I've got the 3125 and have no problems with it, but was thinking of switching to an Excalibur. Anybody use both? Can you compare? I have a TyTn so this is for my 'weekend' phone.
Thanks
i'm in a similar situation
I have the 8125 as my main phone and needed something smaller when going out or out and about being active...
i considered the excalibur (the T-Mobile variant) but its really not that small. For me it came down to music controls and no real need for qwerty keyboard when i'm not working.
I ended up choosing the 3125 over the t-mo dash
if you're more of a candybar kinda person, then i would seriously consider the excalibur over the typhoon/tornado vairants though

Is it possible to take a Cingular 8525 and upgrade it into a TyTn chassis? I know the front camera would have to be added to it, is that possible? Is there somewhere that specializes in these kind of jobs?

Sell the 8525 on eBay, and buy the TyTN. WAAAAAY Simpler and CHEAPER TOO.
HI all, im new here
I have a question, i bought MDA today and don't have Stylus. In my country Stylus for this model is rare. Now my question:
is there another model of PDA with same Stylus?
greetz bulcek
hi,
1. what MDA model did you purchase? are you certain it is the blueangel?
2. what country are you from?
these things are essential to the process.
in general i would say that it is unpractical to use another model's stylus as there are no perfectly fitting ones from other HTC models. some are quite similar but would not fit the back compartment exactly. as i lost my stylus too, i can tell. i tried and contacted t-mobile, thinking a high-class business phone like this would be supported over more than just one year, which was a mistake. these stylus seem to be in stock nowhere, where i checked. they offered me, to order one and i would have had to pay 12.95 eur for one +pp. i went and substituted the missing stylus with a universal one in a pen. which was fantastic, but now i use sun_dream's wm6.1pro build 20758 which is fingerfriendly and with the newer versions of SPB fullscreen keyboard you don't need a stylus at all.
anyway, if you still happen to have the desire to get one, i would recommend ebay, where (in germany at least) you can get 3-packs of blueangel styluses for 1.00eur +pp. if that however is not applicable for your country, as soon as you posted it, i can look up online shops that still sell them for your area or ones, that at least ship it to your area.

thx 4 answer, I found it on allegro.pl
but, substitutions can work like original or it will be much worst?
Probably dumb question (sorry!): Is there any exterior difference between the various 'flavors' of S2?
I'm mostly interested in differences that would affect a dock/car dock or a case as I'm about to order some stuff from the UK (mobilefun.co.uk). Now that's for the i9100, and I've got the T-Mobile variant
I'd been assuming that all S2s were the same externally (just different radios, antennas, etc.) - but now I see separate car docks for the At&T model and the T-Mobile model. I'm hoping that that's just some sort of marketing deal Samsung has with those carriers, but I thought I'd better check before making a trans-Atlantic oops.
Thanks!
I ran into the same thing with carrier specific cases. I believe the AT&T version has the speaker on the right instead of the left. Not sure about the T-mobile. Maybe check pictures/360 view on their website. They should have pics of their model not generic Samsung pics.
Good luck.
You should look up the specs of the individual phones. The T-Mobile version is bigger than the ATT and i9100 versions. From what I can tell the i9100 and the ATT versions are the same dimensionally. I'm using that ATT home and car docks with my i9100.
Yes there are some differences, especially between international models and USA versions,
for example, i've noticed a certain american version (forgot which one) has a bigger screen,
also another american version (AT&T) the buttons at the bottom of the phone are different than the international version.
Other than the internal differences ofcourse.
cheers
I found the multiple pages inside samsung's us website for the versions going to the different carriers:
t-mobile version 5.11" x 2.71" x .37" weight 4.77 display 4.52"
at&t version 5.15" x 2.75" x .37" weight 4.66 display 4.50"
sprint version 5.11" x 2.74" x .38" weight 4.60 display 4.52"
The speakers are, indeed, in different places, and the t-mobile version back is quite different, covers the entire back, including the speaker, which is on the left, as you look directly at the back.
I also ended up with a 'near field' equipped battery, so I guess there's gear to drive that as well.
Glad I asked, as I'd have ordered the wrong case from the UK. Pity as I really wanted that flip-cover screen protector, as I hate looking through screen protectors, but not nearly as much of a pity as having the wrong case in hand and trying to figure if it was worth shipping it back to the UK for a refund.
Thanks everyone!
Pleases note, that this is the wrong forum for the T-mobile SGS2, this is the right forum section.
Just a fyi before you try to flash anything and brick your phone.
Thanks! I hadn't gotten that far (still reading up - and clearly was reading up on the wrong stuff).
Hi every body.
i am interested to buy a Titan (new and unlocked) in China the model name is X310e is the 3G (No 4G) i have read about the problems with the call and the HTC say is the antenna problem.
i read this problem is only for the American Version but i dont know if they are talking about the TITAN II.
I am really interested in this smartphone, can someone tell me is this problem with the antenna is in all titans model or only in the American Model.
tank you and have a nice day.
All Titans in general will have the antenna issue due to the phones schematics on how the antenna was designed. Since the whole casing shell acts as the antenna, it uses conducting points, which over time can get loose and weaken the signal. Another fact is that sometimes, even just holding the phone itself can reduce signal because your hand acts as a barrier between the signal and the antenna. I live in an area with plenty of signal, other phones get around 4-5 bars (Nokia Lumia 800, Samsung Omnia W, HTC Trophy), but my Titan gets barely like 0-1, 2 if I'm lucky. This also raises the problem of calls being dropped (and calls being muffled/quiet is another problem of the Titan). I love my Titan, but despite these issues, I can live for another 4 or 5 months until they release the 2nd gen WP8 devices.

Thank you for the information.
It means is a serious antenna issue then, the Titan is almost the half price than two weeks ago.
But this make me think more about if buy or not.
I want to buy the HTC 8S, but i lost my phone (Nokia N9) a few days ago and the 8S is no in China yet, i found the Titan is very good option and has a good price also.

Then it depends if you want to get it. It's a great phone but all these faults isn't making the phone any nicer. It's not also a developers point, unlike its predecessors HD7 and HD2 which are quite popular for making custom Roms. I heard china is getting a Lumia 920 soon on contract for free, I'm not sure on which network tho but that, I can recommend getting.
I want to buy a Windows phone to start to develop WP7 apps and WP8 also, i am begineer in mobile development but i want to start to do it and get some money.
BUt i need to use the phone every day, i dont make too much calls only messages and whatsapp.
the Lumia 920 is a great option, but is too expensive for me and with plans are free but the expensive plan for 2 years, i never use a mobile for more than 1 year, i always brake or sale it (i always be boring usin the same mobile every day)
Hey Guys,
I just had to buy another v60 because I had purchased an AT&T version while using T-Mobile. The phone works until July when Tmo phases outs some legacy bands. So I bought a proper T-Mobile LG V60. I went all out and bought a genuine new one and its great but I noticed it weighs A LOT LESS than my previous AT&T. Its weighs 7.6oz, which matches specs, so I'm not worried, but its my older AT&T I'm wondering about, it weighs 8.2oz! I always thought it was heavy and just attributed it to the 5000mah batt. Can anyone with an AT&T confirm that theirs is also that heavy(8.2oz)??
It's possible that the difference in weight is due to the modem (i. e. CDMA vs. GSM, if that applies). Other than that, I don't know what else could be the cause.

Ok thanks for the input. It's like a brick compared to my new phone. It even stays cooler longer because of the extra mass when charging. I've searched the forums, reddit and Google and can't find any reference to the extra weight. I guess you wouldn't notice unless you had bought two different versions of the phone though.
