Hi everyone,
so I'm determined to learn how to use my Jasjar like a one-handed device, even though the form factor does not lend to it.
I know it's not meant to be a one-handed device... but I think it could be with the right software and workflow.
Yes, the Jasjar could use more face buttons, the screen moved up a little bit so your thumb falls right on it, an LCD screen on the flip-side with a numeric pad like the Nokia Communicator, etc... but I think it could still be salvaged, so to speak
One of the things I admire about the Treo is that it can easily be used one-handed, and the main reason for this is that the calendar / mail buttons and directional button allow you to navigate everthing you need... multiple presses of the calendar button switch between day / week / month view... a handy feature.
The side buttons on the Jasjar are not big or accessible enough to be usable in this way. However, I'm thinking that I could remap the directional buttons to calendar, mail, etc... to make it a little more usable one handed.
Just for phone calls, I could get a Jabra BT800 so I don't have to open the phone to see who's calling, but that doesn't solve the problem for the calendar or email.
To my knowledge, there are no other devices on the market that have the Jasjar's power (the Treo 650 is apparently more unstable than Windows Mobile 5, it has no built-in WiFi, the Treo 700w has a 240 x 240 screen, also no built-in WiFi, the Nokia E61 takes Mini-SD cards, and that hurts the max capacity, the K-Jam and PPC 6700 don't have the directional buttons near the middle so they are not as friendly to one-handed use, the Nokia Communicator doesn't have vibrate, etc...) and I can't really find something with the Jasjar's feature set with the Treo's usability.
Anyone had experience with this ? Can you suggest any software / shortcuts / workflows ?
Thanks !
WIsbarAdvance2 and WAD make the desktop awesome for large thumb-click icons which covers off a LOAD of issues.
@ikaris,
sorry mate the Treo 650 is much more stable than the JJ/WM5! Also my Treo is on for three days (24hrs a day) before it needs to be re-charged, unlike my Exec which run out off puff in about 15 hours. M$ got help from Palm to design new UI features of the Treo 700w as the Treo 650 is so easy to use one-handed. The Nokia 9500 is even more stable still, I only needed to reset it about twice in a year!
I was considering the Treo 650, but the lack of Bluetooth 1.2+, Wifi, limited RAM (even though the Jasjar is pretty close in free ram...)
I've heard bad things about the Enfora sled...
but I just love the simple one-handed usability of the Treo.
The 700w is nice, but the 240x240 screen and lack of integrated Wifi is killing me ! What were they thinking ?!
does any one kows any software for auto screen rotation for htc touch dual?
thanks on advance.
Sorry, but for have the auto rotating screen, you must have the accelerometer (sorry, i dont know if in english is exact) wich is an hardware piece.
you need hardware for that , not software
Im guessing you wanted to make it like the iphone

Why iPhone? There's not just the iPhone whit this feature!
By the way, i wonder if its possible to install an accelerometer on a phone who doesn't have it.
yeah... not just iphone that have this feature. also available in HTC Diamond, Touch Pro and Touch HD.
Mobile phones nowadays are coming out with accelerometers built in, which is basically a device built into the phone that “tells” the phone which way it is being held up, down, left, right, moving etc.
Accelerometer is not a piece of software, it's a component inside the phone. So, if u guys need one, change to one of the phone that I mentioned earlier.
I owned diamond and want to get hTC HD or Sony X1.
What is your comment??
SCREEN:which WVGA is better?
Navigation button: lack of navigaton button on HD, is it problematic??
GPS lagging: which is better?
Video with coremediaplayer:which is better?
Thanks!
I bought a Xperia and tested a touch HD of a friend. I've returned the Xperia and bought the touch HD. Now I undesrtand the success of the iphone etc..the screen size is what really maters!. Apart form that, the xperia is still quite buggy, while the touch HD is buillt on a proven platform, all the touch devices made by HTC. Altough the Xperia is made by HTC as well, looks that HTC has let Sony to "drown" in the waters of WM because what really makes HTC phones useable is their own tweaks to WM that make the difference, like: The bluetooth handsfree profile works, the phone does not hang (or not so often) the wifi does not drain all the battery...Sony still has a long way to go until they are able to customize thier WM handsets to make them useable. If only they had Symbian UIQ to live longer...
By the way I tested Tom Tom 6.0 in both and the GPS works more or less the same on both (a bit faster in the HD). You will not miss the navigation buttons at all, in fact I find the optical joystick in the X1 horrible and the hardware 4 way keys are so small that I've never used them. The only strong point about the X1 is the hardware QWERTY keyboard but for moderate typing (emails, IM), the onscreen keyboard of the HD is sufficent because the buttons are big enough in the 3.8 inch screen.

