whats the difference bewteen WM6 standaard and pro?
Is it only the remote desktop and making office docs?
Well, Pro is actually just for the Windows Mobile Pocket PCs, and standard describes the Windows Mobile Smartphone Edition...so they are very different like they are now already..but furthermore, i dun really know the differences...
ow, okaj, thanks!
Pro supports touchscreen PDAs too. There are other differences. It's a more hefty OS.

I have planned to buy O2 XDA IIs from my frnd (2nd hand for sure)
Does it comes under the name, blueangel???
also please tell me pros and cons about this dmobile device
I already own O2 xda exec, typhoon and voyager
what about this one???
cud U, experienced users please guide me....am i gonna upgrade its rom to WM6 or not??
It's a great device, you won't make a mistake It has Intel PXA263 400mhz processor (This is the only thing i don't like in blueangel. It is not so fast. If you plan to play 3d games it is not very good for this. But you can easily overclock it with pocket master to 530mhz. With this frequency it handles everything without Snow Rally - there's a little lag and you can't play Playstation 1 games even if you overclock it to 590. I got 21-23fps in Tony Hawk Pro Skater with @530mhz and Frameskip - 2), 128 ram (This is great! With so much ram you don't need real close button.But there are no applications that wants more than 32 ram, so this is not a big advantage), Big screen and the best design for games(The screen is perfect. It wouldn't be bad if there was VGA screen but QVGA is not so bad either. In web browsing the qvga resolution is a big dissadvantage. You have to scrool a lot. But now there are browsers now that supports Zoom function.With it the browsing is good even on qvga device. When Opera 9.5 comes out it will rock And the design is great for games. It's like joystick when you handle it in landscape position and there are many buttons), 64mb Flash Storage(It's not much but you don't need more. There are SD Cards for that), SD/MMC expansion slot( The bad thing here is that it doesn't support SDHC, there are no drivers for that and there won't be in future ), CIF camera (It is really badd. The image quality is similar. If you try to record video it lags. I don't know why :/ It does it wven in the lowest quality), WiFi( No problems here), Bluetooth (No problems here either), IrDA( It can't be used as a remote controller because the irda range is around 3 meters)
And finally the PocketPC comes with WM2003. You can install WM6.1 but I recommend you to wait for explode's WM6.1. His roms are the best With the new windows the pocket becmoes really fast and stable. That's all, it's a great device

Nice choice. I recently picked up a hermes and while it is very nice, there are some things I miss from the Angel.

I don't quite understand this question. If you are asking if it was sold under the name of Blue Angel, no. Blue Angel is the HTC internal name for the phone. It was never sold by HTC directly, but to the various cell carriers who rebadged it with their own plastics and ROM/applications.

Pros:
Good CPU speed (the keiser runs at the same speed, 400 mhz)
The CPU has been around for a while, so 3rd party apps that are designed for the CPU work well.
Good physical size on the screen
Lots of storage and program memory when the extended ROM is resized/removed.
Cons:
Since it is an older platform, any MW version after 2003 is a hack. The drivers are generally ported from other phones and there are various bugs that will probably never be fixed due to a lack of hardware drivers. Everything does work, there are just various quirks.
Radio range (bluetooth, wifi, etc) are not the best. Heck, they often tend to be down right crappy.
Unless someone is able to write and release a SDHC driver for the card slot, it will never support SDHC cards, which will limit the phone to 4 gig cards. 2 gig is the official spec for SD, but there are a few 4 gig non-SDHC cards out there.

I still like mine and plan on passing it to my wife or using it for testing and development if she doesn't want it.

I would. MW6 is a huge improvement over 2003 and 5. The latest ROM builds out there work very well, if not 99% perfectly, and are fast.
In my opinion, Hemli releasing wm6 for the angel breathed new life into the device.
Really, I wish HTC would revive the device, make an updated version of it. The form factor, while is a bit big for a phone, is great for usability as a PDA.

I second that! Just ditched my Hermes for my old trusty Blue Angel, which blows the pants off it! I forgot how much I loved the 3.5 inch screen!
Rookie as well with the Blue Angel
I am getting started with the Blue angel as well (O2 Xda IIs)
I like it a lot this will probably become my best buddy during my travels
I got a couple of complementary questions about it.
I intend to use it for business purposes, mainly Internet through
Wifi and GPRS, pdf and offices documents.
I saw on this forum that you advise to change from WM 2003SE to Windows Mobile 6 (the last published by Microsoft)
-My question is: This PDA is already a bit old now, is it going to work smoothly wit the very last OS, which is designed for more recent PDAs (i.e which should be more efficient).
I mainly want to use it for Internet, wich browser do you recommend ?
Internet explorer? Opera Mobile? Opera Mini? other browser?
By the way what is the difference between Opera Mobile and Opera Mini
you should go with opera mobile, as it is better suited for pda's. opera mini is suited for java based mobile phones.

man i wish they would do that, or release a device with the same glorious screen but with contemporary features, all in all the blu angel is still a killer device 4 years on.
Absolutely right. I had been using the subj for 4 years in nearly extremal conditions, uprading and downgrading firmware dozen times. But, unfortunately it died as hero. Really great gadget, legend of HTC platform challenging ages.
Hi
Well with WM 6.1 it does everything I need and thats for sure I have my pick of devices and always come back to this one - and the 11i which is just about as good
I cant think of a time I have been upset with what it does or doesn't do. I intend keep one for as long as it will run....

