Whats the diff? - MDA, XDA, 1010 General

Hi,
I want to buy MDA from my local operator (ERA GSM)
and i got some questions
1) Whats the diff between XDA and MDA? only name?
2) Whats the +ses and -ses of MDA I ?
Thx for fast ansfer.

differences ...
MDA is much bulkier, slightly heavier as compared to XDA ... these things make it more difficult to keep it pocket size
apart from that the seem to be identical
regards

Anyone got a pic of a MDA?
Thanks - Sunny.

here you are
from Germany, so far ... I am able to get only one

Huh??? If you are talking about MDA II, not MDA.
They are both the same unit size wise. It 's just minor cosmetic differences.

although they are the same inside ... the ungly MDA finish
distinguishes it from original HTC design .... they put some additional plastic cover
regards, monika

MDA = XDA = Qtec 1010
(with antenna, w/o Bluetooth)
MDA II = XDA II = Qtec 2020
(w/o antenna, with Bluetooth)
To stop any confusion :roll:

apart from slight difference in extrenal finish - u ar right
of kors that is regarding XDA I, XDA II has not been officially announced in my country so it is difficult to say for the time being

monika

yet another picture - original local MDA (Poland) WM2002

XDA IIs back pack - Extended Battery!

Does anyone know if there will be a back pack type thing for the XDA IIs, like there was for the XDA II. Only this time it should have GPS receiver, and a compact flash slot - and of coarse an EXTENDED battery! Is their one on the agenda?????? And how about an extended battery, when will one be availible?
I took a look at the XDA II backpack, and this thing really makes the XDA II an even better device.
I don't know if a 'backpack' is available for Blue Angel models, but if one was available I buy it in a second; the ability to have both an SDIO and CF slot on the Blue Angel would be amazing!
Does anyone know if the existing XDA II backpack:
http://www.expansys.com/product.asp?code=108741
will fit onto the Blue Angel?
The XDA2 back pack does not fit, and I can't see a socket anything like the XDA2 which makes me think that the XDA 2s will take a backpack in the future. In fact I'm returning my XDA2s and am going to wait for the XDA2i
This is disappointing... I was hoping the backpack would work with the Blue Angel.
Well, I guess I'll just have to hope that HTC makes one for the Blue Angel, but given the problems they're having with this latest model, I have a funny feeling that's not going to happen
What's the difference between the Blue Angel (XDA IIs) and the XDA IIi?
Thanks!

what is the xda2I??? any specs or pics??
2i is like 2s, but has 1.3Mpix camera and 520MHz processor
Nigel
And similar casing to the o2 XDA II which means that upgrading to the o2 XDA IIi would be practical for XDA II owners due to the fact they can use most of their current accessories...
Do we have any idea of a release date yet for the XDA2i?
My XDA2 contract has expired and I'm really itching to get the i version.
It's going to be late Jan, early Feb here in Australia
its on the o2 website the xda 2i
Can we have a link please, I can't seem to find it... Thx!

question for Atom Life owners

can Atom Life owners confirm that the LCD's are free from the horrible squealing noise? I am considering buying one.
I have had four Atoms replaced for the squealing LCD's and still the damn thing squeals its head off, I swore I'd never buy another O2 but the Atom Life is a good looking package, fast, plenty internal storage, WM6, improved audio, however there is no way I am spending $1000 on a squealing whaling faulty handset again especially with the customer support offered by O2! Why on earth would they continue using Quanta with all the troubles they had with the Atom and Atom Exec.
i suggest you buy o2 FLAME..it much better than all..
-=[serialzs]=-
Yeah I've seen the Flame looks a good unit too but its just too big, so can anyone confirm the LCD's are ok?
I'm using an WM6 atom life and have found no squealing isues with it.

