It would be time to get Raphale forums. The HTC Touch PRO is about to hit the shelves (hopefully soon!) and I would like to get some fiery discussion on that phone, especially when, where, and how to get it.

I believe it's going to be released late Q3/Q4, so not that soon! But since the X1 has a forum already, I agree it would be a good idea, and justifiable!

Start saving up now!
yeah want a raphael forum too.
about the price: i think it is around the price of a diamond. a bit more, but not much.
cause you won't for example have to pay 4GB internal memory.
thanks for making a new thread but i already requested under the "requests to mod and admin" sticky in this forum i guess admin is waiting for a official release date before forum is created.
Since no quote on price yet i am in no rush...

According to a news article about the presentation from HTC in Vienna ( http://derstandard.at/?id=3361660 ) its coming in the late summer, so thats Q2/Q3 and the estimate list price is said to be 699,- EUR, so pretty like Kaiser.
So I vote for forums now

Raphael..... not a Kaiser replacement...
If the X1 has in some way a bent shape when using the keyboard so you can see better the screen, why did not the Raphael was desinged like it like the Kaiser?
Is it that right after few months of raphael is out HTc will come the real replacement of our Kaiser???
I have not read anywhere about it....

It would be a mix of Kaiser / Raphel / 4GB internal... Just wait for 2-3 months for the announcements

The X1 has Sony branding all over it... Also, the X1s keyboard is not as good as the Kaiser/Universal (and the Raphael has a very similar keyboard to them).
I second the request for a forum for the "HTC Touch Pro" / Raphael.
Please give us a space to talk about this beautiful and full-featured device.
also suggesting a Raphael section - in most of other PDA forums there is already one...
Administration is aware of the need for a Raphael forum, it is being sorted out soon i believe
come one people.. raphael just passed the fcc: http://gullfoss2.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas/...e=N&application_id=836024&fcc_id='NM8RAPH800'

The Kaiser screen tilt is acheived by having the hinge more towards the middle of the screen, but the downside of this is that it takes more space, so the keyboard cannot have as many rows.
The Raphael keyboard is a 5 row design(Kaiser has 4), I guess you could not fit 5 rows of reasonably sized keys AND have a hinge to allow a Kaiser style tilt without it being too weak.
So what's the deal, this thing is on sale is it not? Where's the forum section?
And anyone have a link to where to get one? Either the HTC or the EU T-mobile version?

Not for sale yet... The UK is getting the HTC branded version at the end of August, so operator versions will probably be September/October and a US build one later than that.

Ok i will put it to admin and the other mods - was thinking the same thing the other day.
I'll have to second this again. The Cavalier could really use it's own Thread.
We need Cavalier forum please.
Please create the HTC Cavalier/Dopod C730/HTC S630 forum.
Thanks!
OK, I repost the request to other mods.
Support to have a Cavalier forum
Strange, very strange!!!
HTC Cavalier for the moment is the best WM Smartphone money can buy and still there is no separate forum for this device. Even HTC Oxygen (technicly the worst HTC Smartphone) has it's separate forum.
Strange, very strange!!!
Cheers,
Yes why!!!
Apart from the iME problem, it is fast, new tech for the scroll and light sensor..why it is ignored?
...is it really selling well enough to have it's own area? Other than when it was released, you really don't hear that much about it.

Right... There was a lot of info just prior to it's release, and then some reviews right after -- but it doesn't seem to have been picked up by a lot of carriers (at least here in the states). Have many of them sold?
Maybe they should create a forum for 'Other' smartphones that never really took off, and you could talk about it there?

I know one thing that Cavalier is selling better than Oxygen, StarTrek, Monet and Breeze and finally it has better techical specs than any other smartphone on the market. Why carriers aren't picking it up, I really don't know and don't care as I don't buy phones with contract.
So your idea of "other" forum is good for above named phones but not for Cavalier.
There is another thing, HTC still did not anounce Cavalier for the rest of the world (except Asia), maybe this is why carriers aren't picking it up. If you want to get the device simply order it without a contract (for now). Even if this device goes on sale only on Asian Continet that does not meen that other people wont get it and that "it will not take off".
Cheers
Sounds like you're happy with it, must be a nice device.

