Moving from Mogul to TP

Just wanted to touch the forum for final advice. I have been using the Mogul for a while and with all of your help have it working great. It is getting beat up and the talk button doesn't work--so it's time to look at making a change. My local Sprint store still has a new mogul in stock but also has HTC Touch Pro as well.

Is the TP all that and do you think it is worth upgrading to or should I stay with the Mogul. I've read that there are problems with it --heat and battery etc.

Re: Moving from Mogul to TP

Best upgrade yet, the free ram alone is worth it. One thing I have noticed when upgrading to the TP is if you are transferring over any pictures from older sources to the TP the album program can get hung up on the album.cache file in every folder that had pictures in it. 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.

I upgraded from a Mogul and by the end of the first day with the TP I never looked back....The only negative I have going on is the battery life which I'll resolve with a second battery shortly, other than that the TP is a blast to tweak

Re: Moving from Mogul to TP

You won't even remember the name Mogul after the TP... I personally havent had bad batterylife due to using Juggalo's TP ROM... plus, i don't leave many programs running in task manager... i feel as long as you have a good rom, and don't leave tons of programs running on the RAM, you shouldn't have much a problem with the battery...

Definitely TRAIN your battery tho... let it die completely, charge it to the max, take the battery out, put it back in, charge it for another 30 mins or so, then let it drain completely again. Do this a few times and your battery will reach a MAX Capacity and you will be glad you did it!

From what I was told, battery training doesn't apply to li-ion batteries, only to ni-cads

Re: Moving from Mogul to TP

I misses the Mogul "OK" button and thumwheel. Definately read the posts about the "go back" and home keys needing pressed in their top corners for their native functions or the left/ right "D pad" function they also are used for will drive you crazy. I ahd installed AE Button plus for an OK and "Today" buttons as I could not get predictable function from the Home and go back buttons until I found a post about those button pressing issues and the left/ right cursor function they also serve. I now dont need it. I like the # hey on the keyboard without having to hit "FN" fisrt to use. I did not like the work correction and went wit the tweek to take it back to the MOGUL style. It is a large leap. I have no idea how someone who has never had a PDA phone before gets to liking this one if they come from a RAZR or something. It takes some past expertise in Windows Mobile I think to grasp all of this phone. Also, battery s^cks as you by now know. I love it though. Have spent likely 10-15 hrs on this forum and XDA gathering the info to get it/ use it to where I do.
