I think I'm done. Getting a Blackberry
I had an HTC PPC-6700 and it was alright. I finally decided to get the HTC Touch Pro and it has been a nightmare. First it was just SLOW. So I changed out to a clean rom off here and then everything was better. Then one day it just rebooted itself and HUNG. I took it in to Sprint and they replaced it with a Refurb I guess.
The keyboard works when it decides it wants to (the entire purpose for having this phone) and the internet stopped working. Took it in to the Sprint store yesterday and of course the keyboard was working and now its not. They got the internet working again. Now today it is SO SLOW I cant even get it to SYNC before I hard reset it. So I lose a bunch of stuff I added to it. I am just fed up. I wanted to believe in HTC but I just cant. I think its time for a Blackberry. |

well to save your items, there are several backup programs that will even save your programs you installed along with your contacts as well as text/pic messages. maybe you should look into one of them before you do a hard reset.

Try SPB Backup 2.0. I just introduced a friend to the trial and he loves it. He is just learning how to tweak his Pro. |

Sort of missing the point. I shouldn't HAVE to be using safe guards to allow the phone to mess up. I wouldn't be looking at the Storm, I am looking at the Nextel Pearl or whatever it is called.

Re: I think I'm done. Getting a Blackberry
I just did a hard reset and the keyboard is not working again. Unbelievable.

safe guards as just that. its not meant to solve your problems but when you have a problem you dont lose everything you had on the phone. why havent you tried a custom rom? usually the stock roms are the most stable but some do have issues. unlock and try a custom rom for a bit and see if you have any more issues. if you do all you have to do is flash back to a stock rom and relock and again, that backup program works on custom roms so even when you flash you still have all that stuff saved and ready to go.

BTW, during high volume periods, their overflow calls roll over to regular customer service. So it might just be best to ask if you've reached "Advanced Tech Support" before giving your entire spill. That way they can transfer you directly to the queue. Hey, I know I hate repeating a story over and over again to wrong agents... Also, I'd like to piggyback on what Mylt1 stated about backup programs. Man, you absolutely can use PIMBackup (available FREE here --> http://www.dotfred.net/default.htm) to backup everything on your phone to your storage card. The only problem I've had was with SMS messages, and I figured out to simply disable threaded messages (and soft-reset) before backing up or restoring, then enabling it again (and soft-resetting) once finished. Beyond that, it's a GREAT option... highly recommended. |

well look, sometimes things dont work as theyre supposed to, and you are having an issue that i have never even heard of (non working keyboard, then working, then not). from experience, if you install a crapload of junk on ur phone it will slow down tremendously. the touch pro is more of a personal computer than a phone and if you want a phone that works the way its supposed to straight out the box... go for a simple phone.
as for BB, u will never be able to custimize ur phone as much as with the TP. but good luck with ur finding a new phone. |