Check out this UI for the meizu phone..
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eq_qk4Rxn-0
It is running on windows mobile.
Will it be possible to port the code to HD?
http://www.meizume.com/m8-firmware/7812-m8-firmware-0-9-0-0-a.html
Probably possible - but difficult. The M8 uses only the Windows CE6 core, not Windows Mobile itself (which is still based on the crappy CE5 core). What Meizu did is take the good CE6 core and build a nice interface onto it.
This is exactly what Microsoft, HTC and all the other manufacturers should have done long time ago. Get rid of WM6 and its crappy CE5 core and build a new system on top of CE6.
Windows Mobile has both a crappy core and a crappy interface. I can't understand why Microsoft still has not built a new interface onto CE6, which was already released two-three years ago. That would've been easy but they just didn't care about Windows Mobile for another two years and let HTC and others do the work of replacing the WM interface - which is hard because there's always the crappy WM interface underneath.
The Meizu system is a bit like what Windows Mobile 7 will be - better core, nice interface. But Windows Mobile 7 is coming two years too late.
Anyway...
I suggest you do a Meizu M8 skin for iContact/PocketMusic/Resco Explorer/ThumbCal/Wisbar Advance Desktop and others in the meantime. Then replace the default Windows Mobile applications with these programs and voilà...
And make a finger-friendly alternative to Outlook...
And get rid of TouchFlo scrolling and implement the Windows Mobile 6.5 scrolling/zooming engine.

This maybe possible but you would need to shift everything around to make it Windows CE 6.0 compatible. I was looking into doing a project like this after building a ROM or two for my phone. Anyone up for a group project?
The project have been started?
i guess the music quality will be really good in this phone
MEIZU are well known about their good sound quality (i own the M6 MP4)
this going to be a really nice phone i think
At a net price around 325 euros during instant sale on the bay if the seller is in a good mood, and delivery ex Hamburg, it might be tempting to buy one... Just a pity there is no 3G, guess I wait for the M9
http://bit.ly/2nCJ3X
no G3??!
thats bad...too bad!
is this meizu m8 port to HTC blackstone possible?
i am looking at buying this phone and from what ive read it comes with windows 6.1 and you can upgrade it to 6.5, i wanted to know can it be ungraded to windows 7.
thank you
sut.
WinMo 6.5 is as far as it officially goes.
I SERIOUSLY doubt it'll ever get WP7, even unofficially. The HD2 is the only device to ever unofficially get WP7 (AFAIK), but that device has much better specs.
I have a rhodium bought it and when he came to win but the htc 6.1 released 6.5 to win it. I think it's the ideal but the win7 was looking to try because I have an android and would like to compare. I have not found any version of win7

You won't, for the TP2. Again, the HD2 is the ONLY WinMo device that'll run WP7. I seriously doubt any other device will get there - although there's a few other WinMo devices that might have the grunt to run it, the TP2 is not one of them. Look elsewhere.
Yes I know that HD is only left with 7 but I have a htc p4330 6.5 and got a win when the officer was only up to win5
Between win7mobile and win6.5 much more difference than win5 and 6.5. First of all in hardware specifications for win7 need multitouch screen.
Does WP7 actually need a multi-touch screen to even boot? How would it even know?
I guess the CPU architecture is more problematic then the touch screen.
Why would you like to run WP7 anyway? Even if we could somehow emulate the CPU - the system would be 10x slower then XdAndroid making the phone unusable.

Grass is always greener on the other side of the fence mate. Everyone wants what they can't have .
As you may know, there has been an official statement saying what editions of windows 8 there will be.
For x86, there will be two available to consumers (standard and pro) and one available only for volume licensing (enterprise).
Windows 8 ARM, often called WoA, has officially been named Windows RT. It will not carry the name "8" at all.
How will XDA handle this? There is already a Windows 8 forum on XDA, but this is a mobile development site, and Windows 8 will me mainly geared towards desktops and laptops. There will be some x86 tablets but most expect the new windows tablets to mainly run on ARM. Windows RT will be mostly tablets and some laptops.
Microsoft has also previously stated that windows phone 8 will be its own operating system, and will not be the same as WoA, now to be referred to as Windows RT (just pointing this out to avoid confusion)
So, a few options I can see happening:
-the Windows 8 forum being changed to windows RT, as this is a mobile site, and not having a windows 8 forum
-the windows 8 forum being kept, as there will be some mobile devices running it, and a windows RT forum being created as well, since they're different OSes
-making windows 8 have two main sections - x86 and RT (since they can run the same programs and share a lot of code)
What do you think will happen, and why?
And if anyone involved in the decision making process sees this, I'd love to hear your thoughts.
Windows Really Terrible?

Or simply windows Runtime. Indeed the branding can be confusing. ARM was fine. They could have gone for something simpler in their communication: Windows Tablet ...
Not sure it's a huge priority tbh...
Once we start to see what's coming out, I guess a decision will be made about if only the ARM version will be covered...
I could imagine something like a Windows 8 category (like a device appears as a category), with 2 subforums - ARM Devices and x86 Devices...
Just an idea, but not a major priority AFAIK. Guess it's a case of seeing how things go.

Hi,
I was wondering if any of you guys could suggest a stable word processor for Android? If that is possible. I am dealing with long text documents, 50,000+ words, so if there is nothing available that can handle that I understand. Kingston Office couldn't handle any relatively large word documents.
Perhaps I am asking too much of a mobile operating system, but my laptop is on its last legs and is slowwwww as hell.
My hardware is Nexus 7, although I also have Nexus 4 but I imagine the smaller screen to be insufficient for writing these documents.
Thanks,
Jota+ allows 1 million letters/symbols:

It also incorporates a spellchecker (for english). It is however not a fully fledged wordprocessor.
I bought Office Suite Pro when it was in a sale and it works really well on my Nexus.
It also connects to Dropbox.
I have Kingston Office and like d4v3w bought Office Suite Pro during the sale, for me the latter is much better and it handles Excel better too.