Yeah, I have been part of those 40+ pages on HoFo but that really just talks about the phone. I would like to know some new hacks and such.
My thoughts exactly. That is a user forum, not a hacker forum. I have several hacks I would like to post in that forum. For example:
After successfully unlocking the Application / security locks, I have succeeded making cleartype Japanese fonts from Meiryo (MeiryoKe), reducing size of fonts for reading and composing messages, and size of fonts for pop up menus (but not buttons).
I also succeeded to divert have incoming SMS messages get delivered to Pocket Outlook instead of the Softbank Mail application, but still have MMS (S! Mail) functionality handled by that application. (It seems that I can send outgoing SMS by either application)
I also figured out how to remap buttons and found out how to disable the Softbank Mail button on the Joggr (which was pretty annoying because I would accidentally hit it all the time, so I had to disable the entire Joggr).
I'm looking for information about how to enable Internet Connection Sharing - I haven't been able to get this working yet.
There's no forum, so I'll post here . . .
khammo01: have you posted your overall experience with X02HT anywhere yet? I'm using X01HT now -- WM6 in eigo. I'm guessing the X02HT came from Softbank already in English, right? If I switch over to the X02HT, I assume that the level of hacking I will have to do is much less than what I went through to get my X01HT working. The hacks you are mentioning are fairly minor tweaks, so am I correct in my assumption?
Thanks!

TouchXperience project progress
Written by Julien Schapman
Saturday, 27 September 2008 07:32
To make you patient until the public release, I decided to give you regular news about TouchXperience project progress and to give you more details about some TouchXperience features. Don't hesitate to make suggestions in the dedicated forum.
The first public release will be (finally!) available in October (2008!), TouchXperience will be available for HTC TyTN, TyTN II, Touch Pro, Touch Diamond, and later Touch HD. Other devices may be supported in the future and non-HTC touch devices (such as Samsung Omnia/i900) are not excluded, but be aware that I need to invest in new devices to work on it, and developping for non-HTC devices may take longer because I use to develop on HTC hardware only.
Site has exceeded bandwidth... he didn't sneak a release out last night did he?
Lol it's might just be the case. Site has never been down since he took it online. I've been checking the release status frequently.

Following some site's the rom is now downloadable. But the site won't work because of the traffic. Also it's possible that some other company has bought the product from him... You never know.
So maybe it won't be downloadable at all. But ofcourse he won't sell it, will he?
Can't wait untill there is some download link available.
Ok taking this back, just read that he won't sell it. Since he said it himself. Hope there will soon be a new mirror. I really respect this

That last link is for a new item posted on 1st August
I'm sure if it was released he would have popped in to say so. Looks like something caused a traffic surge though, maybe he got slashdotted lol.
Hmm....
Yeah, that is pretty interesting... I guess we'll have to follow up over the weekend to see what the truth is!
Try clicking on the link in the Dutch forum, it sends you to the "Site has exceeded bandwidth" screen. Schaps may have released it but has been too busy to post it here. Could also just be a demo or test app...
Will keep trying and update later..
Unfortunately the recent release of the Android 1.0 source code (http://source.android.com/download) and the HTC ROMS that will surely follow may make this project moot.
Kaiser ROM Development
Hermes Android ROM Discussion
Especially considering that Windows Mobile 7 may not be out until 2010.
But so goes the software industry...
Not really as the developement of Android for the Hermes isn't exactly powering along and the general consensus is that it may not be possible to port Android to the Hermes. Something to do with the fact Hermes is a ARM4 processor and Android was made to work on ARM5.

i can't find anything that speaks for a download and the first comment from bing says there is no download so we have to wait until we don't need it anymore becuase we can controll our new high tech devices with our mind or so...

But the Hermes doesn't have much real life left, in fact the Kaiser is getting a bit old, too. At least as far as mobile devices go.
The Kaiser is not even a year old. Hell AT&T does not even have a replacement yet for the tilt.

I liked d bigger screen of htc pro 2 and 5 row keypad over 4 rows of x1...
But I really really miss the 3.5 mm jack on touch pro2
Tp2 n X1 both are sexy... Awesome mobiles but x1s made of metal which is really cool..
Hardware specs are almost same except these two differences...

This is so true!!
But it doesn't have to take a few months for thwe cracks to appear.
Some Xperias have had cracks out of the box.
My xperia cracked 5 times and then I got tired of it and got a refund.
The xperia is a very competent device, but the cracks make it useless.
I too wanna go for tp2 .... Any serious issues seen in tp2 ?? It will come to India after june15 th may be so I wanna checkout d hardware defects .. If u know any then mention it ......
I've had a few Xperias, as have some of my friends, and for us there's been no issue with cracks; it's not a problem everyone faces!
I've replied to your same question in the Xperia section, and reckon you should try both. I'm going to get TP2, compare with my Xperia, then sell the one I don't want, as both are great devices with relative good and bad points about each.
I would go for the TP2 because:
1. Bigger screen
2. Better keyboard
3. WM6.5 upgrade with TF3D v2
4. Tilt Screen
Only let down 3.5mm jack, blah! So let it be!

