[Q] Need your help on this

---

I am planning to buy this Phone - HTC Imagio Unlocked. I will be using this Phone in India with Vodafone GSM. I like the features of this Phone so much that I am tempted to buy it within no time .....

I read a lot of criticism on some features like -


1. Its battery is very bad. If true, how can I tweak the Phone to give me maximum battery life ?

2. Processor is slow. Any tweaks possible ?

3. Does it have FM & a stylus ?


Can you please echo your experiences over here .... Please.

Regarding overclocking

Yes, but does overclocking have long term effects on the Processor ?

Also, how can I prolong my battery life to give me more Talktime during daily usage ?

during overclock is not too excessive, it would not be so influential on the processor !

I have used this phone in India on Vodafone and it works fine. Never had any issue with battery life but I wasn't talking for an excessive amount of time. Setting it to GSM mode only may help. The phone has a stylus but you should rarely need it.

Search for WiMoSpeed for an easy-to-use overclocking software. If you run stock ROM, it should be pretty quick without any overclocking. If you are running a cooked ROM, overclocking does help. You will have to figure out how fast you can overclock your phone by experimenting.

Also working fine on T-Mobile US prepaid

Very nice phone for the price! I missed my old HTC Wizard and I'm very glad to have a great smartphone again. Goodbye toy Nokia 5230!

If you're not using it with a CDMA carrier, turn off CDMA mode. Better battery and no weird error popups about dialing errors or registering the phone on Verizon network.

3G GSM will not work in USA/Canada, wrong band.

T-Mobile prepaid locks down Web 2 Go access on smartphones. This phone seems to confuse their gateway though, and will allow you to purchase (but not actually use) a $1.49 day pass.

Wifi works great. I have a T-Mobile Rocket USB stick with a cradlepoint 'pocket' router. Perfect solution to the lack of data access on T-Mo prepaid, and I can share via wifi with up to 16 devices.

EnergyRom is a very nice upgrade. I'm glad I did this.

I wish there was an Android port for this phone, but I understand there won't be because of obscurity.

Working with iOS devices at my job makes me glad not to be an Apple fanboy. There is no comparison when it comes to freedom to mod, update, find apps, use my phone the way I WANT.
