Re: Moving from Mogul to TP

Battery life is nothing close to Mogul. Miss the scroll wheel, don’t like where the TP power button is. Best phone ever, worst battery ever.

I did a search for every one and deleted them all, then let the TP album program create its own new ones, has been working lag free ever since.

That just answered some questions for me.... Thanks!

Re: Moving from Mogul to TP

I still miss some features of the Titan/Mogul.

I used the scroll wheel constantly & I really miss all the hardware keys (I loved having a dedicated internet & messaging button)

I use AEbutton + in the TP & that helps some, but there simple aren't enough buttons there (& the home & back button don't take well to re-mapping)

That being said, the almost unlimited free memory (as long as you don't buy the verizon version) would be awfully hard to give up & the screen resolution looks really nice (although I really wish it where a little bigger).

There still is not perfect PC IMHO. I want a Windows PPC with a high res screen the size of the ipod screen..........

Re: Moving from Mogul to TP

I liked it so much I bought a second at Best buy for backup. I figured the extra battery, cables etc. was worth $75 so the backup phone for $125 was worth it.

I guess that says how long I plan to use the Touch Pro

Re: Moving from Mogul to TP

I jumped in on the Best Buy Touch Pro upgrade deals and frankly I never looked back. I loved the Mogul, but the RAM management got to me. Having a device that actually comes with device drivers for video and lots of extra ram is a definite plus. The camera with autofocus is another positive thing for me with regards to this phone.

Battery life does suck, but I use WMWifiRouter religiously so that pretty much kills the phone for me. I do plan on ordering an extra battery though since I'll have this phone for quite a while.

Are you sure you're using a TouchPro?? The video performance of this phone has been disappointing to say the least, & the atrocious auto-focus lag of the POS camera makes it virtually useless unless your photographing an inantimate object (there are two year old 1.3 megapixel camera phones that outperform the camera).........

Don't get me wrong, I really like my TP but I'm not going to praise it for obvious faults either.

There is also some sort of formatting issue between the way the mogul took pictures and the way the Touch Pro handles them, it causes the picture viewer in TF3D to lock up and reboot when you scroll through them.

Yup, that can be easily fixed by resizing the pictures with an external program like Photoshop. If that doesn't work, removing all EXIF data should help.

Re: Moving from Mogul to TP

I was looking forward to the TP as soon as it was announced. I recommend switching as soon as you can.

There are some things I miss from my time with the Titan but not enough to pass the TP up. I'm really just looking forward to the tweaking, updating, flashing, etc. that made having the Titan such a blast.

Re: Moving from Mogul to TP

So I can get anywhere from 3.5 to 4.5 hours of phone conversation on my mogul right now (using the DCD 3.2.6 rom).

What are you guys seeing for talk time on your TP's?
