It's from the new HTC Diamond and it looks awsome...

Lot of videos!

hot phone right there...though a bit dismayed at the link as it said that the other htc devices (for instance touch/dual/cruise) won't get the updates as they should. I honestly hope the members at xda developers can think of something on release-my brother just got his polaris and almost lunged it at me when he saw the diamond...

The damn musik app is hot! What a great implementation. Looks better than coverflow imho.

Ohh, If I had a dime for every time I have read this on this site! "No way we can port WM5 to other devices, the hardware just isn't there!", "there is no way WM5 will ever run as fast as 2003 because of hardware limitations" (then page pool was discovered)
"WM6??!? forget it!" (and here we are with WM6.1). Or one of my favorites: "we cannot have the cube simply because the software/hardware won't support biotouch"... *sights*
The only thing that we cannot imitate (so far) is the accelerometer, other than that, the UIs that I have seen over the past 5 months (Freestyl, PointUI, UltimateLaunch, SPB Mobile Shell 2, rlToday, the cube(s), etc) are similar to (or some even better than) Manilla. With this I am not saying that Manilla isn't cool (it actually is amazing), but I am saying that it can and probably will be done by someone somewhere down the line.
So, think poistive!!!

They will once it comes out!

The One Negative
that I see is that the screen could be larger. Maybe a full 3in

Now everyone will be on HTC jock again and flock to buy this phone, quickly forgetting the 3D issues. HOW SAD

true
but this is also why xda developers exist LOL
I think that once it does hit and it has been sufficiently "modified *cough*hack*cough*
I can see the 3d drivers working and being applied to raphael as well. Slick as hell of a phone

hmm, this will be ripped and ported to most devices im sure, and before that im sure ppl here will make lookalikes

need I remind you I like those lookalikes LOL
anyway
you're right...so hopefully we may see this on a titan...*thinks* yeah right we can't even get touchflo to work properly LOL

I don't see why TouchFLO 3D shouldn't run on other HTC Touch devices.
The diamond has 528 MHz but 640x480 pixel.
Older devices often 400 MHz but only 320x240 pixel.
The processing power shouldn't be the limiting factor. Only memory could become an issue.

Improved Touchflo

Looking at the new Touch Viva HTC have annonced the pictures show a slightly different touchflo:
http://www.htc.com/uk/default.aspx
Is the analog clock and advanced weather tab available now? As I can't find it anywhere, or is this something that is going to be launched with this new handset?

its a 2d version of tf3d, for low end phones. there are community members working on a port for our diamonds.

Dude thats one of the sweetest HTC device I've lied my eyes on...
ROM : 512mb
RAM : 288mb
Everything else seems not much different but..
GOSH

Diamond HD is the sweetest thing ever, and there are quite a few changes too.
But fine she is, can't wait

Rumors are this phone id out in December? I'm due upgrade in November

can we stay on topic please!

Yeah, the clock is nice, and I kinda put a new thread out there for it, but I guess will have to wait for the phone to come out so it can be extracted from the ROM, otherwise a imitation created from scratch.

maybe wrong placed here but i didnt want to start a new thread for my quick qeustion.. what is better our diamond vga or the hd wvga??

wvga is 800x480 and vga is "only" 640x480
the only reason Touch HD has that resolution is couse its screen is way longer

Maybe a simple search would do the trick...
But anyways here goes..WVGA is known as Wide Video Graphic Array, and apparently from what I've read is that is has better picture quality then a VGA.
Theres not much info on the net but try searching for WVGA and it will answer ur question dude.
I'v seen a video on youtude of a GPS that uses a WVGA and has a Nexuschip or something.
But it brings images to life, like playing a racing game..Hope this helps ya bro

you dont know what your saying ? do you ?
okey here's how it goes Touch HD has way bigger and mostly longer screen and because it's WVGA resolution that is same resolution as VGA but "longer or wider" so there should be no difference unless it just simply has better screen manufactored for it.

or to put it another way, pixels per inch are the same.

but Touch HD screen is wider than the one in Diamond and there are the same amount of pixels in width (480) soo ppi is different
after calculation im sure that Diamond has higher ppi
Diamond 285.71 PPI
HD 245.51 PPI
happy now

Come on folks!!
Give your voting and opinions please!