Phone Selection Guide
I suggest you surf at www.pdadb.net and do a device to device comparison... from technical specs to looks and sizes... You can even set the specs you want and list out all the options.
O2 is not the sole seller of the good stuff... if you know what I mean.
Good Luck!
O2 Atom Life
Im wondering whats the problem really...because mine is totally awesome. I have no complain on my O2 Life even after I installed HTC Kaiser Home plugin, SPB Mobile Shell/Diary/Back Up, Resco Explorer, etc...what Im saying is that this is the best PPC/PDA I have so far....no complain. Full Stop.
Atom Life - best ever
Totally agree with Observer 365 - best I have owned.
No squealing, no call dropout (have prioritized GSM over 3G to avoid auto switching when 3G gets weak), only slow when i have more than 4 or 5 applications running and one is doing something (to be expected).
The only issue I have is that I have spent close to $3000 on PPCs to get here, and I spend way more time than I have available fiddling with it! Well done O2. A better device every upgrade.
mbb
I am very put off by anything made by Quanta! The Life is just the Atom with an upgraded CPU and bigger rom other than that I hear the Mobo is exactly the same....jigga jiggs is right O2 is definately not the best seller of the 'good stuff' Thank you for your feed back.... btw currently considering HTC Touch 2 (HTC Nike) only if its released with inbuilt GPS or the HTC Vogue if it is released with GSM functionality but I doubt it.
rofl get a nokia n95..
i regretted getting an o2 xda atom exec
this looks good check it out

no chance I'll ever buy any Symbian especially not a mechanical one
i have been using quanta apollo for a few months now and it works flawless....
though i would not say that it is fast but then it aint slow either and the 1GB rom is a plus point with a whooping 624Mhz is another whammy
but if u ask me personally i would prefer my sister's Flame any given day the 128Mb ram does wonders (though u must not mind its huge size!)

i'm with you on that one m8
i myself have jumped the boat too WM and dont regret it a single day...
though symbian is less hassle but then it may be because it has very little productiveness and the hardware config is still so primitive(i mean the processing and RAM)
... but one thing is sure symbian os is an OS to look upto in the near

Pls help in Purchase

Hi folks...
I have been a part of this forum for years now... I started with the Himalaya and moved on until the universal... Last year i gave up my universal and now am lookin forward to comin back to the WM platform. Unfortunately, there are not many options in the US it seems. I was considering buying a Herald (T-Mobile WING). Does anybody wanna guide me by comparing the stability of the ROMS and the hardware quality between a Universal and a HERALD??
Is it worth the money??
Thanks alot.
Regards,
KT
Oh common guys,
Spill it out... Any help would be appreciated... Pls... Thanx...
Regards,
mOrph
well, a ROM is a ROM, is it not? It really depends on the skill of the creator. We only have two main chefs, PDAVIET and Itje, and only Itje regularly releases new roms. We're all waiting for his touchit v2 for the wing, which we all expect to filled to the brim with kaiser converted goodness. He's already released it for the herald. Heralds and Wings have different hardware keyboards and, as i understand it, not much else.
Hardware wise, the Wing is quite a solid phone. There have been battery life issues, but thats an issue with all WM phones. Other that, there have been no serious problems. The processor IS a bit slow, but we all overclock to 247 or 273 mhz, so it doesn't really matter.
Aesthetically, the wing/herald is much sexier than the Universal. It's actually quite thin, and I believe was one of HTC's first phones designed for for both aesthetic appeal and functionality.
thanx mate...
appreciate ur input...
Any Herald on Sale?
Anybody in the US willing to sell their Herald? Pls do let me know..
Understandably I am not looking for a defective\ torn up piece... Its just that if somebody thinkin of upgrading or switching from WM platform and wants to sell his/her Herald.
For a safe and easy transaction we could conduct it through eBay. Thanks

[Q] Mozart or not?

Hello all,
I have grabbed a deal on ebay for a brand new htc 7 mozart for 205 GBP.. the phone is locked to orange uk (i intend to unlock it).. is there any cons I should know about this phone? pls advice me asap!
Thanks!
Biggest cons for me:
Xenon flash obviously doesnt work when shooting video
Slippery as hell (look at my other topic about dropping it. I dropped this phone more than 10 other phones I owned)
Touch buttons for search/home/back suck. I dont know how often I already hit the touch search button and had to think of this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7GM4Lt5k24s
lol!! thx for the comment! so, do you think I should close the deal for that price or it doesn't worth the money? I wouldn't buy it for 400+ GBP that orange sells it, but for the half money I might do!
it is a good phone carmello, especially for that price. i'm using mozart over 2 months and (from hardware perspective) can't really blame it. whether or not wp7 will fit your needs/tastes is a different question...
basically if you feel confident getting a wp7 phone or want to give it a try in any case then mozart is a solid choice.
I am a pretty confident with wp7 because I've tried it before on my bricked focus! my concerns rely on htc's quality.. for me wp7 with nodo serves all my needs as what I seek is some time-wasting games (really liked xbox live), fast internet navigation, gps, office and some usefull apps.. and smoothness first of all! won't be a problem I guess to flash it with nodo as I read from other posts, right?
Cheers guys, appreciate it!
for less than 200 GBP I can find a new optimus 7 as well.. shall I choose that instead of mozart? any advice? pls?!

