Re: Any Regrets?

I have had mixed feelings about the TP2. I came from a Diamond, which did have many faults, but the TP2 has faults of its own the Diamond didnt have.

The screen: its bigger on the TP2 but it feels 'mushy' and has alot of give in the center.. unfortunately really. As far as hardware goes, thats the only complaint. The keyboard is wonderful, the tilt screen is very nice, the build feels solid otherwise.

I get slowdowns, lockups, im constantly needing to reset the phone daily because of quirky problems like notifications not disappearing, or the phone not making calls. I have problems answering calls, the slide to answer on the screen is broken and never worked (unlike the Diamond which worked flawlessly in this regard) so i never use it. It doesnt answer calls it just goes to voicemail if i try to use it. Volume is WAY too low. The MSM7600 is a piece of crap, its sluggish at best, and locks up at worst. The browser doesnt show up in the task manager for some irritating reason. There are HORRIBLE memory leaks: last night I had nothing running and 90% used (25mb free) memory.. UNHEARD of on my Diamond.

Im hoping a cooked Rom will fix 90% of my issues and I will be happy again. I dont regret it because the Diamond overheated with MILD use, and the battery life was awful, as well as no keyboard with a tiny screen.

Re: Any Regrets?

Pretty sweet phone. For the most part I am happy with it. My only downfall is crappy coverage in my apartment, but it's not the phones fault.

Re: Any Regrets?

No regrets here either... I love this community. There is all kinds of support. There are always knowledgeable people to help out if you run into any issues. There are also many older threads where you can learn from other people's issues.
The phone rocks. Drawbacks? yeah... no flash same processor and memory as tp1. Otherwise, nice... Get the phone you want. Or you will find yourself ALWAYS waiting for what's around the corner. There is always somethin better around the corner.

Re: Any Regrets?

i absolutely LOVE my TP2, but the politics around the unlocker is getting annoying (no disrespect to cmonex or olipro). makes me wish i got a Hero so i could customize it the way i like it.

its unfortunate that the actions of some people have ruined it for the rest of us.

Re: Any Regrets?

Thanks for the input guys. Mines out for delivery today and I'm hoping I too won't have any regrets. I will most likely miss the smaller size of the TP1 and the flashlight which I use a lot.

Re: Any Regrets?

I regret having bought the touch pro. This phone really opened my eyes as to what a good pda is.

Re: Any Regrets?

no major regrets. its a huge upgrade over my titan and i like the tp2 a lot. the only real issue for me is that the battery is nothing special. i can get through the day without topping it off, but just barely. i got my wife the hero and i really like that phone as well. i think i like the tp2 a little more due to the keyboard, but i am not sure if i like it $170 more.
