How does it compare size wise to the Exec Flib?

Flibster · 28-08-2008, 11:46

Smaller in all dimensions. Not much on the depth - couple of mm in it. But around an inch narrower and shorter.

If only the keyboard tilted like the Tytn II - still, not much of a loss.

Still trying to accendentally drop the phone into my bag or pocket without noticing.

I've been through the USB options on the phone (it can act as just a USB disk if you want) but with no luck.

The strange thing is that it worked yesterday afternoon but not this morning and in that time neither the laptop or phone have been rebooted or even used.

Mine did that too... well the last one did, got delivered a replacement yesterday which I haven't had time to faff about with...so haven't tried AS either.

Got another pair of earphones, case and stylus though

Well....not liking it any more

Whilst the signal strength can be stronger, it seems to be more eratic. One minute it has a signal, the next it's disappeared and whilst it's hunting for one the battery is getting chomped up. Will be going back to .05 tonight. It's less than a 5 minute job so no big deal.

Picked one up this afternoon, easy as that

I AS over the air but I had to fiddle to get it setup on the laptop (time sync and some other things) - I needed to run windows update with the phone connected to fetch a new driver before it would work. Not sure if that helps if you're having trouble with it but thought I'd post

This is on Vista with the Mobile Device Center (ActiveSync's replacement).

Just getting to grips with it now. I just uninstalled that damn Antivirus program and Co-Pilot, doesn't feel too slow at the moment, but like I say, compared to my old phone it was lightening. Missing the YouTube app - need to decide if I want to just flash the thing and get everything I want, or hack and change this around to sort it. Getting rid of the white and pink is easy enough. Not sure if I like the look or not yet.... hmms!

Anyway, new phone wootness. Stuck with my contract and just paid for it, so I'm still on £27.50 for 12 months, which I'm quite happy with.

Des - Did you go back to radio .05?

Desmo · 31-08-2008, 17:05

Aye, seems much more stable to me. Most people on XDA Dev go for .05 too.

Daz · 31-08-2008, 20:51

s'alright now, was having some right fun with firmwares the other night - AS over the air just wasn't working with anything but stock firmware, thought it might be something weird to do with the radio, turns out it was a dodgy t-mobile proxy which I'm now avoiding.

Running the latest HTC official now - so long pink!
