    Thread [Q] Weird behaviour!

And everything becomes very sluggish before the phone no longer respnds to touch. If I then turn the screen off, it won't turn back on again, and I have to...

    Thread Replacement for HTC Kaiser?

    Apologies for posting this in here. There doesn't seem to be a General WinMob devices area unless i'm a total spaz. I'm looking for a Win Mob device to replace a Kaiser. Preferably faster CPU, but needs to have an accurate stylus, so a resistive touchscreen rather than capacitive. I have a...

    Thread Tip: Padded case for note (+ ext batt?)

    Hi Folks, I just got a Note and am still deciding what case to get for it. In the meantime, i'm using one of my old PSP-1000 slip-in covers. Should work fine with extended battery backs too by the looks of it.

    Thread [Q] New (UMPC) device advice?

    Hi folks, I've had an HTC Desire-Z / Vision for a few months now and i mostly hate it, and the Android apps, so i'm giving it to the wife and going back to my HTC Athena for now.

    Hi folks, I just thought i'd post a success story for a change: I Unlocked, SuperCIDed, and flashed a Tornado ROM using XPMode in Win 7. The main thing to remember to do is to re-attach the device using the USB menu every time the phone changes from using an ActiveSync connection to the...

    Thread Wired Ext USB Headset?

    Hi folks, I'm looking for a comfy headset (or two) for a TyTn II & Athena 100. I love the remote here: http://i.expansys.com/i/b/b150195.jpg ...but hate these type of ear pieces. Is there anything similar with a headset or that will allow a PC (stereo) headset to be used? Cheers!