Not yet Orb, I'm waiting for my carrier tmobile to get it 7/22 so that I can have a less expensive upgrade, warrenty, and the correct 3G bands! But, Don't know if I can wait that long
How about U?
I have an xperia x1 for around 2 months now and its been a good and bad experience with it. From time to time its really slow because I use the stock rom and i hate the media player compared to the iphone. The good thing i like about it is definetely build quality as everyone who has seen it are all shocked of how sexy it is and the fact that I love the 3.5mm head phone jack as well as a radio panel thumbs up lol. Right now I'm already starting to take a look on the touch pro 2 as its really a pain to browse on the xperia but slider is super slick how this helps
TP2 without a doubt
TP2 all the way.
The X1 is a good phone but has many problems. I had one for a few months but in the end let it go as I just found myself getting more and more frustrated with it than actually enjoying it. With the TP2 your will be paying a premium being new if you have the money the choice is easy.
A major positive You will be getting great software/rom updates to come with WM 6.5 just around the corner which will give the TP2 a new face lift.
Just bought one tonight so I should have mine in a few days can't wait.
God damn you people and you're retarded post about this vs that and that vs this >.> How about you do this:
1. Compare specs of the two phones from the sites
2. Go to the individual sections of the phone and check out what people have to say about it.
3. If you see someone with both teh phones you're comparing, ask them.
Stop posting threads like this because people will only respond in their choosing. And you're asking in A TP2 section >.> Of course the answer will obviously be TP2 by majority. Try asking in the X1 section and you'll find the same for the X1.

I know it's hard to wait. I have been waiting since it was announced So jealous of the British users. Makes me want to go back and live in the UK again. Ha ha ha...
We don't get it until mid June. I don't know if I can wait either and just over it over the web... but that will cost me twice as much and I won't get any discount packages (data) from my carrier. Damn, it's a dilemma.

Yeah, he lacks the logic.
But to the OP, if you want an excellent MP3 player, get the Xperia X1
It's media panel is the best looking and the new version is really fast and intuitive. It also has 3.5 mm headphone jack. It also has a flash LED for the camera unlike the TP2.
Other than that Touch Pro2 is better than the Xperia.
I had this dilemma too but ruled out the X1 due to the cracks issue, some people have returned this phone like 7 times.
I'd choose the Diamond 2 over the X1 let alone the TP2.

To wait or not wait
ive been using my xperia for 7 months now very good device, but not stock though you have to put touch-it rom or touch-x rom on the x1 basically the same UI as the touch pro 2...so if you get the X1 you can try out the UI and see how u like it ... great device i would say i have my bad days with it mainly cause of the rom i was trying at the time but great device...and ill get the touch pro 2 when it release for ATT to of course...who says people cant have more than one phone
guys...i'm in a dilemma and thought you could help me...
maybe this isn't the right section to do so but...didn't have the idea where else to post this
should i swap my hero for a touch pro 2
i love senseUI and android as it is beautiful,simple and so on,but lacks some software (which is not too important but...still counts)
i checked prices and tp2 is still more expensive (maybe because of the OS)
i have experience with abut 15 htc wm devices but never got hands on tp2...
so based on hardware vs hardware and your experience...what do you suggest
Hi farkub,
If I´m not mistaken you had an Universal right?
Go for Rhodium with no doubt!
Is the best hardware keyboard device to this date and 2010 models won´t be better.
Hero is ok but Android is too young and immature for now, perhaps in the future...
Just my opinion
Cheers and hope to see you on this section soon
nah i had artemis,himalaya,magician,hd,hero,diamond,hermes,herald,kaiser, and several more..but you probably ran into me in general and hermes section
i saw your poll...and thank you for it...
as for the immaturity i thought so too
but half of it went away when i got hands on hero...and the other half still stays (birth dates tell for themselves)...maybe 2.1 firmware is better but too bad i'll not have it when the htc's 2.1 upgrade comes out hehe
thanks for the opinion orb,much appreciated
as i thought i will go for tp2...at least for fun because it's a thrill to change and trade phones and to discover every of them
as we all know...there will never be a perfect one (the technology goes on and it's not quite good for the market to give the perfect one to the crowds)
hardware to hardware...
TP2 wins .. no brainer!!!!!
In all specs, TP2 is better than Hero!
Software???
I had the HTC Diamond
Windows Mobile sucks!!! It just does not have that many good software out there.. and when you find them.. Prices are higher.
I was waiting for the Diamond 2 to come out.. but got tired of waiting so I tried the Hero...
Wow... I dont see me going back to WM!
Hope that helped!

