Loved you very much. Moved onto a Backflip. Couldn't take the lack of support for the speaker on Android. For those of you looking for an Android phone I recommend the Backflip... It's slicker, and even better: it's free with a new plan on AT&T
Even still good luck with this Android port.
If anyone wants to buy a used T-Mobile Touch Pro 2 I'm selling it on eBay and it's only at 125$ bidding so far...

The backflip is literally the worst Android phone made. Just trying searching google or side loading apps on it. You will be unpleasantly surprised.

Yeah, I'm moving to a iPhone next week and will also be putting my TP2 on eBay. Good luck on ur eBay auction.

LOL
There is a reason that with a new contract the backflip is free and the TP2 is still $250....
Motorola makes crap.

wow
this thread is pointless

It's ok, I just got a TP2 so there will always be new users!

no one cares... what is this? craigslist? go advertise somewhere else.

wow just wow

ok honestly you just made the WORST decision in history! why the heck would you drop the TP2 for the crappiest phone on the planet? slicker and better is more like uglier and horrible, worst perfomance, and of course Android Market is locked down, you cant load any third party apps! and why you didnt get the Aria? its 10000x more better but whatever and moving to a backflip just because you couldnt get speaker support on the Android port is a real unacceptable excuse, its a PORT! TouchPro2 was made for Windows Mobile, dont expect the devs to make everything to work in one shot, it seems like you insulted the port project by moving to an actual android because lack of sound, dont worry youll regret the whole decision!
ugh my venting session is done -.- total pointless thread, sorry but i just had to rant, because thats the worst decision ive seen from a consumer

xero_racer, roast much lol, I agree with you and all, cause Im like big time trying my best to get the sound working, and I am a noob when it comes to all of this, but im still tryin cause I speak tiny amounts of C++.and I can usually figure stuff out, and this kinda upset me cause that just makes me feel like i'm wasting my time towards something that people wont appreciate...

@reefer
Yeah. I haven't heard anything good about the Motorola Droid or the Droid X. /s
Just because one phone cost more than another doesn't mean squat.

Odd. The droid is one of the best performing phones on the market, period. The build quality is unusually high for Motorola. I'm sure the Droid X follows suit, the specs are nothing to laugh at.
Motorola Android phones that have extremely LOW build quality and are also low spec'ed:
Cliq
Cliq XT
Backflip

always liked the nexus one for a native android phone, just not a phone i feel like buying though.

Nice. Motorola's cell phones almost shut their entire mobile division down. The droid was their saving grace, but the backflip and the cliq have been plagued with problems, including a possible lack of upgradability to eclair without rooting. Lack of sound is to be expected in a build that's still in development, I hope you didn't get this pone with the sole intent of installing android.
Sorry about your lack of taste, but you should expect to be flamed when opening a thread bashing an excellent piece of hardware.

ive been thinking about switching to an android phone. but not a backflip. its horrible. its slow, ugly, outdated, have you tried using that thing they call a keyboard? my brother has an aria and i love it, but id prefer something like a touch pro 2 with android. i might settle in the future for something like a nexus one with an htc sense rom. a sense rom is whats tempting.

Have u ever used a backflip or cliq?

Totally second that lol

what about the Samsung Epic 4G. It has almost the same form factor as the tp2 but a larger screen.
I cant wait to get that in gsm.

The Backflip is not that bad depending on what type of user you are. If you active in this forum then most likely it is not the phone for you. My wife got one and she loves it. She is not a power user though. She likes to make phone calls, text messaging, the occasional photo upload, very light web surfing and facebook. She has no interest in side loading apps or any of that other stuff. For her the backflip suites all of her need.
For anyone else here that would like to switch over to a native Android phone I suggest you take a look at the Samsung Captivate. It is a highly anticipated phone and is supposed to be just as powerful as the Droid X. It releases this coming sunday the 18th of July. For those of you who can't live without a keyboard then you maybe out of luck cause the Backflip is the only Android phone on AT&T witih a keyboard.
I myself am a power user who needs the latest and greatest in both hardware and software. I though have grown very tired of Windows Mobile and the daily reboots just to keep it running well enough to use. I am also out of patients waiting for a full working port of Android. The developers here do an awsome job and I am not puttingi them down. I just want to switch to Android and I want to do it yesterday. I to have put my Tilt 2 up on Ebay and will be purchasing the Captivate this coming Sunday.

Samsung Epic 4G/Captivate/Vibrant/Fascinate (all versions of the Samsung Galaxy S) looks like the go-to phone if you're leaving XDAndroid. I'll probably be getting the Vibrant once it's released on T-mo.
Nothing against the Rhodium, but mine's beat up (probably only good for parts) and I don't normally keep a phone as long as I've kept this one. If anyone needs a t-mobile Touch Pro 2 for parts or whatever, PM me after the 15th.