Even though the Xenon flash means you cant record video with light I would still go for the mozart above all phones for:
Looks, the body is sexy
Cam: 8Mpix instead of 5 and Xenon flash is great for pics (example) http://dl.dropbox.com/u/22045001/mozpic.jpg
Uniqueness -> You will hardly see anyone else with a mozart.
I would really suggest a good casing/cover/pouch though cuz im not kidding when I say its slippery, specially if you have dry hands (which I do)
I've had the Mozart since January, and imo it's an excellent little phone =)
I agree with the others, I have dropped it quite a few times already, but so far not even a scratch so it's pretty resilient!
One bonus of the Mozart is that you can upgrade the memory on it (have already fitted one with a 16gb card, will be putting a 32gb card in mine once hardware warranty has expired!) but can be a bit fiddly...
Only bad point I've found is it has a tendency to freeze, or simply lose sound until I turn off and on again! If it freezes, only option sometimes is to pop the battery out for a minute or two...
But, this seems to be happening less with NoDo, so hopefully with more updates it will become even more stable =D

I'd go with the Mozart. It has gorgeous looks and the camera is quite excellent. The Optimus seems to be a more popular phone but I think it feels awkward in the hand.
I agree that the Mozart is a bit slippery and I have dropped it loads of times and it is still in one piece unlike some of my friends iphones.
The only downside in my opinion is the screen, it has good viewing angles but has some colour banding. Not sure of the screen quality of the Optimus so can't compare them.
already got the mozart in my hands.. its really beautiful and not regretting it at all (not yet at least!), and it only cost me 171 GBP from ebay! I gues this thread might close now! thanks everyone for your help! really appreciate it!
btw, I had unlocked it so I can use an O2 sim card on it and connected it to zune twice so I got instantly the feb and march updates without any chevron unlocks or whatsoever!
You can get the mozart from cex for £195 with a years warranty

I paid £166 BNIB! that's a deal i think! Point is to be satisfied and cert ainly I am with my Mozart!

If you plan to use your phone as a music player, Mozart is arguably your choice over Optimus. And, as weird as it sounds, HTC is better than even Samsung in this area, while LG is subpar. I'm talking about WP7 devices here, obviously, not in general.
im so dumb i had to find out the meaning of subpar, typically state school education

[Q] what droid to buy? its costing me nothing :):)

hi all.
well, after a long time debating with vodafail (my phone company) in reguards to reception issues that i am having, they have decided to give, yes give me another phone.
basically, the story is this.
i started on three, with a N97 (worst mistake i ever made) then, switched to voda under the belief that all me reception dramas would be gone, and that my n97 supports all the network bands voda uses, and i will for a long time. fast forward a few months with constant reception problems and, then voda told me that the n97 doesn't support their networks etc... so they gave me a HTC Desire HD (how very nice). and told me that it supported all their networks, and the new ones they were rolling out.... well, that was a lie. and im still having problems, even after i have rooted it, and upgraded the radios, i call htc to ask if the aus version of the dhd made for vodafone, supports the 8503g network (their current rollout) and they said no. so i rang voda up again, and after much debate, this is where i am...
at another free phone.
so, i need some help with the selection of it. below is a list of manufactures that vodafone stock and sell, and basically i want to know either the best sideways or upgrade move there is from the dhd, out of the list of supported manufactures.
the list is thus:
HTC
Apple (not keen on an iphone at all)
Nokia (not keen on Nokia after that N97 P.O.S)
Samsung
Sony Ericson
BlackBerry (dont realy like the look, but am open to looking)
Alcatel (never heard of them)
i would ike a galaxy s2 but apparently there is some issues with the screen or something (unless thats been rectified)
and the only pre-requisit over the dhd i would like, is a better day-time viewing screen. the dhd is a pain to read outside. but thats not a necessity.
so, there it is. any phone is available to me for free, so whats the best.
Cheers

umm, honestly this is a huge question completely redirected by WHAT phones they actually offer. HTC and Samsung have some BADASS phones right now so if you can get the Sensation Or SGS II id choose one of those.
