Re: How do you like the TP2 after couple months?

Got thsi phone in the beginning of November, i decided it was time to upgrade my phone and my service.. getting my e-mails on my phone> i am starting to understand that HTC is a great cell phone company but Windows has a lot of software issues..

One thing i will tell you is this phone can be hella laggy, need more memory. this phone looks good though, you can't beat the keyboard.. very little apps and the cool accessories don't exist for this phone

Re: How do you like the TP2 after couple months?

I had the TP and after 4 replacements I had a chat with an in store rep and got a free upgrade to the TP2. I spent $585 on the TP back in March and after 4 replacements and pointing out to the rep that I used invisasheild on all 4 I got the TP2 sans upgrade fees. I like the bigger screen and the speaker is alot louder and I love the tilt but I would not recomend paying for the upgrade to get it. The speed is not any faster IMO than the TP, and the lack of the flashlight doesnt help. The TP2 is what the TP should have been to begin with.

Re: How do you like the TP2 after couple months?

I don't like to use the word LOVE lightly, but it's damn close. I do not own a pc and my phone(carrier) before this was cricket. It's like I'm growing and learning more and more about this phone. I don't miss having a pc at all, I will be rolling with TP2 for a while...

Re: How do you like the TP2 after couple months?

Bought from Sprint since Dec 2009, base entirely on specs I see because before I only have used phone with dialing function and know nothing about multifunction advance phones. Figured that good specs will allow me to do a lot. I love it so far, two big reasons are tethering/wifi router through use of custom rom and remote desktop. Dislikes the phone/HTC's dialing interface though, very easy to accidentally dial a number.

I know this thing has its limitation being an open source user myself (hope to run fully functional Android on it one day). Only thing I want more is faster and a higher resolution screen. Although I'm not sure how soon will that happen. I am not planning to upgrade phone until one with higher res than current 800x480. I would expect 960x576 as the next step up, probably not 1024x640 which is netbook territory. Another thing is I will only upgrade to one with a dedicated gpu, but that seems to be the trend now with expensive phones.

PS. I was very careful with the phone and I didn't find out the screen can tilt until 3 weeks into owning it, so an extra bonus.

Re: How do you like the TP2 after couple months?

I personally like my phone a lot. My only complaints would obviously be: want more ram, better processor and maybe more optimized Windows Mobile with extra customizations. Also..I kinda hopped there would be more HD applications out already..I know there is wmfix but I wish windows mobile handled the resolution a lot better then it does on some of the older apps. Also the sprint radio sucks so my phone resets itself randomly until they release the next radio..sigh...

If you think about it the phone was able to do everything I generally wanted to do so its still got my approval.

My guess my next phone will be an Android as WM7 gives me the creeps...that and I think Microsoft is gonna go out of business :/

Re: How do you like the TP2 after couple months?

I love it EXcept for the fact I keep on getting dropped calls for some reason around 4-5 min into the call. And I will be talking with other Companys like boost,verizon. It has gotten under my skin a few times.

I have always had Motorola and palm smartphones,
(BEFORE THEY WERE COOL) and regretibly 1 Blackberry.
I initially wanted the Palm Pro but verizon didn't stock it, and the new palms that verizon have just don't cut it for me.

anybody else have the dropped call problem ?
