changed mogul for tilt

[papped]

If you were an early adopter of the Mogul, you could easily encounter a large majority of phone functionality issues even as a basic "modify nothing" user, all the way up until about 2.17 rom?

All phones have their problems. But the Mogul launch ROM until 2.16 (in which case some people had it worse with 2.16 ROM than any of the previous ones) had more issues than any of the other phones I've owned. Just simple stuff like the phone not waking up for calls or alarms, the sound not working until a soft reset randomly and having to soft reset 5+ times a day due to lockups when using IM programs/Email drove me crazy. I went through 2 different Mogul's and both had identical problems (which most of those issues were re-confirmed by a large number of people on this board anyways).

I didn't wait it out long enough dealing with that for 6+ months on a phone that cost $500? Please...

I dunno, 2.09 wasn't THAT bad. I've certainly had worse (ie the Wing and HTC/T-mobile have done NOTHING to resolve the issues). Early adopters always get screwed. If you can't deal with some issues, it might be better to wait it out.

I waited for roughly 1/4 of my entire Sprint contract. I choose to switch to a different phone. Considering how many posts there are on this exact same decision on the thread for this phone, I would say it constitutes a problem. These are people that will and do mod in any respect to make a phone work properly, not your standard user.

But I suppose its easy to just assume it's the customers being impatient... Long term affects, I tell everyone not to get a Mogul. I list the reasons why. Then in turn they tell everyone they encounter not to get a Mogul. So on and so forth.

If you told me the 755p is perfect I might want to call you a liar I'm glad you found a phone that keeps you happy. I'm starting to think these phones are the devils puzzle. Once you solve one thing, you find something else. I quit looking so hard and don't sweat the small stuff. I love the mogul for its form factor, great voice quality (non BT of course), and I actually really like the WM6 platform (palm user since the Pilot 1000 days).

Yeah I would never call any phone perfect. Every phone has its problems. The Mogul I couldn't get to work the way I want at all, the 755p I can.