I had a touch pro 2 for a short amount of time i would say that it is really not like the universal. too bad the omni never came out

I agree Omni could have been a Univeral replacement but it never made it...

Yeah, too bad
But now hope HTC will do something!
If not I am seriously thinking on move to Tsosh K02....

There is no real device to upgrade. I have tried three devices, XDA Flame - very good, but without keyboard, Touch HD - nice display, but no power (Qualcomm), hard to control (no buttons, no dpad), no qwerty, Xperia X1 - nice, but to small and no power (Qualcomm).
Touch Pro 2 has not jack 3.5, has not flashlight for camera, has not so big display as Uni and has not so big keyboard as Uni . And yes, there is gps.
I think HTC Leo with hw qwerty could be a solution .

Yeah, perhaps the touch pro 3 that is a line with keyboard can be a good succesor (if HTC launches...)
If not tosh k02 looks promising

Please vote!
a friendly bump!

It has to be the nokia N900 for me - I use my uni as a portable Linux box with UMTS/GPRS always on internet access and i've been waiting 4 years for a another phone with good linux support, display res >= 640x480, qwerty keyboard and 3G/HSPA that still fits in my pocket (so no netbooks)

More pics
More pics of Tosh K02
not very good looking keyboard, but I wonder if this is only a prototype?
And L01 with detachable kb

Ya i also thought but then will there be great rom cookers like we got here for HTC... probably not... so best option stick to HTC or lear how to cook yourself
and here is what could be another successor...
looks better than tosh KO2

Yes it looks much better, but what is it?
Brand?, mockup?
It´s not a question of learning to cook ROM´s, it´s the limitations of hardware on our beloved Uni´s
We have great Chefs here and I´m quite happy with their ROM´s

Well it's intel's first shot at the phone market ... finally intel comes into phone market... the specs hasn't been confirmed it says intel atom processor, sd slot along with 2 usb host. 47 buttoned keyboard, with tracker ball... well it's most likely be Rodhium 3 than uni-2...

18 cm * 5cm * 2 cm... mobile phone?

HTC HD2 !
Guys !
I am mesmerised by HTC HD2. I am finding it very difficult to resist. What is your advice ? How long should i wait before i get one ? Any changes expected in firmwares after 1rst release ?
Uni will continue to remain with me.

Leo is great but if no hardware keyboard is not an option for me
I would wait 6 months and sure HTC will launch Touch Pro 3!!
By now I can happily wait with a Touch Pro 2

HTC LEO Images

Reading through a blog, i found this interested pics of the new HTC LEO phone. Worth a look !!
http://www.slashgear.com/htc-leo-caught-in-wild-1456328/

HTC Leo pics. It is real thing with WM6.5
Found this
http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/htc-leo-spotted-in-the-wild-sports-gargantuan-800-x-480-display/
So far I have only 3 concerns
- 3.5" audio - can not see it
- And backing seems kind of ugly
- Also lower buttons are almost on the edge of the device - silicone cases may suffer from this

Welcome LEO..

the 3.5mm seems to be on the bottom of the handset, next to the mini-usb. There is a slightly extruded bit if you look closely.

And my coworkers mock me for the size of my Touch HD...
Thats one HUGE phone.

Now I see it at the bottom. Strange design

can't seem to find stylus slot from the pics above. Capacitive screen?

I believe so !
4.3-inch WVGA (480 x 800) capacitive touchscreen display
Windows Mobile 6.5
Qualcomm 1GHz MSM 8250 Snapdragon processor
Wi-Fi
GPS, A-GPS
Accelerometer
Light & proximity sensors
3.5mm headset jack
Digital Compass
5 megapixel auto-focus camera with dual LED flash
512MB flash memory, 320MB RAM

wow that's a really big phone.
I was thinking about buying it when released but the size is really... big!

well it seems like the size of the htc leo is somewhat similar to tosiba tg01.

My new Phone.
When we see the pics, it's not too big compared with a Touch HD.
But the question is, when can we buy it?

