Flar

hii flar
well i can understand ur side...but HTC has just not thought about the GENE.....GENE is selling hotcake majorly.....plz do sumthin about it....
nikhil

what about a nike forum ... i got one. it is on sale at least in uk and germany.

When you check the new posts,you see only the Kaiser,Elf and Tytn under discussion.I own a gene,but I think the factors standing in the way of its forum are:
1. Nobody can come up with a WM6 upgrade. No point in discussing something that doesnt have any issues/problems. What are we gonna do at that forum,brag about a stable handset?Really,now.
2. Not enough Gene owners speaking out.No advanced users interested in tinkering with it.The ROM Kitchens arent very helpful to the RUU either.
3. Refer to point no.1

touch dual is "nike", "vogue" is touch for USA (CDMA) with different chipset from original touch and dual... Completely different devices
please, add a forum for touch dual aka htc nike

forum for HTC TOUCH DUAL
YES YES YES...please, add a forum for touch dual aka htc nike

Yes please. The Touch Dual needs to have a separate forum!

No Way. On the forum home page there is indeed a "no new posts" icon in front of Himalaya WM6, but that's not correct. The Hima is very much alive and kicking and so are the Hima community and the WM6 cooks.

So you mean to say that some PDAs have had forums for so long they ran out of things to talk about?Thanks for the support.

No, I mean that there is actually a lot of exciting action going on in the Hima board. Hima rules.

Of course I hope you get your own boards. But you'll have to create your own exciting action, I'm affraid. Why not start the action in here, in the general discussion area? Publish an exciting ROM, a kitchen and some interresting questions about your device right here and soon enough the admins will transfer them to your own brand new area. At least that's what I'd expect. I'm not an admin or a moderator.

Personally, I think the current list needs to be categorised into generations because despite having a screen resolution of 1280x1024, it remains an absolute pain in the arse to scroll through everything to find the forum you want to go to... perhaps firstly categorising the phones into their various "generations" with no pictures just names (although a horizontal line of phone images across the top similar to the wiki would be good since that wouldn't bloat things too badly) but overall, the idea of just dumping them into Generation categories would save on a hell of a lot of scrolling in any case, and images at the top can enable the casual idiots to find the correct phone.
That's my thinking anyway.

Id rather excite the wallet of some programmer who comes up with the ROM I want.That, as you say, will set the benchmark/starting point,which is what I said in my first post on this forum.
Btw,forgive the sarcasm in my previous posts. I was watching BBC News and they were putting words in some guys mouth. It seemed like a good idea at the time.

HTC Wings forum

Hi, could, please, some admin be so nice and create a forum for HTC Wings?
Tnx.

There you go
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=348

I'm confused..

He thinks that you meant the Tmobile Wing, instead of the HTC Wings, otherwise known as the HTC S730.

So, he should make sure, that device, i wrote about, exists, instead of pretending being too much clever..

Oh, I'm sorry Yep, read that too fast. Well, I'll hand your request over to moderators forum.

on that note - how about a subform for the tmo wing in the herald area?

I believe they had one temporarily, but I don't really see the use for it... It almost seems as if Wing users outnumber Herald users in that forum. Either way, it's the same phone as far as 98% of things go, so it benefits us to work together.

Yes, we created a Wing forum once, I even made a picture for it, but then we decided to take it down

Uh uh uh yes please make a S730 forum!!
/me wants...

*signs petition* Gief HTC S730/Wings forum now omfg!

I don't understand, is it so hard to create that forum?!

HTC Smart Forum?

Since the HTC Smart is formally an HTC phone, will it get it's own dedicated forum? It came out back in March and I still have yet to see a forum for it. Can anyone let me know if/when a forum will be made? Thanks!

Until we hear from some developers on how much can be done with the HTC Smart, we're going to skip it. This could change...

Alright, I haven't heard much from it. That's why I was curious since every HTC phone ever made is on here... except for the Smart....

That's not true really. First ones that come in mind are:
HTC P3000 (HTC Wave)
HTC P6300 (HTC Panda)
Qtek G100 (HTC Galaxy)
Those devices was never added to xda and there are some more I think

Aren't those the chinese ones that are all under the Dopod name though?

AFAIK, there's not much that can be done with the HTC Smart at present
I know someone with it, but he seems to feel hard-done by compared to my Hero and other Android phones out there. I dunno if it can be 'rooted' or anything like that.
But I imagine that given the proprietary nature of the OS, it will gain a limited following, which might hinder any possible dev work.
But if you can get into the device using telnet or anything like that, or find a way to flash or modify the filesystem, then you're half way there

+200. By adding a BREW forum (like you did with bada) we could most likely get some people on board to look at the HTC Smart and Freestyle.

And then there was silence!

Brew forum needed
I agree about the need for a Brew forum. Discussion breeds ideas

Bought my wife one of these sweet looking phones as her introduction to smart phone what waste of time, thing just keeps freezing, dialling when it likes to random people and openly moves stuff around after she has customized it......
Tried to sync it even that is not strait forward.........downloaded the HTC Sync software and can get it connected but the section on the right is all greyed out and it comes up with tick on of the boxes for it to sync.....but there's nothing to tick..
Anyone else had any problems?? I feel an updated firmware might well help. The no mention of the phone even existing on the HTC website and I only got it xmas just gone. I find that pretty appalling...

Well.... if their was an XDA section I think it would progress in terms of customization and support.
