Re: Brutally Honest 1st Impressions - Epic Fail
I agree. I realized less than a week into owning this phone that it fails at it's main function, a phone! I'm totally shocked there are not more people posting in these forums about this. I use my phone for work, like many other people, and I have to assume it's important for most people to have their phone ring! If it fails to ring it at least needs to have a timely voicemail notification! Today I realized not only does it send calls directly to voicemail and withhold voicemail notification, but my text messages are unreliable as well!
I'm torn because the phone is beautiful and functions great in every other way compared to past Windows Mobile phones, how did they drop the ball on such a crucial feature? I'm going to start with a phone call to Sprint tomorrow and I hope either through the network on their side, or perhaps a new Touch Pro I can get it to function correctly as a phone. |

Re: Brutally Honest 1st Impressions - Epic Fail
Not really sure why your so dissatisfied with your touch pro, but hey thats why you have 30 days to take it back. Personally even without tweaking my TP surp***** my expectations out of the box. As for winmo, you new that it was on it when you got it and you should be used to it if you had a mogul. If you want an apple get one, I'll be here enjoying my TP and the countless features that I use daily that the iphone can't do.

Re: Brutally Honest 1st Impressions - Epic Fail
It seems like I'm the only one not having a problem from the looks of this thread. The only tweaks I've done are to disable the SMS sent notification and the tethering fix. My phone rings every time and I get all my text messages quickly. In fact, when my friends send out mass texts to each other, I'm usually the first in the room to receive it. The only complaint I have about the phone is its dismal video playback abilities.

You know, it should just work. The iPhone out of the box can do one thing. It can ring. When you call it. Freaking amazing. Anyway, I love my touch pro. Really I do. I just think it fails totally as a phone. Smart or otherwise. I'm sure once I flash it with a custom rom and finish these regedits it will be perfect. I just turned off the HTC dialer, now it actually rings when I call it. Not like out of the box. Yay me! |

Re: Brutally Honest 1st Impressions - Epic Fail
these are my feelings exactly. we get these phones which aren't cheap and then we have to hack and tweak the hell out of them just to get them to work. what i posted in #3 i'm serious about. if the next pro i get breaks down, i'm done with winmo.