Is it HD2?
its so big...

its ultimate phone of the year for HTC. in 2008, it's HD rolling, in 2009, LEO rocks!

I thought that 6.5 didn't support capacitive screens, that that was something we were going to have to wait for 7 for.

well although HD was the ultimate fone, still we did see the sluggish and the lagged size of the fone, thanks to the newsense ui launched by htc which revived the dieing windows mobile htc hd fone,
all i expect from this fone is to be fast, and with the processsor and enough ram onboard i hope to see LEO outperform its cousin TOUCH HD.
i just wonder how it would be ANDROID + SNAPDRAGON + XPERIA 2 PANELS + SENSE UI = LEO ULTIMATE PHONE 2009

the pics are nice.the phone looks v nice.but like most guys here its a little too big.wonder if it will fit into a pants pocket.i dont like to carry the phone in a pouch around my waist like some old dude

I read that WM 6.5 will supports capacitive screens, no ?

I could well be wrong, I just had it in my head that it didn't, hence my confusion.

looks charming spec sheet wise, though judging by those side-by-side pics with the TouchHD (which is already on the edge size wise) , it will be ridiculously big
other concerns being that it's thinner, yet has a larger display, more ram and a twice as powerful cpu : will that lead to a shorter battery autonomy?
and if the screen is indeed conductive it will be annoying having to zoom in rather then using the stylus when web browsing or using some of the more ppc-oriented windows apps.
we'll see

Nexus 2

Okay, so I've had my Nexus one for a while now, and I was wondering what they could possibly do to the nexus 2 that would make it even better. I'm thinking probably a faster processor, and more ram, but what else comes to mind?

would love to see a FM Trans to like "broadcast" to the radio....Like those transmitters for mp3 players....Would be siiiick to have pandora or something playing over car radio via my phone

Don't they have something that does that already?

better use of the snapdragon processor, but that's software related... I would like it to be more durable such as made from a single block of aluminium. Also a powerful graphics chip.

The HTC Legend is a sexy beast lol. I'd like to get my hands on one if it goes GSM.
Yeah, a more powerful graphics chip would be awesome, I just can't wait til the big developers start moving towards android so we can have some of the awesome games and apps the iPhone has.

HD2.
Android.

I second this. God that thing is amazing. But it won't look right until the Supersonic comes out. THEN a decent Rom will be possible in my eyes.
But with Windows Phone 7 I can imagine the devs are busy porting that to it right now.

Google HTC Scorpion......should be gsm of exactly what your dreaming of

Not that I could care less... but I would really love for the N2 to have a true multi-touch screen to shut that debate down... 1GB of RAM, 4GB internal ROM, 4" screen, XVGA LCD or SuperAMOLED... I don't like AMOLED for outdoor use. 10MP camera, with xenon flash... and of course Android 3.1!

For less than $500 right?

I will be keeping my Nexus for 2 or more years, whatever comes around the corner - i'll just port it over to the Nexus.. since the N1 is like the G1 in terms of development and popularity, I should be ok for a while..
(this is really what I'm just telling myself.. I dont want my precious Nexus to become.. not worth the time of day anymore...)
Why does technology have to advance so fast!! =(

front facing camera for video chat, a high quality speaker-phone, a kickstand with a projected laser keyboard? an hd projector component

hardware keyboard

x
I myself am sick of the having to chase technology.... I'm done for a bit, my n1 will sufficient for a year, I think thats a good time to get a new phone, once every year...
N1 just needs adobe flash and apps to sd and ill be happy as a cucumber....

Video recording capability @ 24 frames per second (constant!) with DECENT audio quality ... like the Milestone. Why have a 480x720 video resolution when the video is laggy and audio is utter crap? Also a flash option on the video recording would also be good - again, just like the Milestone.
Finally, make FM radio work and you have the perfect device.

the 1ghz processor is enough for me. the current amount of ram is enough- maybe a tad bump is cool.
get rid of the amoled display, 4-4.3 inch display. no trackball. sleep/wake from a hardware button like g1/mytouch. being able to shoot hd video.
other than that... having the nexus one has finally made me not eager to look/have the next best cellular device. this n1 almost kicks my netbooks ass
