Verizon Touch Pro2 leaked photo...

I have no clue why we're only hearing chatter about the Sprint version's leaked photo, but I just found this on phonedog. No clue where it came from, but thought I would share.

Let the Verizon release date rumors begin.

im getting this phone on the verizon network

With Sprint & Verizon's designs, it's the first time I see a locked-device that's more kick ass looking than an unlocked... Love the black keyboard. To bad here in Belgium we haven't got one of these

According to this guy, his contact at Verizon told him to expect a July release. http://www.examiner.com/x-11295-LA-...Touch-Pro2-headed-to-Verizon-possibly-in-July
I'll believe it when I see it, but that would be perfect.

I wonder if AT&T gets it the same time frame? I'm on ATT and this is the first time I'm excited about getting a phone that they will carry instore. I've been running at Edge speeds for too long on my Touch Pro 1 and Touch HD. I'm ready to get my 3G speed and full qwerty back. Plus a screen size nearly the same as the HD's.

Bored and did some quick math. No point really, other than just boredom. It would be nice if this timing worked out, but I'd obviously prefer it much sooner.
Yes, I also realize that Sprint released the TP on the last day of confidentiality, but hopefully it really doesn't take until Halloween.
Touch Pro
FCC Approval - July 1
Confidentiality - October 19
Sprint Release - October 19 (110 days from FCC Approval)
Verizon Release - November 24 (146 days from FCC approval)
Touch Pro2
FCC Approval - May 20
Confidentiality - October 31
Sprint Release - Unknown (September 7 is 110 days)
Verizon Release - Unknown (October 13 is 146 days)

I sure hope that's not the case. I've already been waiting a couple months to upgrade and make my work life a helllllll of a lot easier. If I had confirmation that was how long it was going to take, I would probably get the TP1 and see about upgrading to the 2 whenever.
I need this thing for work. And 3g is a big part of it. This not knowing is killing me.

I wish the photo was still there.
Please tell me you saved it!!

[Q] What phone are you coming from

Like the title says, what phone are you coming from to the ET4G?
Feel free to suggest additional phones to be added to the phone list, max is 50 i believe.
Phones to be added to poll:
Phones added to poll 2011 09 19

HTC Evo 4G, still a great phone but I want that led screen and crazy speed.
I might miss the 2-3 day battery life though, but hope the development is strong for Epic Touch 4G.

Its not on the list but I will be coming from the HTC Touchpro 2.

Evo 3d.. Not what I thought it would be sadly

Coming from Sprint's Nexus S 4G.

None of the above
Had the evo 4g for over a year and absolutely loved it, got the evo 3d and returned it before 30 days was up.
And since I sold the OG Evo, ive been on a temporary palm pre in waiting for this phone

Samsung Epic 4G

Original HTC touch with android flashed on it. Finally upgrading to Sero-p

Og evo 4g by htc

First smartphone here... looking to dive into development as far as I can! (squee!)

Will miss my Bonsai, but I am hopeful that this device will receive great dev support.

im coming from the epic but wow, htc sure is losing alot of evo users huh? i was actually a long time htc user once lol

Thanks everyone, moving to Epic touch 4g

Wanted to take the time and thank everyone in this forum for answering all my questions for the last year while I had my great Evo. I will be picking up my Sprint Epic Touch 4G on Friday. I have learned so much on rooting, troubleshooting and helping my friends come over to Android from the iphone community.
Thanks again and best of luck to everyone and their Evos.

This goes in General.

I agree
i agree this comment should be moved to the general forum area. i will however say that one my friends just his early and it's a nice phone, but the screen is just hair bigger than the EVO and at the moment could not see changing just yet. enjoy your new phone.

General is valid, but he at least made the effort to give kudos to those that made his stay with the OG better. I too took a look at the new toy, but have to agree...will wait until October/November. Specs and all are very good, just dislike the white (grey) and the web browsing was a bit lacking in the pixel translation (too many dot..dot..dot..with sudden changes in zoom/rebound if you will). Even made it to the register...was very tempting mind you, but will take a bit of "flawless" to get me off my OG since I don't really play a lot of games or watch movies on the "PHONE". I believe those that did make the move will be pleased, but not as much as those that wait a couple months..hmmmm.

Made the plunge
well Friday i decided to change to the Epic 4G Touch, and have to say i couldn't have made a better choice. great phone and the best part is that it's not much bigger than the EVO, don't get me wrong the EVO was and is a great phone.

[Q] Any ideas on 4.3 official for t-mo

Does any one know when the 4.3 Leak will get here for T-mobile galaxy note 2. i see the one in the AT&T forum. just wondering how long before we get this Leak

Already a thread for this here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2458581

If the Note 2 is really that awesome as you call it, why jump ship? Heck why worry about the software update at all?
Just saying. It is a great device but i wont ditch it just because an update takes a while.
I have a HTC One, Nexus 4 and Note 2.
When i put 4.3 on my HTC One i made that my primary phone. When the Note 2 gets 4.3 ill make that my primary for a while.

Guess that sounded disgruntled. Sorry bout that, didn't mean to come off that way.
It's just that I've had android since cupcake and the longer I continue with android the more I realize one of my favorite parts is the expedited progression of it. Over the years I've become quite find of the updates. I guess you can say it's become something I look forward to. It's not that I loath this device by any means but my preference is leaning towards the update facet of it. The only logical conclusion to meet my happiness is climbing aboard the nexus train.

That makes more sense.. I was like, whoa, this guy thinks the phone is awesome why is he jumping ship. LOL.
I think im in a unique position working in the wireless biz fixing / repairing them and buying and selling them. .
Im looking forward to my Note 2 getting 4.3. Im actually going to make it my daily phone for a week just to test it out again. My Nexus 4 was my daily phone as well till i put 4.3 on my HTC One.. Its a natural progression.
Now i see your whole statement in a different light, less angry and more hey time to try something different..

Nah.. not angry in the least. I think I'm just ready for a change of pace that's all.

NEWS: HTC phones officially the best at stopping bullets

Hi HTC Owners...I've read this news online and wanted to share it with you guys...

One California man is thanking his lucky stars that he decided to buy an HTC Evo 3D. Yesterday morning the phone stopped a bullet that would otherwise have hit him in the chest.
It’s a scene right out of an old Western flick, except that the pocket-sized Bible has been replaced by a 4.3-inch Android smartphone. A look at the back of the Evo reveals that its most volatile components (the battery) played an important role in stopping the slug.
Obviously the victim will be in the market for a new phone now. If HTC’s marketing department has an ounce of common sense, they’ll leap at the chance to work this into their Iron Man campaign and get a brand new phone into this guy’s hands as quickly as possible.
This isn’t the first time an HTC phone has stopped a bullet, either. You may recall an eerily similar incident that occurred back in 2011, where an Atlanta nightclub valet’s life was saved by an Evo 4G. Yes, that’s another Sprint variant.
Is it possible that the Sprint/HTC collaboration is yielding some breed of superphones? Clearly one other thing Droid does is stand up to small caliber rounds.
Unapologetically plastic? That’s a slogan that works for some. Others might prefer the sound of something a bit more dramatic, and if HTC can’t find a way to capitalize on a second live-saving, bullet-stopping phone then the company deserves to be absorbed by a competitor and fade into oblivion.

That's like the best kind of marketing...

haha, yeah...It's true, HTC could replace the mobile and use it for marketing... It is definitely the best build in the android mobile market...

They should really use that for marketing, would catch the attention of people with cracked phones!

New business opportunities for HTC. Manufacturing of body armour.