i really liked android...and i still do,but this was a clean swap 1 for 1,and this still is a phone with better value...and i'm thinking about selling the tp2 already...it's brand new,no scratch on it....with all goodies...so if anyone wants we can talk...but till then i'm gonna enjoy it while i can
and believe it or not...i'm a windoze hater
but software forces me to use it...both in pc and ppc worlds
(but still i use ubuntu most of the time on my pc hehehe)
thank you dan and orb
TP2 owns every other phone I've had, including the sucky iPh*** 3gs..
Hardware vs hardware, it's the smoothest WM phone I've had, using Valkyrie's rom of course.
Update radio, and mess with the settings a little, and you go yourself a bestfriend.
Imo, I think android's are crappp.
oh yeah which rom do you people suggest
valkyrie seems to be a decent one....probably energy roms are good to but that tone of bluer really irritates me
and for the radio...i put blackstone radio rom to a diamond and the battery life doubled...so is the 1.17.**.** blackstone radio also good for this one or you suggest other maybe
and for messing with stuff...that's what keeps me with WM
i'm a tweak freak
Hi
If you are thinking on sell your TP2 let me know (PM)
As for ROM try Energy phoenix (Sense 2.1) this version:
EnergyROM_28008_RHODIUM_04.Dec.2009_Standard
If you can´t find it let me know and I´ll send it to you
Cheers,
is everything blue? ...hope not...i will pm you...but i have to find a way to get the payment...since accepting payments via paypal doesn't work here in bosnia (or that's at least what one guy told me)....any ideas?

Do you have a paypal account already?
If so PM me and send me your email account and I can try making a "test deposit" if 1USD to see what happens
I think it should work

i definitely agree with this. I love android but still to young for me. and the TP2 is an awesome phone, best htc i've ever owned and i always wow people when i pull it out. wouldn't have it any other way!
People know the hero, most peeps haven't seen the TP2 and the keyboard and screen blow them away. i've converted 2 crackphone users over to TP2!! {applause}

Great for that!!!
I know most of you who clicked this thread would probably think this is another thread that asked if it was possible. Well I'm here to share the great news to HD2 owners... http://htcpedia.com/forum/showthread.php?t=2381 read it up!
Apparently a russian team has been working on it and looks like theyre working (from screenshots) and a beta release should be soon
PS MOD: if it is against the rules to paste links from htcpedia pls delete thread. thanks

Again, no video. It's easy to fake screenshots. On the other hand, why would Tom destroy his reputation?
Let's wait and see...
I think I'm going to keep my HD2 a little longer. Not that it's likely that I will prefer WP7S over WM6.5 or Android, but I'm curious to try it...

tom is a pretty reputable source, i dont think that he'd do that either.
It was also confirmed by a Mod in the HD2 ROM development thread. Lets wait and see..

easy to fake a screen shot with shadow and glare and perfect reflection...
A prominent person such as him is not a person who would let his name get dragged in the mud like that, I'm inclined to believe this is the real deal. Its alot sooner than I couldve ever hoped for, but with the lack of software available at this point anyone trying this without an IRONCLAD way of downgrading is a hopeful idiot IMO.
Still, fantastic news nonetheless.

Of course, if you display it on the phone.
Very easy, actually.
Well, Tom actually says the pictures are coming from Russian hackers, and I'm a member at the forum where this was posted initially. These guys are very reputable and have proved more than once that they have some good sources, but they could play a joke as well.
Good sources? Afaik they just hacked an HTC server.
But you're right, those guys are credible.
Too bad they couldn't make a video, though
Video is up guys
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJCFdojbjh8
And that video doesn't look like it's that Throttle Launcher WP7 skin?
not to me...
I say bring it on though
Video seems suspicious to me as you can't see if it's really an HD2 - all you can see is a black shape. But then, these people who have done and confirmed this are indeed reputable...
My prayers have been answered. Granted, I figured it would just be a matter of time... just not this SHORT an amount of time!!!

Guys, this is tom_codon. Just have a look about XDA, I very much doubt he would do this.
As for me, I read in the (other forum) thread that you cannot go back to WM6.5 once installed, as they had to replace the bootloader to get it to work - so this is definitely out of the question for me...
video 2 for all the doubters....

If they came this far to get it on there then I'm sure that will get figured out as well.
