Hardly an exciting subject, though just 'upgraded' my G Grand to 4.2.2., so far not really into the small changes, and might reflash 4.1.2.. Will see how the battery life compares, doubt there's any difference though, missing some off the user settings and stuff.
What do you guys think? If there is a link regarding this topic, or any knowledge on the pros/cons 412 vs 422 thanks in advance..... Maybe there is a link in this site with a subject already on this, so please leave a link..
Much thanks, and have a great week.....
My 2 cents worth for anyone thinking of going 422,are stay 412, though only flashed 422 today, so will give it a go for a week, and see....

hey everyone, im just stopping by since im starting to pull towards the TP2 after watching several review videos on it, but anyways im here to ask a couple questions about the touch pro 2.
since the TP2 doesnt have an LED flash, how important is the LED flash to you guys??
also how good of the quality of build does this device have? does it feel really solid and how also the tilt feature, how delicate is that?
the 1500mah battery, how great is the life on that?
and finally(for former TouchPro/Fuze users) is this worth upgrading?
would like to look foward from hearing from all you guys over here.
thnx
oh cmon guys, im looking forward to buying this device but i need some info first
I just switched from a Fuze. The Tilt2 is MUCH better. Stock AT&T ROM is much snappier than the stock Fuze ROM. Signal is SIGNIFICANTLY better. Screen is amazing. And lastly the speakerphone on the Fuze was pretty crappy, but this one is just fantastic.
In my opinion it is well worth the upgrade. You won't be sorry
If you search the forums there are alot of useful threads comparing the 2 devices.
Do you need the keyboard? Because HD2 will have a 1GHz processor...
Also, the RAM is quite few. Only 188MB available, and TF3D eats more than 54% of it...
well im kind of teetering between slimness or the use of a good keyboard, the 1GHZ seems like a promising procesor speed for the leo, the only thing is i hope FCC approves it, but for the mean time the tilt 2 seems like a good device to have for a little awhile, like i mentioned in the first post the lack of LED Flash is holding me back from buying the tilt 2, u guys got any other thoughts on the device?
Hi & Welcome,
For these generic questions, you'd find more help in the "Got Mine" sticky thread. It also helps keep the forum organised .
Thread Closed.
Thanks

I saw this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=596925
...and it got me thinking. (I know scary right?) ...but it would be a good idea to have benchmarks for all the roms out there. That way, you could actually see hard numbers to see the real differences between the roms. Now, I know nothing about the benchmark programs out there, so I was wondering if anyone had any experience on which ones were better than others. A quick search turned up
http://www.smartphone-freeware.com/tag-_benchmark.html
http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/benchmark
http://handheld.softpedia.com/get/Developer-Tools/Benchmarks/
http://www.pocketpcfreeware.mobi/tag-benchmark.html
So, my question is, anyone have any experience with any of these or something better? I wouldn't mind running some benchmarks myself to see the difference in performance between some of the roms.
Hmmmmm...
I thought for sure someone would reply to this. After further searching, seems like spb benchmark might be the way to go. Now, wouldn't it be a good idea to have benchmarks for all the roms? I would love to see the performance differences between them all. Any input?
HI Dougstoner,
Short answer here is probably no. At least that is the answer I got when I suggested a Rom Wiki that had a user rating system. I was told that cooks would not want to see how their roms compared to others.... go figure.
I think it is a great idea. I am thinking about making the wiki.. when I have time. So if you do these benchmarks I would love if you would share them there...
I think this is valuable info. Especially for those with limited time.
Thanks. And goo luck!

