few questions for Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2

---

Hi all,

I'm so excited that I just got my Sprint HTC Touch Pro 2. You guys are the best and are very helpful. Thanks

First Question, Can I use this phone with Tmobile or AT&T in the USA?

Second Question, my phone sees my storage card for a little bit then disappear, I have to either reboot the phone or take out memor card and put it back in. Is there a fix to this?

Third, Is there any lag in the GPS? I know that with the Touch Pro 1 the only good GPS application is either IGO 8 or TOM TOM 8. Let me know. Thanks again

you cant use the sprint touch pro2 on att or tmobile. the sim card works only on european phone operators. there may or may not be a hack for this in the future.

the gps works fine for me. after using quickgps the gps detects the satellites quickly. it works fine and is pretty acuurate too i think.

my storage card works fine. dont know what is with yours.

for gps i have google maps, bing maps (live search), and sprint navigation

Which GPS program are you using. TomTom 7 is lagging according to others and I can't get 6 to work at all.

That is partially incorrect: U.S. GSM providers are blocked, but any sim will work outside the US market (not just europe) and it doesn't need to be unlocked for this. As it appears that the GSM block is in firmware, it is likely that it will be defeated eventually. We have a Sprint TP2 user in China right now that confirmed all of this.

As for GPS, I've been using Google Maps and Route 66 without issue, but there is also a tutorial on how to get Igo 8 working on the TP2: igo 8 on TP2

Additionally, the TouchPro 2 cleanup makes a number of improvements for the TP2 all in one cab: TP2 clean up

Hi,
I had the same problem with My Sandisk 16GB MicroSD. I resolved these issue formatting th microSD card with the default parameters and the "normal-slow" option, in my PC w/Vista Business.
