Touch Pro 2 Spec Change

I went on HTC's website and the dimensions changed, now it says its 16.65 mm thick, before it said it was like 17.1 mm thick, does this mean that other spec changes could happen too? (Well actually they probably could but I doubt they will) But its still great that its a little thinner now, now its thinner than a G1 or Xperia X1

Clove's description says it has FM tuner, I hope this is correct.

Well at least it's something positive

HTC's website says its only 16.65 mm thick, but where they are selling it on Clove, it says 17.25 mm thick. Which one to believe....

16.65, 17.25mm. Does 0.6mm really matter?

True enough HTC has changed it's specs. Thinner is better of course. That is 0.6mm thinner. Will that be because they took the Radio Chip out? That is a bad trade off if it is. 0.6mm is not really noticeable.

LOL now that you mention it, that is probably why its thinner

I would much rather have it be the same thinness as before and have a radio than to make it a little thinner and to lose such a nice feature, maybe other than the fact that it saves them money they did it to even out the diamond 2 and it a little.

Thinner than the proverbial *expletive bleeped* hair.

Are you looking at this site:

Because the spec. still says 17.25?

What's 0.6mm between friends?

He's talking about this page: http://www.htc.com/www/product/touchpro2/specification.html
It's the www version of the site that they update primarily. The UK/DUTCH/GER/ITA etc etc versions of the site get updated later on

This whole radio myth is really kind getting on my nerves. LOL. Hope someone with the handset can just release us from this.

but i do think that if you make and install a cab of the radio program seen on the first rhodium rom it SHOULD work.

I saw that photo before and it was posted after our discovery about the change of sepcs on HTC's website. The photo was a relief but no one else have proven the radio afterward. But I hope that photo was correct by any means.

should be receiving mine tomorrow with luck, just received shipping notification, and as i'm so excited i probably won't sleep i'll do tomorrows work tonight and then get to play all day i'll let you know what i can find on it.

Well no radio so far found, the stylus has a distinct metal feel to it and the device does turn on when you take it out.
So far i am very impressed the grill onthe back i guess is for battery cooling as the speakers are only at the top , g-sensor all works fine and stuff unfortuntly am connecting to internet via work currently so can't post pictures or anything but if anyone has any requests for info i will check as often as i can.

so who recieved his phone yet?

now that they are in stock it should be with some of you by now
1- what are your first impressions of the device.
2- how solid does the build quality seem? is it too plasticy? how solid is the sliding and tilting mechanism ?
3- how good (stablility, speed, software) of the stock rom. seems HTC has started putting some really nice ROM since they released the HD.
4- whos gonna be cooking for this phone. any famous chefs
5- is the speaker phone really a lot better than other phones?
6- any disappointing things about it?
7- can we safely say that there is no GPS lag issues like the ones found in other QC-based phones
8- where did you get the phone and how much did you pay for it

I think nobody has it yet as launching date starts on june (I believe)
Unless someone has it for testing porposes...

I'm really excited about the Touch Pro2 coming to the US sooner than expected. I've had a Touch pro and Touch HD running at edge speeds for a while now. Finally I can get basically a Touch HD with full Qwerty board and 3G AT&T speed.
The Tg01 is exciting with a 1Ghz processor and 4.2" screen, but I've been missing out on 3G speed and a full qwerty for too long now.

^ agree bro, the TP2 is state of the art with 3G for us in the usa right NOW!
we can check out the TG01, Star, etc. when they come to us later...

Anyone got theirs delivered yet?

1) Does it have the FM radio?

you are the first one in xda to receive his tp2. dont feel shy share your experiance

It comes with a case in the retail box. It look like a leather pouch with a magnetic lock, the TP2 slide in from the side.
Have a look at the following unboxing video's;

RHODIUM owners come here !!!!!

Let's count here to see actually how many Touch Pro 2 owners are here
I'm guessing there are more visitors than owners on this rhodium site

Hi,
After Kaiser, Raphael, I have now a french Rhodium unbranded (unfortunatly for hard spl with samsung chip).

I bought mine from CLOVE.CO.UK on May 30th .
I had it sent to a friend's address in London as I couldn't risk loosing it or getting it stuck at customs here in Istanbul.
So I flew to London just for a day to pick it up from my friend )))
It was the most expensive phone I ever bought

Couldn't you just buy out HTC for that money?