What's up Cameraddict? Thanks for the response btw...
Well, I'm not trying to have users rate the roms, I would just be interested in the performance differences between them all. I have installed spb benchmark, but it takes 30 mins to run the benchmark, so I'll have to wait until I get home first. I'll run it tonight, but I think it would be a great resource for everyone to see. How much easier would it be to see which roms actually run faster, or which one has better drivers for graphics? I think it could be used as a tool to see if there are improvements in rom updates, drivers, etc...
Also might help the cooks out to see which versions work better than others as far as functionality goes. Again, my intent is not to say one rom is better than others, just to see the specs of them.
I'll run it tonight and test the rom I'm currently using, but if enough people want to see this, I might start doing it for all the roms.
I'd be interested in reading about your comparisons.
actually i was wondering about other tp2 users' benchmark results also and started this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=586598
but only 2 people replied. and one of them had much higher results than me using a custom rom which kind of explains why this is important.
needless to say i think it's a great idea too and i will share my results when i get spb benchmark
Would be interesting to know how big of a difference a rom can make.

I've thought about this as well. I have a lot of experience with Wikidot and their modules, and could assist in building a system for users to review and rate ROMs, and various means of categorizing them if you're interested in some help.
I think it would be a great resource.
This is a great idea. I am willing to bench the custom rom I am using and report it in.
okay so i am recently changing over from android. and i understand i can have best of both worlds on this phone. if anybody would be kind enough to tell me how do i get android on my phone. and also how do you install roms. i really like the energy-roms. links to these items would be greatly appreciated. thanks guys. im a noob at this so please bear with me im new to windows phone. thanks & God Bless.

Thanks. i hit google last night and didnt go to bed till i found the info i needed. and i came across all of those pages except for the android one.
by the way. are you using a rom? if you are which one are you using and is there another that you recoomend me to use?
Thank you. Hope your next few days are filled with joy. God Bless.
Well generally what say is what most will say, after you have used the Hard sPL unlocker, i would recommend a simple Rom that has been stripped of all the bloat ware, to get a feel for the speed and responsiveness , then after you get bored with it, then try the other Roms that the fine chef have cooked.
Here is what i have been using, its simple and fast
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=811121
Kwbr is getting ready to update the Rom shortly with a newer version.
thanks i was getting stuff ready for when i my parents got me my phone this chirstmas. turns out the got me a unlocked HD2. so im guessing it works the same, since they both run windows 6.5 right?
I would head over to the HD forum and start reading, some may be the same but there will be differences ...i would still set up both phones with stock stripped Roms and compare them both...i still favor the Tilt 2 Pro... because of the keyboard

Read this thread then decide....tilt 2 has 3g the HD2 uses edge..

Hey guys! I am glad to say that I am making my return to android development! I've been spending a lot of time on my studies throughout the year and now it's time to jump right back into what i love doing the most. I know there must have been a lot that has happened since I left. More updates, patches, and such. I want to get back into the daily development for you guys but I need your help! Let me know what i've missed and what you would like to see in a ROM. Unfortunately I sold my Note 2 a while back to upgrade to the Note 3. While it is a better phone, I have not enjoyed developing for it because of the locked bootloader. That holds back a lot of potential and fun (lol). So I will need testers. I am a reputable developer with over 600 thanks. I have developed for the Note 2 before and got great feedback from this ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2419768
I also have much faster internet speeds now and can upload twice as fast as I used to. So this means more updates and releases! The only downside to my development is that I can't source build. I do not have linux anymore.
Please let me know suggestions for ROMs and who will be on board to help test and give me feedback.
Thanks!

On what wireless carrier are you using your Note 3?
I have already sent you a PM but figured it wouldn't hurt posting here either. I am wanting to test. I have done it once before and am not afraid of trying things on my phone. I consider myself techsavy.
Hardly an exciting subject, though just 'upgraded' my G Grand to 4.2.2., so far not really into the small changes, and might reflash 4.1.2.. Will see how the battery life compares, doubt there's any difference though, missing some off the user settings and stuff.
What do you guys think? If there is a link regarding this topic, or any knowledge on the pros/cons 412 vs 422 thanks in advance..... Maybe there is a link in this site with a subject already on this, so please leave a link..

My 2 cents worth for anyone thinking of going 422,are stay on 412, though only flashed 422 today, so will give it a go for a week, and see....

The only reason I flash 4.2.2 ROM is to flash a KitKat ROM afterwards. 4.2.2 basically sucks in my opinion.
