Re: Is there a official 6.5 update for touch pro 2 for sprint

There will be a Windows 20 mobile before we see an official update from Sprint. Why run a stock rom when there are many custom roms to choose from?

So yeah, maybe in 3 months?

The following is the last official/semi-official statement I have heard.

The guy who made the first post on the link above is right on so many levels. This makes absolutely no sense! And what is really funny is how the hacking community fixes things months before sprint decides to even talk about it.

Re: Is there a official 6.5 update for touch pro 2 for sprint

I look @ the delay as how will it help the general users vs. the "hacking" community.
As with most Windows OS, you can always improve on it.
But most general users (esp. Sprints') - either feel the phone has good or adequate performance or they move on because of poor performance.

So unless, the performance is in the magnitude of the iPhone bandwidth hogging & rattle the cages, SPCS does things on their own time & choosing.
Ppl here are not even on the radar.

As evidence by their attitude, just as long as some new subscriber conversion ratio is met by SPCS, they aren't going to address this. Subs are replaceable.

& they probably rather push you towards buying the next latest & greatest than support something that is going out of style like our TP2's.


ps- as a personal truth in disclosure - I am all for an update but I am relatively happy with a add ons tweaked - stock 6.1 OS & have no issues using the stylus & kb.
So while I am intrigued by some "visual" UI pics from the other 6.5+ ROMS, it's not enough without actual touch & feel to see the performance gains. Does this make me a general user?

I agree, but what sprint doesnt uderstand is that MOST business users aren't using this phone! They're using the black berry by sprint. More of the hardcore ppc users have the tp2. Its not rocket science! dont they have a committee that researches this... marketing maybe? just taking a shot in the dark...

Yeah & that's why the BB Tour got their recent update on SPCS - business users get the priority.
Us hobbyist are usually last in line.
I mean on 1 hand you can say the TP2 cost more than any other phone in the SPCS inventory but are the corporate/biz IT area budget going to spend for TP2 or a BB?

Like I pontificated, most general users don't really care or don't know enough to care about what the TP2 does...thus the case for iPhones & WM7.
I put myself in the latter cat - I don't know enough about 6.5+ to get frustrated.

They don't give prizes for most updates by carriers & I certainly didn't sign up with SPCS for their updates! LOL!

Man... sounds like everybody is just about as mad as I am about Sprint's lack of support. I've created a Facebook group where we can all get together to demand that Sprint fulfill their promises. Feel free to join here:

When in anger, create a Facebook group to solve your problems because Sprint is really going to care about a social networking site's group lol.

i think it was more a social commentary. i didnt see them as putting you down. just noting somthing humorous in our situation.
i did see you calling them a moron.
name calling is worse. and petty.