Woah
Am i missing something or did any one realize he spelled goodbye wrong?

Talked to a cell phone rep... wasn't encouraging

My wife and I were at the mall today and I went into a Rogers store (Canadian cell provider), and was comparing the Focus to my Quantum.
A sales monkey came over to see if I needed help and we started chatting. I asked him if the wp7's had been selling he kinda laughed nervously and said he hasn't seen a rep sell one yet. He mentioned that one concern is the lack of multi-tasking. I kinda find that hard to believe. That used to be the rallying cry of all anti-apple people, yet they sold like crazy. And I've yet to see one 'in the wild'. Anecdotal I know, but kinda disappointing. I think it's a fantastic OS, I thought more people would be into it.

Many people are into it.
The sales man is only a sales man. He only wants to sell you what ever he thinks he can make money off.
As it stands the multitasking functionality is about the same as the iphone, but with MANGO on its way, that will be fixed.

Don't worry, generally sales rep don't know what they are talking about, they just know the basic/general stuffs.

If I'm the sales officer,I would not reckon this device to any customer,until 2nd gen of devices or mango are released.
@FooisM, most of the consumers not even know what is WP7,so,whats the point telling them about Mango?lol....
@JC_agga, yea true,they just know basic and general stuffs,that is what ordinary or normal customers want.

you have to do your own homework... sales ppl will sell u what they suppose to or get more commission or old stocks....
i changed 3 Bluray 3D DVD players in past 4 months, as i trusted the sales man....

Not around here sadly. From the few stores around my place, if you don't have an Iphone, that makes you an idiot to them.

To be fair even after all the debacle i've been through with my Omnia 7 I would still reccomend WP7. The OS is just fantastic.
Samsung phones however... I will not reccomend!

Agree perfectly!!!!!! OS brilliant! Samsung has let me downnnnn hardware problems to often!

I love my sammy Focus. When I went to the ATT store to get my wife the same phone, the salesman said good things about the phone, asked me about my experience. I didn't get any anti-wp7 vibe from my att store, but ymmv. By the time I decide to make a purchase, I find that I generally know a lot more about the items than the saleperson. Not always, not generally so.

In Portugal when I went to buy my Omnia 7in January the salesguy had a Mozart and he loved it, almost forced me into WP7.. LOL
No regrets about the OS nor about Samsung... My Omnia is running 7392 always officially updated and no problems so far...

Yeah, I don't know why ppl complain about Samsung. I think they're a great hardware company and I'm very happy with my Omnia 7. Before I had a Samsung Wave with bada, and it was nice too !! No problems at all !!
I didn't have any problems with the update on the Omnia 7 as well.

Well, if he is a cell phone salesman he is either very young probably not very knowledgeable or if older probably made a lot of mistakes in life to end up at that point.... In either event I wouldn't worry about it. Just enjoy your phone and rock on.

isn't this like letting a car sales man telling you what to buy? If you're going to lay down 500$ you better do your research before walking into any store (or you deserve what you get).

Interesting game

http://windowsphoneawesomeness.wordpress.com/2012/04/06/xbox-games-got-expensive/

well I think its the developer's choice to put the price and MP cannot challenge it. If you think its just too expensive, just don't buy it. as simple as that.

And it has got a review too in chinese which says "Garbage" LOL
I have a feeling its a mistake and they will fix it once they notice it. Or maybe he is to desperate

Lol, did u guys read the description? Unlimited version, the paid version has smiley faces. I think it's totally a joke

What sort of developer in his right mind would charge for a non-Xbox game - £218.99?
It's not even £2.99 !!

When Windows Phone first came out there was an app call "Im rich" for $999.99

Same with the iphone. It did nothing and a few people actually bought it. Then they complained that they bought it.

I feel so too! Paying that much money even on internet makes me a little skeptical let alone on a phone's marketplace!
Sad thing is unlike Android (which is full of malwares) we can't report such apps or atleast flag them. It might help if users could flag such apps for re-review by the marketplace team, might keep the place clearner.

Meh.. Its not great, but it's okay. You would never see me wearing one. I do, however, have my eyes on the Note 3. I own the s4 currently, but have always had a slight desire for the Note. I wasn't too sure about holding that monster up to my ear, but now that I have converted myself to only using a Bluetooth, I think I might JUMP (pun intended) on it.