Is it easy to use a phone without natvigation button?
Can you play games??
Well..i use the phone mostly to work and speak...For that I have my Nintendo Ds..
i had the xperia and gave it back within a week. so many issues like system crashes, active sync not working on vista, slide mechanism flimsy...list goes on and on. i ordered my hd this morning
The experia has a small(ish) screen, I cannot see it very clearly. Also imho the slide isnt a great achievement, there is a certain amount of 'wobble' in the mechanism.
The touchscreen is good but not better than the HD.
But you need to ask yourself what you want to do with it.
I've just ordered the HD
Hello
A Friend from me have the X1, and I have the Touch HD.
And Im happy I have not the X1
Got my TD2 yesterday, still have my TD1 (until I sell it) here sre some comparisons:-
1) Unboxing
TD2 is in a much cheaper pack than TD1 simple outer box with simple inner "egg carton" tray, gone are the shiny cherger and usb cables to be replaced with functional but plain matte black ones.
2) Build quality
I would say about the same although the TD2 feels more solid in the hand to me
3) Radio
TD1 with latest official WWE ROM versus TD2 with ROM 1.39.405.2 (47382) WWE Radio 3.43.25.19 as I look at both devices in front of me both are showing 2 bars.
4) Interface responsiveness
Finger control is smoother and more responsive on TD2, interface feels faster. No lag any more when exiting Opera.
5) New Tabs
Stock Tab is nice deeper integration of TF3D (e.g. in calendar) is cool
6) Internet
Push web is a useful feature and it is easy to control how often pages update
7) People Centric communication
VERY useful (to me at least) only had the thing 24 hours and already used this feature several times!!!
8) Music performance
Have listened to about 1 hour of music with NO SKIPS, supplied headphones are adequate, device speaker is loud and clear
9) Video
The film "V" plays without skipping or stuttering at 927 kbps and 25 fps (which is how I encoded it). Don't know whether that is regarded as good or bad but it impressed me!!
10) Battery life
Not enough time to give a defintive opinion but seems good so far
In summary the TD2 is an evolution rather than a revolution, but if your TD1 is getting a little battered and tired and you have some spare cash, I would recommend the upgrade!
I think it’s just straight common sense especially if you are a Touch Diamon1 user you buy the phone because of the size and its fully packed with great hard/software, and if there’s a new model almost the same but a little bigger but much faster and nicer it’s just common sense that you are going to upgrade to a Diamond2.
But I have to say the Pro2 really did get my attention. But still the Diamond2 won! Cant wait till tomorrow.

All true. I would've prefered the Topaz, but oh well. HD here I come. 1 reason and 1 reason only. 3.5mm jack

Does the HD 's 3.5mm jack works as MIC as well?
I just use the diamond with a 3.5 adapter with MIC, handy when there's incoming calls.
About the TD2 , is the stylus got magnatic ends like the TD1 / T PRO / HD? and pull out stylus turn on the screen?
Does TD2 use MSM7201A? and no 5-minutes lag with speakers or wire headset when using music softwares other than TouchFLO3d / WMP (eg: core player / TCPMP / pocket mucic / pocket player)
Can it be use in landscape mode for 3rd party software without regedit?
The TD1 cannot rotate screen other than opera/album, and HTC support will yell at you complain about touchflo3d / phone pad / incoming calls not working in landscape mode.
Can it play RMVB files like the SAMSUNG OMNIA?
When you press CALL button , the phone pad will pop up with last few call history, in the TD1, there are some left and right arrows on the right side of the number for you to choose between mobile / text / work / home / email , it ONLY works with the D-pad in the TD1 . How to toggle between mobile / text / work / home / email in TD2 ?
Does the zoom bar work in most software?
How about the BACK buttons? is it as useless as the one on TD1?
Many thanks
To answer some of your questions about the TD2
The stylus is not magnetic, but pulling it out still turns on the screen like the TD1
The device information on my TD2 shows a 7200A fitted - I use core player, I get no lag
Landscape mode is available for Opera, Album, Email and You tube out of the box
No Idea on RMVB files
Pressing the call button still brings up a call history, there is an icon next to each which calls up the contact card for the person, you select home/ mobile/ email etc. from there, the whole process is slick and fast, no lag.
The zoom bar works in camera (video and still image), album, opera, excel and word - maybe others, haven't checked everything!
The back button does what it says on the box...
Hope this helps
how about the RAM usage? on startup and after opening and closing application?
After a soft reset - RAM usage is 37%, if I then open OPERA, navigate to bbc.co.uk and then close opera (completely), RAM usage is 52%. I don't think mine has got beyond 60% at any time so far.

