The htc tp2 likes/dislikes/issues [sprint]

[xx8josh9xx]

These are just somethings i like and dont like about the phone.....in general i like the phone...i have some things i dont like about it, and i have some issues.....i know things i dont like can be fixed by modifying my phone and such, I have been looking into this off and on for 2 weeks now. I will get to playing around with my phone, some day. feel free to add what you want or comment.....this might help some people looking to buy this phone or not....

Like

• notifications page (shows all at once)
• facebook sync to contacts
• keyboard easy to use, nice lighting, good short cuts
• comparably fast
• easy to set up and use wifi
• the symbols page
• the keyboard has t9 (because I'm a bad speller)
• speaker phone (auto on turn over)
• the 2 microphones to block out background noise (though I havn’t tested)
• lighted keyboard
• nice graphics (though sometimes slow to focus)
• auto focus on camra

don’t

• websites don’t work as expected (everything is still in mobile view)
• press power button when texting
• hard to txt and hold phone when charging
• gps tells u to exit when u hit the exit sign (when its to late)
• no detailed battery page (% and time left)
• also getting a lot of crash errors for programs (not phone crashing)
• some programs require wifi to be off instead of just pausing or switching to that connection
• when viewing a messaging and press the call button it takes u to the call screen instead of calling that person
• when typing and pressing space more than once it creates a .
• no ctrl button for easy coping
• cannot highlight stuff to copy easy
• links in sms don’t always allow u to click
• phone number on the web don’t allow u to call, any 10 digits number should be highlighted and able to be called (was on the vogue/touch)
• fm isn’t installed on factory settings
• the different sms screens (I love the look of the gray one, but the plain one works better, since I live on the border of a time zone….the sent is the time of the phone, and the received is the time of the tower, making them out of order, the plain txt shows them as the order they were received)
• no translator to write free handed
• when adding a contact entrances such as b-day and anniversary aren’t "none" by default

• unsure about. the stylist location, and I wish it was magnetic

issues

• lot of crashing errors
• cabs I dl don’t work
• when talking on the phone and the sensor turns on(turning the screen off) it defaults back to the home page ... when backlight turns back on, when I’m still in a call.... (E.g. when calling a 1-800 # and it says press 1, I have to press my talk button because it’s on the home page, then I press keypad, and then one, I have to repeat this process every time I need to enter a number)
• in notifications, when hitting dismiss all doesn’t always work

was there something you needed help with...what is this post about or are you just listing your like and dislikes. If that's the case sometime its better to just write up a whole review on the topic.

Issue: Quality control
There is a little gap between keyboard and screen when closed towards the top of the phone and there is a lot of play when my screen is tilted.

One thing I do dislike (entirely software) is that with my old TP, if I checked an incoming SMS while the notification tone was going off, it would cut it off. Not so any more. Even if I check/read it, the entire tone plays (had to shorten it, being 30 seconds long was insanely annoying after a while).

thanks...

Besides all the rules you have broken in a single post, would you care to explain what you mean by this?

I guess I and a few others (as is clear by a multitude of other posts) are just sick of some of these mods impeding on the free flow of ideas and expression for which such forums exist.

Would you like a refresher on what happens when you disrespect other members like you just did? I am appalled at the negativity you conveyed in a single post.