I already have a Samsung smart watch... I pull it out of my pocket, press the button on the top-right, and I can see what time it is. Among other things it also makes phone calls, records video, and is quite adept at just generally being pretty awesome. :laugh:

I don't see the necessity for the smart watch, especially since it has to be paired with a phone. It seems cool and all, but I think it's far too limited to be used regularly, intuitively speaking, and is also a bit pricey and gimmicky, imo. Of course, I'm sure some will come along and sing of it's praises, but to that poor misguided chap, I simply reply: bellow your misguided attempts of impression to someone else, for I remain thoroughly unimpressed!

Instead of a smart watch, i would rather a Star Trek style communicator badge.
The Note 3 does look like a decent upgrade from the N7000.
One thing i would like to see in a smartphone is a digital radio receiver, rather than (or in addition to) FM. I know digital radio isn't as ubiquitous as FM - and the standard varies from place to place (DAB+ here in Australia, iirc). But it would be pretty neat, and certainly innovative.

Sent from your phone. You should be careful where you leave that thing.

I definately wouldnt mind having the new Galaxy Note 3. That 5.7 inch screen tho. holy ginormous. I can't wait for the system dump though. I wanna port the new multi window that they have. It looks awesome! And that watch is insane. Wonder if it will work on the S4, wouldn't see why not!

Samsung confirmed the watch will work with the GS4 when they update it to 4.3.

I'd rather wait for Colin Farell's (Total Recall movie) cellphone on the palm of his hand.

So that means it will never work on the T-Mobile GS4 since they don't know how to update us

im more interested in how the nexus 5 will turn out. The note 3 is good n all, but its too big for me, and s pen doesnt really grab me either. One of many good things i like about switching from sprint to tmobile is that switching phones is so much easier. ill have my s4 as a home phone and my nexus 5 as a going out device.
And seeing how t-mobile is dragging their feet with updating us without even giving us a reason, the nexus line is that much more appealing

What do you guys think of the new iPhone 5S?

I'd love to see what Apple counters with xD

I would just like T-Mobile and Samsung to get me a phone that a) works with Bluetooth without breaking up; b) works with Speaker without breaking up, and c) actually does what it is supposed to do - when I want it to do so, regardless of where I am.
I really don't see this thing (S4) any better than my Bionic!

Coming from Iphone to Android again

Hey guys, I've been out of the android world for a while and I'm tired of the strict policy of iphone to change stuff and do stuff, and ... So I'm looking at different options, I heard that the note 7 has issues getting very hot, with the speaker, etc... I'm a note guy but I'm afraid to spend so much money in a defective device, so... Is it still defective? When is the note 8 coming out? Should I buy another phone?
Thanks :good::good:

The phone runs extremely cool. Running hot is not a problem. Although I suspect you are trolling, I will answer anyway. Looking to buy a recalled phone is not a smart choice. Wait for the S8 or Note 8 if you are going to switch.

lol did it really seems like I was trolling? hahahah sorry lol. No, I'm serious, I have a charging problem on my iPhone and besides what I said I want to switch. I was looking now at some videos on youtube and they are saying that the note 8 is coming up BUT I'm assuming it'll be for September or so, I can't wait that long, this charging problem pisses me off, so... what alternatives would you guys suggest to the note 7, I really like the note series...
EDIT: I think I'll go with the 7s edge...

The new S8 will be coming in a couple of months, why would you want to buy an S7 now?

Well I didn't know that but I just bought it right now!! and I love it!!! Honestly I'm the type of guy that can stay with a phone until 2 more come out, unless you are rich or you do it for bussiness it's a real waste of money to change so often, but thanks for the heads up, now... time to root it!!! Damn I'm so lost right now ahaha I haven't been in the android world for a while

Note 7 is so awesome, I love/d it. For me I never had problems of hot battery, not on first gen, nor on second gen. Im not a gamer tho. Highest i went to was 34c.
Obviously i cannot recommend N7, one is due to recall (which is bogus) and two is because most are deactivated via IMEI + some other sh1t. My 1st gen is still working on rogers tho and my gf having a "blast" lol
Kinda envy her. So for now im playing with my N7 on wifi and for everything else using LG G3 which i like but it does feel light years behind.
If you love the stylist phone then you have no choice but to wait for N8, unless we could figure out how to unblock N7 but for now most are unsuccessful, specially Canadian versions.
From what i've heard S8 should be great, so there is another good choice for you and by that time Im sure LG G6 is going to come out as well which looks good design wise. Not sure how it will stack up vs S8.
The Note 7 pretty much has it all. All great sammy tweaks like always on display, button camera lunch - S.Pen, Curved screen, Best quality display, water proof, almost no bezels, usb type C, FAST wireless charging. Type C i never used since i had wireless everywhere, even my cars but now with this LG G3 I sure wish I had it. Feels like Ill break the damn thing off lol.

Ps If I was in your shoes Id keep whatever you have now, struggle with it and wait for S8, N8. Worth the wait.