I don't get why people want their PPC to have free RAM not being used all the time. The unit should be bouncing off 95% used as much as it can.

Does word/excel work in landscape mode? Email works in landscape, does it mean SMS/MMS works in landscape too?
When using EMAIL in landscape mode, what happen when there's an incoming call?
Word and Excell do not switch to Landscape, SMS/MMS do not switch to landscape. When on email in landscape, an incoming call results in caller ID being displayed in portrait mode.
One important note, the annoying delay before the phone rings on an incoming call that was present on the TD1 appears to have been eliminated on the TD2

SMS does go into landscape! i tought it also but if you tilt the phone to your left it goes into landscape
This phone rocks! that i even tought about have a full keyboard
I actually liked the TD1. I also have a Nokia 5800 & the wife has a LG Renoir, I tried so hard to like the Nokia but S60 is total ****e.
Anyway only a few things annoyed me about the TD1 most significant being low speaker volume & low memory warnings. After reading the posts here and on a few other sites it seems the TD2 has addressed most of the failings of the TD1 so thats reason enough for me make the upgrade.
i was also a big fan of the original diamond and upgradef mainlu for the official route to wm6.5. i am glad i did, this phone rocks!

And: TD 2 better camera (5 MP), larger screen 3,2" WVGA 480x800, much more memory, micro SD-card, stronger battery.
But also: no select/scroll wheel, remove the backcover to softreset and to get the sd-card in and out, a little bit thicker...
My new baby...
TD2 actually has removable memory. That's a huge plus IMO.

Great to see you here pietrucci!!! Got mine yesterday as well. The out of the box speed of this thing is quite impressive... look forward to some of your benchmarks when we get cooking! This is going to be fast...
FM radio?
Was wondering if anybody has tried to use the FM radio? Does it exist in the D2? Thanks in advance.

when i compared D1 with D2, i saw that the D1 has a proximity sensor for auto turn-off (when putting it to the ear during a call), and it seems not to be mentioned for the D2.
is it true that the D2 does not have the proximity sensor? so when you call, while putting the phone to your ear/face, you can accidentally press "buttons"?
this would really suck imo... :/
I have been trying to find a Leo to test the touch sensitivity. I currently own the touch HD (for a year now), and although I love it, I must say that the iphone is clearly a lot more responsive to the touch than my hd.
The iphone responds right away to the slightest touch and the movement is so fluid.
How fluid is - for example - cover flow flicking through albums in the Leo landscape player?
If we say the iphone touch-response is a 10 on a scale from 1 to 10, how would you rate the Leo just in that respect?
OK, having had the HD, iPhone 3GS and the Leo I can offer a real perspective on this.
I have the iPhone 3GS sitting right here in front of me and my new Leo. I can tell you straight up, I don't see any difference in sensitivity between the two. They both swipe the same, moving finger across keys. I find no difference in how either screen responds to my finger movements.
It has taken me a few hours of playing around with device (HD2) and having to use the keyboard (when it was required, didn't just use the keyboard) to get used to its different size of keys. What I found is that the end of my fingers aren't 100% equal and that sometimes when I thought I was touching one key my finger actually touched another (edge) as one part of my figertip was further forward (does that make sense) than the part I though I was touching with (the middle). I had this same problem moving from my HD to the iPhone 3GS.
There is one difference that I have noticed...
The iPhone keyboard allows you to press a second/third (probably more than this, but hard to do on such a small keyboard) key while you have another key pressed (multi touch). When you press the second/third key it treats the previous key press as if it has been released. The HTC keyboard won't allow you to press a second/third key while having another pressed.
Both (HD2 and iPhone) keyboards register a key press (send character) when you release the key, not when you first push on it (my simple explanation). This obviously means that when using multiple fingers (thumbs) your experience may be slightly different on the iPhone vs. HD2.
This isn't the phones fault, but the keyboard programs I suspect. Being that the HD2 can multi touch this is just another app that doesn't support it. I haven't tried (on HD2) any of the other keyboards yet so I can't comment on how they work, I don't think any of the WM keyboards support multi touch yet.
Maybe Rozental (FingerKeyboard) can add some light to this. I suspect if FingerKeyboard doesn't already support multi touch it will be made too, once a way to do so is available.
I love my HD2 and how it responds. My iPhone is going up on eBay later today.
Way to bias the question from the start, enforcing top possible marks for the iPhone.
Also, try reading the forum. Do you really think that this hasn't already been discussed? Multiple times?
The touch response is amazing. End of.
Texting can be daunting sometimes, screen is way too sensitive. Never used an iphone.