I like to be the first to own some things and there is cost for that which I am willing to pay.
I remember flying to Germany to buy the Sony Ericsson P1i on the first date it was ever released......
The funny thing I went in the morning and flew back home the same day and the German police at the passport control couldn't understand why I would fly to another country to buy a phone and return home the very same day, he tought I was upto something else

If you figure out how please add "once it hits my carrier I will own it" because the US carriers have not released it yet.

Got it two weeks ago. Prefer SPB Mobile Shell 3 over TouchFlow3D.

I'm sorry it won't allow me.
But anyway , thinking of buying and ordering the the thing are two different things. You may think of buying TP2 but but decide on a Nokia N97 for example, this could affect the outcome of the Poll When you bought it or ordered it, you could vote here
Seems like so far only 66 of us , I doubt we could make it to 100 owners..

got one about a week back.

got mine for a while now and touchflo 3d beats mobishell on tp2.

Agree with Shingers here, having tried SPb Mobile Shell, I much prefer TF3D. Smooth, intuitive and well, just very pretty! (=
It's the thing that most impresses people when I take out my phone and *ahem* brag a little. I bought mine about two weeks ago. Unlocked, generic ROM, unbranded HTC, roughly 800 dollars.

GOt my tmobile one, for free

Got mine 3 weeks ago - ordered in uk! perfect companion so far with some bugs left...

Cracking Open the HTC One X ?

Does anyone one know if anyone has done one of those "cracking open" vids for the HOX yet ? I would be interested to see how it's set up inside. I'd also like to know if the 32GB internal memory is actually a micro-SD card that could be swapped for a 64GB at some point

I would be shocked if the internal memory was a MicroSD and not soldered to the board. It kind of defeats the purpose to make it non-removable and NOT give us the performance of a dedicated connection.

Shocked or not, it's what they did with the HD7. I wouldn't be surprised at all. A good, high speed SD card?...you'd never know the difference

Whatever is the cheaper option. That is what they did. Can pretty much guarantee it.

From a diagnostics, servicing & repair point of view it would be much cheaper and easier if it was an SD card.
Not sure about manufacturing. Probably about even.

Just wondering if the only way to open up the One X is to remove the LCD screen? If yes then what's the point of knowing if it's a 32mb SD card? Is the average joe able to open it up anyway?

A) Curiosity.
B) This is not about the average Joe. The average Joe does not crack open his phone, or root it, or install custom ROMs, or visit xda-developers.com. The average Joe has an iPhone.

do you not mean peeps with iphones are like sheep and scared to get a real phone LOL

Is there a doctor among us?
Put a HOX under X-ray (Turn it OFF first) and post a pic here.
We'll find out, if there is a memory card or something. Also, may be we'll see how to disassemble a HOX.

I think the HOX may be easier to disassemble that you might think.
I bought a gel skin case for mine which I take off fairly often because the HOX is so damn beautiful and nice to hold that it seems a crime to ruin it with a case.
Anyway, the case it quite a snug fit and I noticed when removing it that if I put my thumb on top of the polycarbonate just under the buttons at the bottom of the screen and firmly but gently flex it back I can snap the polycarbonate away from the screen by just a few millimetres. I can clearly see three little snaptabs sticking off the bottom of the screen that hold the polycarbonate in place. It snaps right back into place immediately.
I am too scared to try this right now but I think with further gentle pressure the whole outer casing would be levered away and you could lift all the innards out of the polycarbonate unibody.
There is clearly no "tool" access to the device so I assume that this is how it is assembled and disassembled.

BTW, here is a short video of the "opening" I mentioned above :

Yeah, y'know, I think I'll leave that to someone else.
Maybe someone who's already bricked theirs or got a DOA.
Mine's too new and shiny

So maybe this brings hope, that this is not a throw away phone or a send back to HTC service centre senario. Hopefully the battery could be user replacable in a few years time, once third party batteries become available.

gives me hope too...
even if it's a Li-Po, probably third parties will make a bigger battery for it, if it's possible.. >=)

Looks good to me. I'm considering it getting it.

Hi, I bought the same one (actually from the same seller). However the sad story is that it has not come yet. The seller was apologizing because there some problems with shipping due to some weather problems. Anyway I wonder if it works too. I worry that it will not fit very well since it now different shape then the one I had before. You can wait till my comes and I can tell you if it works.
