Orange UK Tytn II

[bigchemist]

Hello All,
I just got my Tytn II from Orange today.. besides being charged by the monkeys at Orange £89.99 regardless the upgrade I chose, the phone is sweet.

However, I realised that almost all cool stuff have been taken off, like the HTC Home, MSN messenger and live search, Tomtom, and some other bits n peices...

I found that doing a soft-reset after finishing the screen alignment and cut paste excesrise doesnt prevent the device from automatically installing more customisations...

Hard-Reset did work according to instruction on the main Tytn II page.

All other screens, like when ur doing a call, icons etc are Orange coloured and monotoned in many cases..

i got the orange version :(

i found the htc home screen on this site which i have installed and it works. the orange colour is just a theme, but i havnt had any luck getting any other themes to work on my phone????

I managed to install the htc home software..the one that places the nice sort of time displa and with the tabs for short cut to progs etc.
never considered trying other stuff..but have to admit..im not sure if its effecting the performance..but after installing the htc home plugin..the phone has gone slow as a slug! screen flip,response to command buttons like activeting email or internet..just takes much longer than the tytn...

first time post on the forum...

the htc home screen on the Orange Tytn ii seems to kill the camera performance in low light... making screen updates less than one a second and videos look like a slow set of blurry stills...

am I missing something?...

Cheers...
