Hello:
I do not see a forum for Sprint's HTC Arrive. Another vote to create it!
I'm specifically attempting to disassemble the device to upgrade the memory card. But there is a new, special triangle-slotted screw I have never seen before. See attached.
So, a new forum dedicated to this device might help there.
That just looks like a standard tri-wing driver. If so, they're not hard to find.
Just use a jeweler's slot head driver on it.
Got it! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tri-Wing
Ordered from Amazon.

Same problem here. Thanks for the info!
FYI, The HTC Pro 7 is the same device. People have posted pictures in the HTC Pro 7 forum here, and have installed the 32 GB cards.
Download link missing?

What download link are you looking for? Pictures? There are a number of threads in the HTC Pro 7 forum about it. Use that forum to find more pictures and disassembly info.

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

Fine! As soon as I get one, I'll be happy...
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.

What, close the thread you mean? Why we should have to post to another thread about supposedly official ROMs I don't know
According to HTC site
"*This is a generic software update. Any additional software or settings provided by your mobile operator or company will be lost. If you require this customization, please contact your supplier first before upgrading."

At the moment, the forums are seeing a large number of threads such as this - all this thread seems to be doing is providing the notification and link - if you keep these all in one place it makes searching easier.
Also, stuff about ROMs usually goes in the ROM section of the forum, rather than the general section.
The best place would probably to put the link in the wiki actually, now that I think about it.
I do understand your point about the other thread tho as that links to another site anyway, and is aimed at Tom's releases. But then again if you post the link there it provides an alternative to his, so maybe it is a good idea after all.
I only commented as I had just seen about three threads in the Rom forums that were like this one and closed by Dave.
I know allot of us are waiting for it - but where is it?
Not one full English review of the HTC Desire - driving me nuts.

I'm sure if you checked it yourself, you'll find there isn't one FULL review yet. Everybody is waiting for the same thing, yet the phone is out in a week.

just wait 1-3 days and you will get it, .. as many people will get their hands on it soon
in the mean time, i highly suggest you read this review about the Legend from GSM Arena
when i read it, i almost forgot that it is the Legend's review not the Desire's they are pretty similar you know, and lots of things you will find their related to our beloved Desire
cheers
some XDA dudes will ge their Desire tomorrow and Saturday, they will certainly post their views.
Do remember the legend has less RAM, a smaller screen and a slower processor, and it will not run flash 10.1 other than that they seem really similar.
It looks doubtful that the Legend will ever support 802.11n where as the chip in the desire does support it and we are just waiting for software (official or cooked).
In that video I posted, the HTC UK rep says that the legend is to be considered the new Hero whilst the Desire is a new bread.
Since we all know that threatening to leave a network and asking for a PAK code will result in a free Desire you'd only take the legend if your spend was so low they give you the PAK code and say good bye (you still don't have to leave) or you want to buy it sim free.
That GSM Arena says the FM radio has RDS.
The mumbles I've seen about the Desire say the Desire doesnt have RDS.
I wonder which one is right.
Some Asian countries doesn't have RDS at all
What is rd5?

Never have used it but I would look into swappa.com All and only Android devices there man. Good Luck selling it.
do we know of a good place to get accessories for the gsm version besides hitting up google like we did for the phone? i want this pogo pin dock.
maybe we need a buyers guide. :good::good::good::good:
Try searching in the accessories sub-forum, you should have better luck. I am not gsm so I can't answer from experience, but if I were you the first place I would look is Amazon.
