The Wing

I just bought the TMO Wing and i was just curious where does it fall under compared to all the other HTC phones? I thought the wing was a high-end phone until i saw all the other phones HTC makes(Trinity, Atom, Charmer, etc.) So I just wanted to know whether my phone is at the bottom of the list or is it up there? Thanks in advance!!!

T-Mobile Wing is not HTC Wing. HTC Wing is a smartphone and TMO Wing is a Pocket PC. T-Mobile Wing is pretty good although there are some new PPCs that are better.

Wait what? I don't get it how do i know which phone i got? I got this phone...

It's a TMO wing but it says HTC on the back so how would I know?

You have the T-Mobile HTC Wing yes. Wings is a nickname for some other HTC Smartphone. Yours is a Pocket PC phone.
Both are made by HTC.
There is no thread for the HTC Wing. They use Herald for the Wing.
Confused Yet?

Ok I think I get it.....so I'm guessing this wouldn't be the right forum to post any questions about my phone?

yeah. Find a The Herald forum and you'll be in the right place. It would be nice if the Moderators made and HTC Wing Forum.

To Answer your original question -- yes the Wing is High End -- however there are better phones. The Kaiser is better but not whole lot. For the price -- you get what you pay for.

Oh ok thanks a lot, you've been really helpful.

t-mobile wing is in the herald thread
the t-mobile wing is grouped with the herald threads you can find what you need here just search for herald you will find roms for the wing and answers to your questions just read and read some more

Yeah you're right it is the Herald forum, sorry for the miss info. See, I don't even know.

is this the forum for At&T Tilt (AT&T 8925)?

Hi all,
Sorry for the noob question. I just got my AT&T Tilt and I just want to make sure that I am in the right forum. Is this the forum for AT&T Tilt (AT&T 8925)? I've search around, it's either this forum or the Hermes forum. I appreciate anyone points me at the right direction.
Thanks a bunch!

forum
The 8925 is a Kaiser so you're in the correct forum.

The AT&T Tilt is just a re-brand of the HTC Kaiser phone. AT&T just names it the Tilt because it's hip and cool and something they can put a (TM) next to on packaging.

Thanks....
ceelo2007 & jon_k,
Thank you....awesome!

They should update the names that we call some of these devices so new people can see. Like instead of just 8525 it could be "At&t/Cingular 8525". You know?

heh...
I spent quite a bit of time figuring out if this was the right area at first too. They really need to add Tilt to the models next to Kaiser....

The naming conventions for the forums seem to be by HTC development codenames.
XDA-devs deals with many different models of HTC devices which have been re-branded by many different providers and depends on the source and region of your particular device and service.
So this site tends to use the pre-release codenames to refer to all devices of the same general hardware family. Hence the Tilt can be called a TytnII or a Kaiser or a Vario III, 8925...etc... with only minor diffs in hardware/software.

Why can't they have all the names known for the device so there would be less confusion? (Start with the new ones and go down from their)

To avoid posts from people who are incapable of identifying what device they have. As well as "their" from "there". lol

Ahh, you caught me. . ., also there already is .
*I* know there is a wiki but do others?

Maybe they know but there not sure if it's over they're -------> or over their <------.

My opinion is that these forums are pretty technical, and if you can't properly identify your model, you probably don't belong here. I know from my expertise in Motorola modding that I have been PM'ed countless times by 12 year old kids that decided they were going to mod, hex edit, or flash their phone, bricked it, and then PM'ed me for a magical fix before their parents found out.

Other than the name differential, I believe the Euro Kaiser has a camera on the front as well as the back for "video call". The tilt has the regular one in the back.

T-mobile Wing User

Hello All,
Just wondering if anyone would be willing to give me the step by step so I can update my ROM to Windows 6.1. It seems as though T-Mobile isn't going to release it anytime soon and I would really like to update my phone. More than anything I am looking for a ROM that has the threaded SMS. I have never flashed my phone before so there is no way to get too simple in breaking down the steps. Anyone willing to help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much for your time and hard work!

This is the HTC S730 Wings not the t mobile wing. I think that the wing is the same as the HTC hermes, but just google that yourself. I state again: You are in the wrong section for the t mobile wing.

my apologies. actually it is the htc herald

Eh no worries, happens a lot.
However I believe the process is similar if you want to take a look at the HardSPL thread stickied at the top of this forum. However you should hit up the Tmo wing forum to see what the cookers have come up with for your phone.

Only 5 pages for cdma?

????
what does everybody own a gsm version?

all the cdma owners hang out over at ppcgeeks.com lol
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/forumdisplay.php?f=67

one could conclude that 80% of all wm issues people have are in no way related to what phone network they use and as such then can find help and programs in other forums then the one made for the phone they own

Supply and demand I guess... GSM coverage far outweighs that of CDMA.
Like Rudegar said, a lot of us simply hang out in the regular Diamond forums because not much is really carrier/network specific.

TP2 T-Mobile --- Use on ATT?

Damn, wrong forum. This should have gone in the general discussion forum. I'm really not sure why it's here, I must have been looking at two pages. Sorry.
A buddy has offered to sell me his TP2. He's on T-mobile, I'm on ATT. If he gets the unlock code, can I just pop in my ATT sim and start using it or do I need to do something else?
Also, once I get to know the phone I'll probably want to install one of the custom ROMs; are there problems with doing this?
Thanks in advance. Yes, I searched the forums. I have been active on the ATT TP forum, so I'm going to be new here! Hope this forum is as friendly as that one is!

yes put your sim card in and it will work, and no there is not any problems with flashing custom roms you just have to read the guides before you do anything, mostly if its your first time, first you have to HardSPL the fone if not done already, there is a guide for that, and then you should task29 the fone then flash xD also you can flash a radio, look through these forums and you will fine how to complete these, good luck!

Thank You!
Thank you! That's what I wanted to hear! I'm getting the phone tomorrow, so I look forward to checking this forum out more thoroughly!

The only other thing you may want to take note of is that you will not be able to access AT&T's 3G network on the T-Mobile Touch Pro2. The hardware radio does not support their 3G network. EDGE and GPRS will work fine, however.