What phone did you use previously?
as mentioned already the sensitivity of the hd2 and the iPhone is the same. I have both and they both seem to react in the same way. for those used to resistive screen, it might seem overly sensitive. but once you get used to it, you'll wonder how you could ever manage without capacitive again. if you go back to resistive screen you might just think the unit is defective!

This.
Capacitive was always going to be weird to get used to for people who had never used an iPhone. Imagine how iPhone users felt the first time they used their phones.
Now you never hear people complaining that it is too sensitive. It will take some getting to, but damn, it's worth it!

I couldn't agree more. Now I'm used to my HD2, I can quite literally type as fast as I do on a real keyboard......it's awesome. I went back to my omnia for a couple of mins for comparison....and oh my oh my, woefully inadequate.
Viva la winmo capacitive screen
i have owned both and the HD2 is more sensitive. Maybe even too sensitive

I owned the SEX1, but there's no way i'm going back.
HD2 is as sensitive as the 3GS. Though I am more accurate on the 3GS than I am on the HD2 (better key placement, size of device and proportionately wider keys helps on this one).
I think once we get used to the screen it will all calm down. Most of us are just used to resistive screens.

WOW - thank you for the detailed info. Yes, I understood everything you wrote.
Thanks to everyone who contributed to answering my question. Like I said, I have not been able to get my hands on the Leo here in Germany, so until now, I have only been able to compare the HD with the iPhone and, well the difference is obvious (and to be expected). I have been considering selling my HD and getting the HD2. And if its capacitive screen shows no difference to that of the iPhone, then I know I'll love it.
I'vehad a bunch of resisteve winMo phoens, and then all 3 iphones..
the iPhoneswere all the same
and if they are a 10 - the HD2 is a 12
i found it too be too sensitive trying to use the keyboard
but i used the cab file from this forum which changes the sensitivity which helped a lot

Great to hear the HD2 is a 12 (if the iphone is a 10). I would prefer "too sensitive" over "not sensitive enough". I'm seriously considering getting rid of my HD and getting a Leo. I'm just checking on prices and maybe I'll wait a bit for the price to drop (maybe after the holidays).

Im not convinced they will ever support that iphone style keyboard. As far as I can tell it seems the "multitouch" support on the hd2 is all handled in the driver. I have yet to see any app support more than pinch-to-zoom, and I think in those cases the app is not aware of the touches - I think the driver just sends a zoom in or zoom out command.
On topic: I went back to my touch pro and I thought the device was being unresponsive requiring multiple presses. It took me a while to figure out I wasnt pressing hard enough. I guess the hd2 has been spoiling me and I hadnt realised it!

Bingo. The OS does not support more than one cursor position, so the only way HTC can shoehorn such things into the device is with driver trickery sending zoom commands to supplied apps that support it, and however they've done the virtual screen "digital zoom" in other apps. Until WM7 this is as good as it gets.

Touch sensitiivity on the HD2 is fine.
